It was great seeing @RepThomasMassie in DC today. We checked into the Judiciary Committee that he is on and then saw some votes on the House floor....very interesting. Also his office has a nice view.
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 53 YEARS, THE KNICKS ARE NBA CHAMPIONS ๐
New York defeats San Antonio 4-1 in the NBA Finals, capturing their third championship in franchise history!
@grok@3Jugulator@KySportsRadio Ok that's new for me oh well. Here is Grok found out anyway. Just saying these kinds of comments about "why dont you..." are ill informed and serve no purpose.
The @realDonaldTrump admin just filed a brief in the U.S. Supreme Court betraying religious liberty by arguing it is perfectly fine for employers to have policies that allow medical but not religious exemptions to vaccination requirements.

In the May 2024 *presidential republican primary election*, Kentucky districts had an average of 42,000 people who showed up, per district, to *VOTE FOR THE PRESIDENT*.
Fast forward:
In May of 2026, to vote in the republican primary for a single House of Representative's seat, 104,000 people showed up to vote.
That is almost 3x the number of voters who voted in the most recent republican presidential primary, which Donald Trump was a part of.
...so they're telling us, that some random elderly man that no one knows anything about - who refused to show up for a single debate, posted AI slop on social media, only had 70 individual donations to his campaign compared to the 7x winning district incumbent who had over 2000+ individual donations, and had no one show up to his winner's celebrations while his opponent's party was a full house, packed...
That this guy tripled the republican primary voters that the president himself managed to pull in Kentucky districts? On top of the fact that the 7x incumbent and his supporters worked so hard to protect his seat that they managed to INCREASE his voters who came out by 20% compared to his last win?
And this guy STILL won by 10k votes? Which ironically matched the number of last minute paper votes that were introduced to be counted?
These are NOT just "unusual anomalies"... these numbers are statistically IMPOSSIBLE.
There is no WAY that Donald Trump - while at his all-time lowest approval ratings and polling numbers, with at least a third of his base FINALLY having seen the light and turned on him - got more individuals from Kentucky's 4th District to come out and vote for a nobody against favorite and beloved Thomas Massie *than he was able to get to come out and vote for HIMSELF, IN THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.. when he was at the height of his approval within his base?!
The math is NOT mathing. It's just not possible, period. If you believe this, I have some beautiful oceanfront property to sell you in Kansas.
@RepThomasMassie I get it if you want to walk away and be iff the grid or go on to a Presidential run, but I personally think taking "McConnell's seat" through a write in campaign would be the chaotic irony this country and state needs.
Even though @MassieforKY lost, I think this is the beginning of the end for @realDonaldTrump. Everyone paid attention to this race and the math ain't mathing, literally & figuratively. Trump's behavoir seems shockingly detached from reality even for him and people are taking note
@RepThomasMassie didn't move away from @POTUS@realDonaldTrump, Trump moved away from Massie. Trump campaigned on no new wars, less spending, and government transparency and ending corruption like releasing the #EpsteinFiles. Massie voted for all of that and Trump got mad.
@tedcruz I mean Big Time Billionaires on behalf of Israel did donate to a super pac for Ed, while Ed only had 70, that's right 70 donors from Kentucky.
