Massie was stabbed in the back

Massie doubles down on criticism of Israel-backed opponent​



Outgoing Republican Representative Thomas Massie has reiterated his criticism of pro-Israel lobbyists backing his opponent in a recent US primary election.

While conceding defeat in the primary race to Ed Gallrein on Wednesday, Massie quipped that he’d had trouble reaching his opponent “in Tel Aviv”, a reference to the pro-Israel lobby that financially supported Gallrein.

Massie, who angered Trump by criticizing US military action in Iran and Venezuela and backing efforts to release files related to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, will remain in Congress until the midterm elections in November.
