We just said goodbye to our good friends Thomas and Carolyn Massie.
The civil war in the Republican Party is successfully gutting the true America Firsters, like myself, Thomas and others.
But I don’t think most Americans realize the extent of what’s happening, how bad it is, and what it’s going to produce.
After taking the hard principled stand against war with Iran in June 2025 and releasing the Epstein files, the neocon controlled Republican establishment now backed by the President set out to destroy us.
Thomas and I took two different routes but ended up in the same place, which delivered a message to our colleagues to never go against the President even on issues he himself promised to do and at the same time delivered the louder stronger message to the American people that no matter what they say on tv, rally stages, committee hearings, campaign ads, or stump speeches, Republicans and Trump have overwhelmingly rejected America First and will do anything possible to cut the head off of anyone who tries to fly its banner.
The extent and extremes to which they have gone should shock everyone.
For me, I was Trump’s loudest champion for years supporting him when no one else would, voting with him 98% of the time, and he called me a traitor for releasing the Epstein files, refusing to support war with Iran, and fighting against the White House’s bad policies that only serve their donors like a 10 year moratorium on state rights to regulate and make laws on AI and data centers.
And yet my perfect conservative voting record, legislative accomplishments like the House passing my articles of impeachment of Biden’s DHS Secretary that oversaw the invasion of our country, passing my bill making it a felony to trans children under 18, my work as DOGE Chair defunding waste fraud and abuse and so much more, suddenly meant nothing to low educated Republicans that are easily manipulated by bot armies and bought and paid for social media influencers that spread absurd lies about me.
After supporting the Republican Party by paying all of my dues to the NRCC every Congress, endorsing and campaigning for Republican candidates, and spending millions and traveling the country to get Trump elected, to be called a traitor and not a single Republican (even the ones I helped get elected like JD Vance and others) not to utter a word of public support for me, it became abundantly clear that the Republican Party is something I can no longer support and want nothing to do with.
None of my policy views have changed, but everything changed about the man I supported to be president and the party I supported to gain the majority.
They are all under full capture and control.
And if you refuse to be captured and controlled with them, then their captors will set out to kill you, and the party sits in silence while it happens.
What they just did to Thomas Massie is unforgivable. I saw it all coming early, had just watched my friend Charlie Kirk assassinated, and knew they were going to do all of it and probably worse to me too, so I refused to allow it to happen to me, my family, and my district, so I resigned.
But Thomas stayed in the fight and they slaughtered him with tens of millions of foreign donor dollars that fueled lies, slander, character assassination, and even broke their own laws to do it.
They told lies to Kentucky’s 4th district that Massie had turned into a liberal Democrat, voting for Democrat policies, and even made vicious lying illegal AI ads showing him in a sexual relationship with AOC and Ilhan Omar.
Even though ALL of it was horrific lies proven wrong with his own 14 year impeccable America First liberty driven voting record, naive older voters in his district were easily fooled by the AIPAC and Israel funded campaign lies, and voted for a new candidate who refused every single debate with Thomas Massie and has no voting record to prove what he stands for at all.
The capture is complete.
What will you do about it?
This week alone:
DOJ opens an investigation into the woman Trump raped.
The White House is caught steering a $620 million contract to Don Jr.’s firm.
The Pentagon hands out a $10 billion contract after Trump buys stock in the company.
Foreign governments are caught funneling hundreds of millions into a random JPMorgan account tied to Trump’s “Board of Peace” with no oversight.
It’s just Thursday.
The corruption isn’t hidden anymore. It’s happening out in the open.
@49ersSpin The Majority aren't saying the players can't/won't be good, they may pan out. The problem is that this FO drastically reaches in drafts.
If I go to a decent restaurant & pay $30 for a Cheeseburger, it doesn't mean the burger won't taste good, but I still overpaid.
@SourdoughSpam@MaioccoNBCS Such a good pick to have. You either A) Get EXACTLY who you want Day2, no stress or B) Get added value in a trade back after teams re-review their boards and get FOMO for a player and knowing other teams could be calling SF for the pick 🔥
I don’t care who the president is, what party they come from, or what their policies are towards “my thing.”
I’m against unnecessary wars sold to the public on false pretenses.
And this supersedes everything else in my mind.
If that means I now have TDS, then sign me up.
Joe Rogan just said the quiet part out loud:
A man brought here as a baby. Lived in the U.S. for 20 years. Can’t speak Spanish. No criminal record. Deported anyway.
That’s not “border security.”
That’s ripping someone out of the only country they’ve ever known and dumping them in a place that isn’t home.
@Graham_SFN Looks like a depth signing for sure. With that said...
Incoming - "49ers wait til 5th Rd to address OL in the 2026 NFL draft, citing: "We feel great about our FA additions & the impact they'll make on our upcoming season"... 😂🤣😂🤣☠️☠️☠️ 😭
@TylerCLaRocca Just to make sure I understand.. You're saying Purdy can't toss a severely underthrown ball to a WR who had the DB badly beaten & had to come back to the ball to make a contested jump-ball catch?🤔 - Certainly a comment. Also.. The internet is fun, huh - https://t.co/PpzjkcHTIO
Can’t believe some people aren’t excited about Mike Effin Evans. Dude should still have plenty in the tank, esp given his games not based on speed. 49ers NEED weapons & he’s one of the best in the business in the Red Zone.
People saying he’s injury prone? He had 11 straight 1,000 yd seasons because HE PLAYS. Last yr was a freak one off & he came back & finished the season like a champ. Happy to bring this Super Bowl champ aboard!
Gotta check the contract numbers, but I’m all in on this move. HOF player!
The #49ers are paying Mike Evans $10M less per year than they would’ve paid Brandon Aiyuk.
Evans is better.
Evans has championship pedigree.
Evans is a future HOFer & an incredible influence on the young WR room.
This might be my favorite signing of the Lynch/Shanahan era.
Mike Evans game has always been being one of the best route runners in the game and using his large frame for leverage. This is the kind of route running he brings and will be tasked with teaching to the young guys, playing as a true X, here.
There’s podcast dudes right at this very moment complaining that the 49ers signed Mike Evans—mad because they wanted freaking Wan’Dale Robinson or some Day 3 green wideout from a state university they’ve got on their automated mock draft.
I can’t even. Get these individuals off my feed, man.
Can you, the people, “vote your way out of this?”
Honestly, not if you get your news from these folks.
The swamp has tricks for deceiving the public, and most even work on congressmen. Here’s an example of how Laura and Greg played along as happy tools of the swamp.
Please ask yourself why your own congressman has never talked about this. He either hasn’t gotten this far in the game (80% chance), or he likes the way the swamp obscures what’s going on (10% chance), or he dislikes the system but the price he’d pay for telling you is too high (10% chance). If a congressman sees this post and wants to debate me, I accept!
The House has rules we adopt at the beginning of each Congress. Honestly we should just use those - some go all the way back to Thomas Jefferson. Some are like Robert’s Rules of Order which branched from House rules a century ago. But we have a rules committee that modifies the rules every week. I served on the rules committee for two years. When I was on the committee, I refused to vote for rules changes if the purpose was to mislead or obscure. Every week, the rules committee bends the rules to suit the Speaker, but you can’t place the blame just on the committee or the Speaker. Every rules change must be approved by the whole House with a majority vote.
Rank and file congressmen are told to vote for these rules modifications each week for the sake of party loyalty because the rules are temporarily modified by the majority to keep the minority from using the permanent rules against us. This is partly true, so most congressmen never question beyond this.
Typically, every week the rules committee meets before other committees and writes a rules package to protect bills that will come to the floor that week. Then the whole house votes on this rules package early in the week before significant legislation comes to the floor. The vote is typically on party lines. Sometimes a block of congressmen in the majority will take the rules package hostage and withhold their vote to get something else that has nothing to do with the rules. I’m not a big fan of this, but after 13 years, my hands aren’t completely clean of this tactic.
The high-road position that I try to maintain is that if the rules package is bad, you shouldn’t vote for the rules package, and in general you shouldn’t withhold your vote from a rules package if there’s nothing wrong with the rules package… even if you disagree with the policy that is enabled to come to the floor by the rules package.
There are more details, but that’s all you need to know to understand what I’m going to explain next.
This week the Speaker wanted to do two things outside of our base rules, so he put those inside of the rules package that also had the rules for bringing bills like the popular SAVE Act to the floor, knowing members would be afraid to vote against something associated with SAVE. THIS IS INTENTIONAL.
The Speaker wanted to circumvent the National Emergencies Act of 1976 to avoid voting on tariffs and he wanted to turn off the ban on bringing a spending bill to the floor the same day it’s introduced.
The first rules package that came to the floor this week failed because myself and other republicans objected to it. The rules committee met again, wrote a new rules package without the tariff-trick, and we voted on the second rules package. I voted no but internet goons, like clockwork, characterized this as a vote against the SAVE Act.
The swamp used that second rules package to give them authority to pass a bill before anyone could read it. They hid that authority inside the rule for the SAVE act because they knew people like Laura and Greg would help them disparage anyone who didn’t go along.
If you fell for Laura and Greg’s slop you were cheering for the Pelosi doctrine that we should pass bills to see what’s in them. If the rules package had failed, the rules committee would have written a better one and SAVE Act would have still come to the floor.
