Thomas Massie: The Last America First Congressman

from Metamodernism Uncensored · host Sean Dempsey

What happens when the one politician who actually votes the way he campaigns gets destroyed by his own movement?In this explosive episode, we examine the rise and fall of Congressman Thomas Massie… the man many supporters called the last true America First constitutionalist in Washington. While Republicans and Democrats alike voted for trillion-dollar spending bills, foreign aid packages, warrantless surveillance, and endless debt, Massie kept asking a dangerous question: "Is this constitutional?"His reward? Being branded a RINO by the very political movement he helped champion.From opposing aid to Ukraine and Israel while America sank beneath $39 trillion in debt, to forcing Congress to vote on the release of the Epstein files, Massie repeatedly challenged both parties, powerful donors, foreign interests, and even President Trump himself. In return, Washington's political machine unleashed more than $32 million to remove him from office.Was Massie a stubborn idealist, or the last politician in Washington who still believed what he said? Did the Republican Party abandon its principles, or did Massie refuse to adapt to political reality? And what does it say about the state of the republic when a congressman can be punished for voting against debt, war, secrecy, and government expansion?This is the story of Thomas Massie, the battle for the soul of the America First movement, and the uncomfortable question few are willing to ask:For if Thomas Massie wasn't America First, who is?Read the full op-ed by Sean Dempsey here: https://the-opposition.com/2026/06/thomas-massie-the-last-america-first-congressman/
