Thomas Massie, facing Trump’s opposition, gets a hand from billionaire megadonor.
Kentucky's U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie was one of two House Republicans to vote against President Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act in July. In March, Massie spoke to reporters after casting the sole Republican vote against a bill that averted a government shutdown.
FRANKFORT — A super PAC supporting U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie has won crucial backing from one of the biggest Republican mega-donors — a man who has the wherewithal to offset millions of dollars that Republican President Donald Trump is trying to raise to beat Massie in the spring primary elections.
That man is Jeff Yass, who recently — and indirectly — gave $1 million to a new super PAC that in recent weeks has been advertising in support of Massie’s reelection, according to records filed with the Federal Election Commission. Those records show Yass has set aside millions more in what could potentially be used for additional independent spending to help reelect Massie.#TrendingTopic #TRUMP #usa #BTC $BTC
