Massie Is OUT | Paxton Gets the Nod | Senate GOP, You Don't Get to Cry | 5/20/26

Thomas Massie, Ken Paxton, Karoline Leavitt, Canada's euthanasia laws, and Marco Rubio headline today's A.M. Update. Trump scores another primary scalp as Ed Gallrein defeats Rep. Thomas Massie in Kentucky's 4th district — the most expensive House primary on record — while Trump simultaneously endorses Ken Paxton over incumbent Sen. John Cornyn in next week's Texas Senate runoff, leaving Senate Majority Leader John Thune visibly rattled. JD Vance steps in for Karoline Leavitt at the White House briefing and defends Trump's "I don't think about Americans' finances" comment for over an hour, and the NAACP calls for a student athlete boycott of Southern state universities over redistricting. A resurfaced comment from a Quebec College of Physicians member proposing euthanasia for disabled infants up to one year old prompts Aaron's broader warning about Canada's medically assisted dying laws and the slippery slope from allowance to coercion. Aaron closes with Marco Rubio's Rededicate 250 address tracing America's Christian foundation from the Puritans to the moon landing, and a sharp response to various voices crying about an ungovernable Senate: all you had to do was pass the SAVE Act.
