Honestly, I have no idea. Other than voting against the One Big Beautiful Bill.

I think we need to look at the new wife - Carolyn Grace Moffa. This is the info that I find on AI: Carolyn Grace Moffa is a seasoned political staffer and communications professional with more than a decade of experience in Republican policy spaces. Here are some details of her background: Early professional background. Moffa developed her career in Washington, D.C., and within conservative policy networks beginning in her early twenties. Roles. She worked in Republican legislative offices, held communications and constituent service roles, contributed to message drafting and policy research, and supported issue-based outreach for national-level policymakers. Previous positions. Moffa was a member of Sen. Rand Paul's staff from 2011 to 2016. Current position. She is helping Massie reestablish ducks and chickens on his Kentucky farm, which also raises beef cattle.

Any further questions about prior work positions and I get nada.

I did get this tidbit of information: In February 2026, President Donald Trump blamed her for the congressman's alleged shift to the left, calling her a "radical left 'flamethrower'". The only thing I see that’s “odd” is she is 36 and Massie is 55. She has never been married and doesn’t have kids. I had read that she was a lefty and had scrubbed her social media posts after getting engaged or married but I have no way to verify that information.

Anyway, I’m lost on this one.
