I’m sorry if you’re a Republican and don’t want to hear this but the National Debt is $3.6 Trillion higher than when Trump took office 18 months ago. Here’s the 90 second speech I gave the night they passed the Big Bankruptcy Bill.
Let me explain this absurd ruse: The Pentagon is pretending there have been two Iran wars separated by a brief cease-fire.
The reality: By going more than 90 days without congressional authorization @SecWar IS BREAKING THE LAW and must be held accountable.
This is absurd. Every piece of voter data Trump mentions here, as well as which elections each voter voted in, is readily available in Kentucky for a small fee.

More money is being spent to defeat @RepThomasMassie than any other U.S. House member in history.
Not because he can single-handedly change legislative outcomes—he has just one vote.
But because he exposes the lies and corruption of those who hold political and financial power.
Don't be fooled... NOT a so called "wealth" or "billionaire" tax. There is no min income threshold. This is a tax on savings, working families building security and small businesses.
It’s a really sad state that our country is in when both political parties are using redistricting as their main strategy to win midterms.
Both parties are not presenting strong cases as to why their policies and accomplishments are why the American people should vote for them.
No instead they are spending fortunes, fighting it out in state legislatures and courts, and redrawing district lines strictly based on how they think they can get the most votes completely based on historically Republican or Democrat counties, cities, and even neighborhoods.
It has turned into nothing more than team sports.
Not good policies.
Not good accomplishments for the American people.
Nothing tangible.
And that’s because BOTH parties have failed miserably.
Both parties have buried America in debt at nearly $40 trillion.
Both parties wage and fund foreign wars that have nothing to do with America,
Both parties are filled with corruption and scandals.
And both parties are completely captured by rich donors, corporate lobbies, and foreign donors and interests.
So many Americans are fully disgusted with both parties to the point they don’t even want to vote, but have no where to turn.
There has never been a better time than now to begin the development of support for independent candidates.
Candidates that run on issues and not team jerseys.
Candidates that refuse to be ensnared by the political industrial complex.
Candidates that truly are for Americans.
While yes this is no easy task, but it’s coming to the point where there is no other option but to break the two party system and build something new to support Americans.
If Kamala Harris were president and went to war with Iran, Thomas Massie would still vote for a war powers resolution to rein her in. The difference? Most Republicans probably would too. Massie’s consistent. It's not about who is president.
Everything is so expensive because the government spends too much.
Inflation is a tax on working folks, which is why I vote against the things that cause inflation.
Common sense!
Last night between midnight and 2am, they tried to pass two bad versions of FISA…
Both would have allowed Feds to unconstitutionally spy on Americans.
We stopped both versions, but the fight isn’t over. Eventually, it was decided to give them two more weeks to fix FISA.
Some are criticizing me for having a conversation with @mtgreenee on @kaitlancollins.
But we can't preach about dialogue and civility if we are not willing to engage with people with different viewpoints and try to find common ground.
I defend our joint appearance. @kasie
(4) Personally? I want fellow humans to be happy.
𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗕𝗘 𝗬𝗢𝗨 as long as you don't impact others. 📷 Government should NOT favor one lawful way of life over another. Best protects liberty when most simple: Protect natural rights of humans. Defend due process.
Simple test: Are you an adult? Does your pursuit of life, liberty and happiness interfere with someone else's pursuit of life, liberty and happiness?
If the answer is NO, then what you do in your personal life is none of my business.

Lehigh County Commissioner @RonBeitler has been writing a series of Facebook posts about political polarization, gerrymandering, the exhausted middle & challenges of reform. His comments echo much of what we hear from other supporters. Here's the first.

“The entire system is structured to perpetuate power.”
That’s the core problem with Congress today. It’s focused on protecting incumbents, enforcing party loyalty, and sustaining the two-party duopoly—not on representing the American people and upholding the Constitution.
Spoke about “The Two-Party Problem” last month at @richmondforum with @AndrewYang and @Sen_JoeManchin.
What one change to the rules or incentives would you make first to actually fix it?

The FBI just acknowledged that the federal government buys Americans' location data in its testimony to the Senate Select Subcommittee on Intelligence.
This is a clear violation of the Fourth Amendment and is why I introduced the Government Surveillance Reform Act - to close the data broker loophole that allows intelligence agencies to buy Americans' private data.
The debt passed $39 trillion today.
Paying a trillion dollars of interest annually on this debt causes hardship for tax-payers and robs us of resources that could otherwise be used for infrastructure or national defense. And ultimately, this debt will enslave our grandchildren.
