Massie Delivers Trump a Major Warning After His Primary Defeat

Despite losing his primary battle Tuesday night, Representative Thomas Massie came out swinging in his concession speech. The Kentucky congressman came out to chants of “Massie, Massie!” from his supporters, and referenced AIPAC’s backing of his Trump-endorsed opponent, Ed Gallrein. “I would’ve come out sooner, but I had to call my opponent and concede, and it took a while to find Ed Gallrein in Tel Aviv,” Massie quipped . “I did get the call through though, I have called and conceded the race. We’ve been honorable the whole time, and we’re gonna stay that way.” Massie: I would have come out sooner but I had to call my opponent to concede and it took a while to find him in Tel Aviv pic.twitter.com/DmTkDfS17a — Acyn (@Acyn) May 20, 2026 Massie drew the ire of the president after breaking with him on key issues, including aid to Israel, the war in Iran, and perhaps most notable of all, the Epstein files. Trump attacked Massie relentlessly and practically campaigned in his backyard, but the congressman didn’t let up on his stances. Despite his loss, Massie vowed to press on in his final seven months on the job. “By the way, today is

House Republican gives Trump 'bad news' and vows to 'kill' his fund to pay off MAGA allies

GOP voters 'at a loss for words' as MS NOW reveals their ignorance about Trump's candidate

Speaking with host Antonia Hylton on Wednesday afternoon, MS NOW’s Mychael Schnell pointed out that many Republicans who voted to oust Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) were woefully ignorant about the reasons for voting for his opponent and cast their votes purely based on the president's endorsement. Reporting from Kentucky about the pivotal election that will likely hand Massie’s House seat to political neophyte Ed Gallrein, Schnell said that there was a great deal of misinformation that formed voters’ decisions, including a belief that Massie had voted to impeach Trump which is not true.

Democrats Move to Force Republicans on the Record on Trump Slush Fund

Democrats are moving quickly to force congressional votes on President Donald Trump’s ridiculously corrupt slush fund. After Trump’s $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS resulted in the creation of a $1.8 billion pool of taxpayer money for him to essentially dole out to his allies at a whim, Democrats want to force Republicans to go on the record about whether they support such blatant fraud. In the House, Representative John Larson has announced what Democrats are literally calling the SLUSH FUND Act, which would tax the fund at 100 percent, returning every dollar back to the government. “The President should be focused on public service, not personal gain and profit,” Larson wrote in a press release. “Never in our nation’s history has a sitting president sought a settlement against their own government. Hardworking American taxpayers should not have to write blank checks to Trump, his cronies, and violent January 6th insurrectionists who attacked our Capitol.” Jamie Raskin, a ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, told The New Republic that he plans to submit another bill to block the slush fund and any future efforts to create similar pools of money. “We need to put Republicans on the spot as
