Lew,

President Trump has announced he will work to primary Rep. Thomas Massie, the best, most liberty promoting member of Congress. Is it because Trump doesn’t like Massie’s principled stance opposing the CR, the massive spending bill that increases defense spending that Trump supports? Link:

Or is it because Massie has told AIPAC to stay out of his office and recommended the powerful Israeli lobby group register as a lobbyist for a foreign nation? Massie famously told Tucker Carlson every Republican congressman has an AIPAC babysitter. Link:

Massie is sticking to his conservative fiscal guns. Link:

He is joining Sen. Rand Paul to fight the spending bill. Link:

The bill funds all of Elon Musk’s DOGE cuts that has received so much publicity. Link:

The spending bill includes more funding for war. Link:

It funds USAID but not the wall on the southern border:
