BREAKING: Republican Rep. Thomas Massie torches Trump for using YOUR money to pay for deranged pro-MAGA political ads.
This is jaw-dropping corruption…
“Don’t worry, using taxpayer dollars to run ominous campaign ads of the President has been done before and is completely legal… in banana republics,” Massie wrote on X.
The congressman — who lost his primary bid in large part due to his outspoken advocacy for releasing the Epstein files and his criticisms of Israel — was responding to a newly released ad that played on television.
The spot prominently features Trump presented as a Messianiac figure standing between the United States and apocalyptic ruin. It aired during two NFL games over the weekend and prominently features the words “Paid for by the U.S. government.
“We will cast out the communists, Marxists, and fascists,” Trump, a pedophiliac fascist, intones in the ad.
Even more absurdly, he rambled about how he will help this country defeat “the warmongers” and “deep state.” This is a man who launched an illegal war of aggression against Iran for the benefit of Israel. He’s a mass murderer who slavishly serves the military-industrial complex, which is the only “deep state” that really matters.
“We will throw off the sick political class that hates our country. We will rout the fake news media, and we will liberate America from these villains once and for all,” Trump added.
Even by the standards of our hyperpolarized, degraded political discourse, this ad is unhinged. It would be bad enough if Trump were using his political war chest for this kind of messaging, but instead he reached into our collective pocket and took the money for it. It’s blatantly illegal.
Those tax dollars could have been spent on healthcare for financially embattled Americans, free school lunches for hungry children, road repairs, or a million other genuine priorities. Instead, they’ve been set on fire to propagandize for the worst President in history.
As for their part, the White House is insisting that the campaign ads “are very clearly not campaign ads” but are instead public service announcements. Right.
When Democrats retake power we need to immediately investigate this abuse of tax dollars and prosecute everyone involved.
Please ❤️ and share to demand an investigation!
The hypocrisy is unbelievable.
Some descendants of European settlers constantly complain about “illegal immigration” while standing on Indigenous land and behaving as though their ancestors were the original inhabitants. They demand walls, deportations, and the defense of a “homeland” their own ancestors entered through colonization, warfare, broken treaties, and forced displacement.
Native peoples were here long before the United States, immigration laws, border checkpoints, or MAGA hats existed. Indigenous nations had governments, territories, languages, economies, and civilizations thousands of years before Europeans arrived.
So, if you are truly worried about people entering someone else’s homeland, perhaps you should first acknowledge whose homeland you are standing on.
You cannot celebrate settler immigration while condemning today’s immigrants. You cannot tell others to “go back where they came from” while refusing to confront where your own ancestors came from.
That is not patriotism. That is hypocrisy.
