Massie Goes Down With Honor

Many political figures do not really believe in anything. They craft their campaign platforms based on what they think voters want to hear, then abandon those commitments the moment doing so seems advantageous. Spending ten years promising not to start a war with Iran, then doing precisely that within 14 months of taking office, is a prime example. 

Thomas Massie is not one of those politicians. The Kentucky representative has spent his entire congressional career opposing globalism, reckless spending, and pedophile protection, and he stuck to those principles even when the Republican establishment decided to hate him for it. Massie knew his integrity could cost him his job, but that was a price he was willing to pay. He refused to sell out.

Congressman Massie suffered the punishment for his honesty on Tuesday, losing his GOP primary to globalist plant Ed Gallrein. Despite being too cowardly to debate, Gallrein won by a nine-point margin thanks to the Israel lobby flooding the race with at least $15 million worth of anti-Massie propaganda. Like Donald Trump, Gallrein will spend his time in office as a slave to Israel. Massie will continue to live freely.
