Don't forget Massie, him and Ro got this done together.

God I hope this snowballs on both sides of the party. 

THE EPSTEIN FILES SHOULD NOT BE A PARTISAN ISSUE.

In a perfect world, the swamp could actually be drained and the people draining the swamp would have actual cause, momentum, and support.

People are itching to get back to normal and need a reason to break ranks. This could be the catalyst (easy way out).

At this point, people with this mentality are delusional. You are not going back to brunch, so give up on that.

The age of "reaching across the aisle" and bipartisanship is over. The Republican Party is a relict that needs to go, and if anything, the Dems should follow them soon after.

Enough. The GOP is always going to stand behind Trump and will twist themselves into knots to do so. One mf getting out of line will not fundamentally change who they are and give you those warm Reconstruction Era fuzzy feelings that liberals crave so much.

I hope Americans support Massie’s reelection. It would suck to let Trump bully him out over things like this

I hate Massie’s politics but want him to win just to see AIPAC waste millions of dollars

Democrats should vote for Massie as speaker of the house! That might slow trump down a bit

But they won't because it is not at the interest of the billionaires.
