Cross-pollinating ideas that promote health, education, social enterprise, and liberty

Why in the world does a Republican controlled House decide to advance a bill that only 8% of Republicans voted for?

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

I just voted against the Ukraine Support Act tonight. It sends over $9 billion of your dollars overseas, and includes $250 million for Radio Free Europe, a Cold War relic that benefits no American.

@PCKY40031 @RepThomasMassie @WhiteHouse Given the most recent strikes that occurred today, I’d say the White House is delusional if they are claiming the war is over.

Just like I know the difference between male and female, I know the difference between war and peace.

We’re allowed to think for ourselves.

Matt Brooks bragging that the Republican Jewish Coalition spent millions to buy a congressional seat in Kentucky… but if you observe the same thing, you’re antisemitic.

[Bob Good @RepBobGood]

Trump is actually endorsing the RINOs

[Thomas Davis @TomDavisMD]

This didn’t age well. Saw this on the car next to us at @Dollywood

Not sure how Republicans intend to survive these midterms. This isn’t what I voted for in 2024.

[Evan Kilgore 🇺🇸 @EvanAKilgore]

Who else believes the second Trump Administration has been a disaster so far?

I say this as a 3x Trump voter.

The past year has been filled with nothing but gaslighting, grifting, broken promises, and infighting.

I'm really not happy with the GOP right now.

Anyone agree?

[Thomas Davis @TomDavisMD]

@EricLDaugh Hopefully he doesn’t look at a mirror!

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

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.

@EricLDaugh Massie would likely win a rematch in 2028 after Ed Gallrein has a voting record and is forced to take a position on key issues.

[Thomas Massie for Congress @MassieforKY]

I filed with FEC for the 2028 House race.

This allows me to raise funds to continue my political operations supporting my position as a current office holder and as a potential candidate for federal office.

I haven’t made a final decision about which office to seek, if I run.

The 90’s really were the best years

[Today In History @historigins]

In 1998, the United States achieved its first federal budget surplus in 29 years, effectively ending a streak of deficits that had lasted since 1969. ⁠
⁠
This milestone was achieved under President Bill Clinton, following the passage of the Balanced Budget Act of 1997, which resulted in a fiscal surplus of approximately $69 billion for that year.⁠

Thomas Massie says standing by his principles was worth losing his primary.

And he warns Republicans could face a bloodbath in November due to growing “Trump Disappointment Syndrome” among groups like MAHA and DOGE supporters.

“It was absolutely worth it for me.”

“There’s a growing number of people on the right who have a form of TDS called Trump Disappointment Syndrome.”

“They’ve alienated MAHA by kowtowing to the pesticide manufacturers and the pharmaceutical manufacturers.”

“They’ve alienated the fiscal hawks by running DOGE out of town.”

“They’ve alienated the people who don’t wanna fight another war for other countries.”

“I’m worried that in November this is gonna cost the party a lot.”

“But for me, it was completely worth it, and I've got 7 more months to keep going against the grain, which means voting for principles and for people over party.”

@PCKY40031 @barnes_law @ky_statesman @JeffClarkUS Sad that this has become the officially adopted Republican sales pitch for November.

When Republicans control the presidency, House, and Senate, there should be a much more compelling reason to show up to the polls.

[Thomas Davis @TomDavisMD]

@PCKY40031 @barnes_law @ky_statesman @JeffClarkUS At the end of the day, even if the mounting evidence doesn’t convince one particular person, I suspect it will change a lot of minds come November.

I, for one, am severely disappointed in the contrast between campaign promises and reality.

[Thomas Davis @TomDavisMD]

@PCKY40031 @barnes_law @ky_statesman @JeffClarkUS Let’s keep adding some evidence to this embarrassment…

@PCKY40031 @barnes_law @ky_statesman Trump’s corruption is growing more obvious by the day.

Trump is proving himself to be as corrupt as a Mexican politician.

Last night, @RepThomasMassie gave me the first interview after his primary loss. This was after he spent HOURS taking photos and signing autographs for well over a hundred ppl who queued up to meet him. @kyenquirer @Enquirer @USATODAY
