Yeah. A "clown" who is exposing neocons as mere war puppets and...CLOWNS.
Massie is showing the world what real America-First looks like.

Jesus you're an idiot. He's voted against every NDAA since he's been in office, for the very reasons he lists in his amendments. But keep thinking Brian Kilmeade and Mark Levin Republicans will save us.

Why isn't Johnson(and therefore Trump) on board with these spending cuts to foreign entities???
MAGA has said over and over and over this was a top priority. Massie is just forcing you to show your hand.
EXACTLY.
The Cult HATES when the Globalist-necon puppet hand is exposed.
Johnson is just a rubber stamp mannequin and tool. Same ol' same ol' for GOP House "Leaders".

There is zero justification to send any money to another country when we're $40 trillion in debt.
Looking at it realistically.
You think it’s at all possible to eliminate it all in one swipe? Politically?
There is moving the needle and there is wasting time. A complete ban is unfortunately a waste of time currently.
Use a scalpel. Not a bomb. And be persistent with that scalpel.

It'll be impossible to "patch" up $37 trillion of debt (aka the looting of America.)
And it will be impossible to completely stop all foreign aid all at once.
So you want a process or nothing at all? That’s the question. We can tell and scream about foreign aid…. Mostly rightfully so… but it will absolutely not be stopped all at once. Not happening. It just isn’t realistic.
So begin a process. Not a waste of time.

You’re easily fooled as Massie has been in congress for years and just now calling for this. Again you’re free to ignore how silent he was before this last year. He also can blame the speaker when he didn’t even put his name in for it.

I’m also waiting on term limits. He will never push that though

The public sees it differently.
Trump needs to drop his neocon dreams and focus on the economy here.

And a high percentage of “the public” leaves me dumbfounded how they even manage to function in society at all.
Look. If this was possible. I’d be completely on board. But it’s just not. It just isn’t. Bummer that it’s not. But it’s not.
So begin a process of eliminating waste. We already nipped USAID, etc. Awesome. Got that done. Continue on with that.
Don’t waste time with what cannot possibly be done at once.

Yet, they determine elections. You dont seem to get the point.

And that’s both a blessing and a curse.
You know what else gets you a leg up in elections? Action. Promises and failure gets you nowhere. Bush 1 will attest to that.
Cutting USAID is action. Cutting the department of education is action. Cuts to “woke” initiatives is action. Reforms in entitlements is action. A continuation of that gets your voters back to the polls in the midterms.
Promising the world and sticking a pole in your bicycle front spokes causes your voters to not care and stay home while the other party takes back control.

And the public sees Trump fiddling around in the Caribbean and not focusing on the economy.

The "public" only cares about the economy. USAID cuts were awesome, but we havent touched entitlements, and most folks dont care about "wokeism" or the dept of education. In fact, I bet most people didnt even know there was one.

I agree with most of this. Hopefully he is flooding the system in the hopes of asking for all this in an attempt to get some of it, but I do not think that is what he is doing.
Massie likes to ask for everything, get nothing because he cannot make deals work, and then blame everyone.
he will criticize and omnibus bill and then create and omnibus demand.

That’s not entirely true. Work requirements are being instituted at some levels and some junk food items are being banned for SNAP purchases.
Again, a start. Positive momentum.
Now instead of everyone just balking at what I have said…. Articulate a coherent plan, that is completely feasible in the political climate, for complete cessation of all foreign aid. And how it passes.
Explain it and get me on board of how it’s possible.
Or just downvote and bitch.
