I have long wondered about Thomas Massie and I've been firmly on the fence in terms of my opinion of him.
No longer.
He complained about Maduro's capture today: https://x.com/RepThomasMassie/status/2007469970364539092
While the White House & the President have done an extremely poor job of explaining to the American people what the attacks on narco boats are really about, Massie knows.
Specifically he knows the two reasons President Trump is doing what he's doing:
-
The Cartels have more influence on the U.S. than nearly every other foreign country. They wield enormous power on American politicians and policy and many of their foot soldiers serve as private assassins on our soil.
-
The hub of Western voter fraud is Venezuela. Dominion is legally based in Venezuela and election data flows through the country.
Trump is destroying the influence of the cartels and crippling international voter fraud.
Thomas Massie KNOWS this. He MUST know this. If he doesn't, he's an imbecile and he doesn't strike me as an imbecile.
So while I long wondered if he was simply a Constitutional Zealot (there are worse things one can be) or simply a deep state gadfly in sheep's clothing, I no longer wonder.
History, and the actual principles upon which our government and Republic was established, are not exposition, they are facts forgotten by most Americans today. Global politics have always been a thing, but they do not negate the absolutes of the limits of delegated power.
That is a fact.
“We may be tossed upon an ocean where we can see no land -- nor, perhaps, the sun or stars. But there is a chart and a compass for us to study, to consult, and to obey. That chart is the Constitution.” ~ Daniel Webster (1782-1852) US Senator
“A constitution defines and limits the powers of the government it creates. It therefore follows, as a natural and also a logical result, that the governmental exercise of any power not authorized by the constitution is an assumed power, and therefore illegal.” ~ Thomas Paine (1737-1809) US Founding father, pamphleteer, author
Hopefully this results in a massive trove of evidence regarding the stolen elections, massive corruption, and the planned destruction of our Republic by the communist democrats.
My hope is that once we are able to restore our Republic that the Constitution will be restored to the inviolable Law of the Land it was intended to be.
