Rep. Thomas Massie: Battling the Treachery of Trump’s Republican Party, AIPAC, and the Epstein Class

Tucker Carlson opens by critiquing how events like the ongoing "Iran war" benefit a small elite—hedge fund managers like Bill Ackman and market insiders betting on oil futures and peace rumors—while most Americans face higher costs and debt. He notes manipulated markets keeping oil under $100 despite disruptions, rigged against retail investors, and questions unprosecuted 9/11 shorts. Amid credit card debt at 23% interest for 111 million adults and looming AI-driven white-collar job losses, Carlson interviews Rep. Thomas Massie, facing a Kentucky Republican primary in 13 days.

Massie's Primary Fight Against Outsider Money

Massie, with past primary wins of 75-81%, now leads by one point after opponents spent $10 million, mostly from AIPAC-linked super PACs like MAGA Kentucky (funded by Miriam Adelson, Paul Singer, John Paulson) and the Republican Jewish Coalition. Total spending could hit $30 million, the costliest congressional Republican primary ever. Massie's 33,000 small donors average $94; his opponent raised ~$2.5 million directly but funnels AIPAC money via vendors like Democracy Engine. Ads distort Massie's record—e.g., claiming he opposed defunding minor sex changes (removed in Senate version he also opposed)—and include AI-generated videos depicting him with AOC and Ilhan Omar. Opponent, a former Navy SEAL, avoids debates and questionnaires on abortion, guns.
