I spoke to McConnell for about 20 minutes this morning.
He said we should end the war with Iran, quit giving aid to Israel, stop spying on Americans without a warrant, and he’s really sorry about how my primary turned out.
The President’s Big Beautiful Bill, the Iran War, and Republican spending bills will create a $2 trillion budget DEFICIT in 2026.
Financing just the new debt costs more than all federal road & bridge projects, and we will be making those new interest payments each year, forever.
The last time debt hit these levels, America had just helped win a World War. What's our excuse today? Runaway spending. Bloated budgets. A uniparty that refuses to say no.
I've said no. I'll keep saying no. But I need Americans to demand better from their representatives.

Last week, I offered an amendment to fully fund ICE & Border Patrol, and be paid for by cutting wasteful foreign aid, refugee welfare, bloated NSF grants, and a bloated Department of Education.
27 Senate Republicans voted with the Democrats to kill it. 🧵
🚨Last night’s Rules Committtee resolution is a mixed bag, but if it passes the House today, there WILL BE A VOTE to strip the troubling state labeling ban & immunity shield for pesticides ☠️ from the Farm Bill.
Tell your congressman to VOTE YES ✅for the Luna amendment! #MAHA
Back in 2016 at the @NRA Annual Meeting, I made clear what I still believe today: you cannot defend the Second Amendment without defending the entire Bill of Rights. The right to bear arms stands alongside free speech, religious liberty, and freedom from unreasonable search. Weaken one, you weaken them all.
Thomas Massie just delivered an urgent call to action:
“Americans are under attack by a German company.”
Bayer-Monsanto.
“People this week should be calling their congressmen … and saying, take the glyphosate immunity out of the Farm Bill.”
“It’s poison.”
“This administration has sided with the German company trying to get immunity from the harm that their products may cause.”
“Chellie Pingree and I … are trying to get them to strip the immunity for glyphosate that they’ve put into the Farm Bill.”
“Bayer’s product has become unprofitable because of the harm that state juries have decided has been caused to people.”
“And there’s something broader though than just glyphosate here.”
“This would set a precedent for every pesticide, every herbicide, every insecticide.”
“It would set a precedent that the EPA doesn’t exist to protect people and the environment.”
“It exists to give get-out-of-court-free cards to corporations.”
@MassieforKY@RepThomasMassie@RealLindellTV
If we’re Making America Healthy Again, government shouldn't be promoting glyphosate and providing liability immunity for corporations making it.
Thank you to @RepEliCrane for cosponsoring the No Immunity for Glyphosate Act.
Hey Teacher — time for a lesson.
"Grass-fed" indicates that cattle ate grass for a portion of their lives but may have been finished on — that is, switched to — a diet of grain, while "grass-finished" means the animals ate only grass throughout their lives. Grass-finished beef comes from cattle raised on a diet of grass and other foraged vegetation exclusively.
Grass-finished beef has higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, CLAs (conjugated linoleic acids — essential fatty acids that studies show inhibit cancer and fight body fat), and vitamins A and E.
Class is dismissed. 🔔
Thomas Massie at the Supreme Court this morning:
“The White House Chief of Staff worked for a lobbying firm that accepted money from Monsanto/Bayer. And that is wrong.”
This is the same Bayer that spent $9 million lobbying Congress to eliminate liability for Roundup cancer victims.
The same Susie Wiles. The same Pam Bondi.
Massie has been saying this for months.
Nobody in Washington wants to hear it.
Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth. #ApostolicJourney#Cameroon https://t.co/bKteFZ3iWE
So far this week:
Trump threatened to wipe out a civilization on Tuesday.
Announced a ceasefire on Wednesday.
Israel leveled parts of Beirut on Thursday.
Iran shut down the Strait of Hormuz, AGAIN.
Gulf states are still intercepting drones.
13 American service members are dead. Over 3,400 Iranians killed. 1,500 dead in Lebanon.
And this administration has the nerve to call this a win.
They light the world on fire and then take credit for calling the fire department.
Thomas Massie just declared: “This government is under siege.”
And he exposed Susie Wiles and Pam Bondi for taking “millions of dollars from Bayer.”
“All three branches of this government are under siege by lobbyists and lawyers from a German company named Bayer.”
“They spent over $9 million lobbying … so that they don’t have to be liable for any damages their herbicide Roundup causes.”
“The Constitution guarantees people a trial if they’ve been harmed.”
“Why are we contemplating going against the Constitution?”
“The Attorney General has opined favorably for this German company in front of the Supreme Court about getting rid of any liability that they should have for any damages.”
“By the way, the President’s Chief of Staff and the President’s Attorney General worked for one of the biggest lobbying firms that’s received millions of dollars from Bayer.”
“Maybe that’s why we’ve seen an executive order that says that the production of this chemical from this German company is a national defense priority.”
“And we know why they’re doing that.”
“It’s to keep them from having any liability.”
“This is wrong.”
“We shouldn’t succumb to the lobbyists, not in the executive branch, not in the judicial branch, and certainly not here in Congress.”
If we had a Congress full of @RepThomasMassie we would have:
Borderless Constitutional Carry
Reduced National Debt
Better Agricultural Policies
Healthier Food + Meat
Epstein Arrests
Medical Freedom
Single Issue Bills
Voter ID
Reduced Welfare State
No AIPAC handlers
That's why they hate him.
I have rarely seen a speech as cringe-inducing as the one @EdGallrein gave yesterday at the anti–@RepThomasMassie rally.
By now, it should be clear to everyone that Trump does not stand for American interests. Thomas Massie has a Freedom Score close to 100 percent and consistently advocates for the interests of American citizens.
This includes his stance against a war with Iran, his support for transparency regarding the Epstein files, his opposition to AIPAC, his stance against corruption and government waste, his opposition to an oversized state, and his support for maximum civil liberty.
Yet Trump chooses to strongly support a person who gives speeches like this and has nothing to show except funding from the Israeli lobby, in order to push the congressman who is arguably the most pro-American of all members of Congress out of office.
But sure, only a conspiracy theorist would think Trump is actually ‘Israel First.’
When Congress votes to increase spending, they’re voting to increase your taxes,
because you’ll pay for the additional spending through inflation and debt and taxes later, if not through taxes today.
I’m the only Member of the House who hasn’t voted to increase your taxes.
He explicitly says that he's "with Israel" over "isolationist" Americans. In a sane society that kind of statement would be the end of his political career. You shouldn't be pledging your undying loyalty to any foreign country at all, period, much less explicitly placing your loyalty to it over your loyalty to the constituents you were elected to serve.
Some days I wake up so happy that Israel has free Healthcare. I cant tell you how amazing it is to know that when they choose to attack another country we gladly dedicate our lives and treasure to fight for them. God's chosen people.
Never voting for an aipac candidate again.
