Thomas Massie Hits Back at Trump With Obvious Epstein Question

Representative Thomas Massie torched Donald Trump’s pathetic swipe at him in his outrageous Christmas post.
The president posted a special Christmas message
Thursday addressed to “the many Sleazebags who loved Jeffrey Epstein,”
and congratulated himself for “dropping” the convicted sex offender
“long before it was fashionable to do so.”
“When
their names get brought out in an ongoing Radical Left Witch Hunt (plus
one lowlife ‘Republican,’ Massie!) and it is revealed that they are
Democrats all, there will be a lot of explaining to do,” Trump wrote.
Massie, who was the only Republican who co-sponsored the Epstein Files Transparency Act,
a law compelling the Department of Justice to release every
unclassified document from its investigations into Epstein, hit back at
the president’s barb.
“Merry Christmas to you too Mr. President,” Massie wrote. “So… I’ve teamed up with radical left democrats to expose… Democrats. This 4D chess is fun!”
“What a novel idea to put country before party,” Democratic Representative Ro Khanna, who introduced the original bill, replied on X.
Massie
continued to mock Trump on Friday for taking time out of his holiday to
complain about him. “Imagine celebrating a blessed Christmas with your
family… suddenly phones alert everyone to the most powerful man in the
world attacking you… for fulfilling his campaign promise to help
victims!” Massie wrote from his campaign’s X account.
Trump Tries to Save His Disaster Peace Deals at Mar-a-Lago

President
Trump is holding two emergency summits next week at his Mar-a-Lago
estate—first with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and then with
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu—in a supposed effort to stop
two wars he’s failed to end.
Axios reports that Trump will host Zelenskiy on Sunday and Netanyahu on Monday.
Trump
has been claiming he is “close” to a peace deal between Russia and
Ukraine for almost a year—an embarrassing development for a war he
claimed he could end on his first day in office. The Ukrainian president
has said that a peace deal is “90 percent ready.” Only time—and the
Kremlin—will tell.
Meanwhile, Trump has been at a fork in the road in Gaza for two months, as Israel both continues to violate the ceasefire and plans to carry on its occupation and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in the region.
“We
are deep in Gaza, and we will never leave Gaza. We are there to defend,
to prevent what happened. We are standing, as we said,” Israel Defense
Minister Israel Katz said
just days ago. “We trust the rock of Israel and the IDF in defending
Israel in a fierce battle between jihadist enemies of this kind and
Israeli enemies of this kind.” It’s hard to picture Netanyahu doing
anything to push back on that threat.
Either
way, it’s clear that the man who campaigned for his own Nobel Peace
Prize is scrambling to end the two major international conflicts that
have plagued his second term so far.
Las Vegas is home to a lot that might raise a pair of eyebrows, but a
new art installation depicting Donald Trump as a naked, 43-foot-tall
marionette might raise them right off your face.
Made of foam over rebar and weighing approximately 6,000 pounds, the
gigantic naked Trump will travel the United States as part of the
“Crooked and Obscene Tour” but first, you can see it in person and in
the wild at 13460 Apex Harbor Ln in Las Vegas right now.
Per the tour’s organizers, portraying Trump in the nude “is
intentional, serving as a bold statement on transparency, vulnerability,
and the public personas of political figures.”
They also aim to spark conversation about “transparency—or lack
thereof—in politics, challenging viewers to think critically about
political influence,” according to press materials.
Those who can’t make it to Las Vegas will have opportunity to see it
on tour stops at other locations across the United States. Dates and
cities for the tour have not yet been announced. We’ll keep you posted.

This isn’t the first time a nude statute of Trump has appeared in
public, though it certainly dwarfs its predecessor. In 2016 Joshua
“Ginger” Monroe was hired at the art collective INDECLINE to create five life-size naked statues of the former president as part of a project called “The Emperor Has No Balls.”
The statues were put up without permits at locations in Seattle, New
York City, Cleveland, Los Angeles and San Francisco; naturally they were
soon removed by police.
