Thomas Massie is the Most MAGA Member of Congress
He is more dedicated to upholding what the president and his movement promised than any other leader. ...
You might wonder how Massie could be more MAGA than even Trump, when Trump in the past has called for Massie to be thrown out of the Republican Party?
When Trump did that, it was because Massie refused to support a bill that added $4 trillion in new spending. Trump had once promised to reduce the national debt.
Massie intended to keep that promise. ...
Trump once vowed to end sending U.S. weapons and aid to Ukraine, and to end that war. That war continues, as does U.S. weapons and aid to Ukraine.
Massie has consistently opposed sending U.S. dollars to Ukraine to fuel a war America should not be involved in. ...
Then there’s the Epstein Files. Needless to say, Trump and his cabinet once said they would be transparent, and later said there was nothing to see.
Massie sides with Ultra-MAGA and is demanding that all evidence on Epstein - while still protecting the victims and hiding their names - to be released to the public. Massie is not alone in this effort, and that pressure has caused the Trump administration to make significant changes in their approach.
There is one constant for Massie: He is always going to side with MAGA, as in adhere the original reasons so many voted for Donald Trump in the first place.
No matter how it might cost him politically or how much heat it brings. He doesn’t care.
America elected Donald Trump again in 2024 for particular reasons. Particular promises and a particular agenda.
am in DC and I will file the discharge petition today, Sept 2nd, at approximately 2pm when Congress officially returns from the August recess. At that point we can begin collecting the 218 signatures necessary to force a vote on binding legislation to release the Epstein files.
Thomas Massie just exposed the three uniparty billionaires spending millions against him.
“One is Miriam Adelson.”
“The other two are hedge fund managers from West Palm Beach and New York City.”
“And one of them … is in Epstein’s black book.”
“They are mad at me because I will not vote for foreign aid. I believe we need to spend our money here in America.”
“They have all given to pro-abortion Democrats.”
“One of them did a fundraiser for Chuck Schumer.”
“One of them donated the max donation to Liz Cheney after she voted to impeach Donald Trump.”
“Why would three billionaires spend millions of dollars against a congressman in Kentucky?”
“Because I am changing the narrative in Washington, D.C.”
“These are the billionaires who aren’t really Republican or Democrat.
They’re part of the uniparty.”
“They have a lot of influence in Washington, D.C. But I don’t think … they’re going to have any influence here.”
“So I’m standing here not running against three other candidates. I’m standing here running against three billionaires.”

Let’s call that West Palm Beach “hedge fund manager” by name - Paul Singer


This appears to stem from a misinterpretation or conflation of the administration's broader anti-DEI/transgender policies. Massie has a history of opposing federal mandates on transgender issues (e.g., voting against bills funding transing minors), but he supports private institutions like MIT making their own decisions. Context from Massie's Statements (Oct. 11, 2025): Massie tweeted congratulations to MIT for "turning down a bribe to let the executive branch dictate what happens on its campus," calling it "the world’s best technical school" and criticizing federal interference.
He doubled down on Oct. 12, clarifying: "I’m including my voting record on the topic of men in women’s sports" to preempt critics assuming his stance implies support for transgender policies.
No Bathroom Mention: Searches of his X posts and news coverage yield zero references to MIT bathrooms. The Trump proposal focused on sports, admissions, and anti-discrimination certifications (e.g., against "antisemitism," which Massie called Orwellian speech policing).
Massie's Broader Views: He has questioned transgender athletes in women's sports (e.g., a 2023 hearing clip) and opposed federal funding for gender-affirming care, aligning with conservative positions.
His MIT support is libertarian-leaning: Keep government out of private education.

Yeah, Jack is the one who made the final call to ban Trump from Twitter.
And many others before and after that.


Trump just doesn't like him because he keeps calling out AIPAC and Trump's questionable moves.
In a 2023 interview, Massie reiterated that E-Verify could be weaponized to monitor citizens, comparing it to a “national ID card” that could track employment and movement beyond immigration enforcement.
On June 8, 2025, he emphasized deporting criminals over E-Verify, saying: “I support a strong border, and agree strongly with deporting criminals,” but rejected E-Verify as a solution.
Massie’s objections are rooted in his libertarian philosophy, emphasizing limited government, individual privacy, and skepticism of federal programs. Massie argues E-Verify’s database, which cross-references Social Security numbers with federal records, could become a “backdoor national ID” system. He fears it might track all workers, not just immigrants, creating a government-controlled employment registry.
He’s noted historical abuses of similar systems (e.g., NSA surveillance), warning E-Verify could expand to monitor citizens’ activities beyond immigration enforcement.
Massie contends E-Verify doesn’t address root causes like illegal border crossings or criminal aliens. In his June 2025 post, he said it “won’t enforce immigration” and prioritized deportations instead.
He points to loopholes (e.g., stolen identities bypassing checks) and argues enforcement should focus on physical barriers and deportations, as seen in his support for H.R. 7511 (Laken Riley Act) and H.R. 5014 (cutting aid to Mexico for lax border control).
Did Thomas Massie Vote for an Amendment Doubling H-1B Spouses Eligible for Work Permits (7% to 15%)?
No, there is no evidence that Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) voted for such an amendment. Based on searches of congressional records, voting histories, and his public statements, no matching amendment exists in recent sessions (118th or 119th Congress, 2023–2025) related to H-1B spouse work permits (H-4 EAD program).
The 7% to 15% figure you mentioned appears to refer to unrelated provisions in the Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act (H.R. 1044/S. 386), which Massie co-sponsored in 2023. This bill adjusts per-country visa caps for family- and employment-based green cards (increasing family caps from 7% to 15% and eliminating the 7% cap for employment visas to reduce backlogs), but it does not address H-1B spouses' work authorization or double eligibility for permits.
Proposed Change in H.R. 1044 (2023): The bill increases the per-country cap for family-based immigrant visas from 7% to 15% of the total annual allocation (e.g., from ~15,820 to ~33,900 visas per country out of 226,000).
