quote:

. @RepThomasMassie went on Tucker Carlson yesterday and told his audience that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security set up its official X account in Israel using an Israeli IP address and an app purchased from the Israeli App Store, and that Congress needs to open an investigation into it. There's just one problem. The claim is based on a screenshot that was fabricated. The image went viral in November showing the @DHSgov page listed as based in Tel Aviv, created July 2008, connected via the Israel App Store, and it got 39 million views and hundreds of thousands of likes before anyone looked closely at it. The screenshot didn't have the gray checkmark that X puts on every single verified government account without exception, and the person who originally posted it later appeared to admit they made the whole thing up. X's own head of product @nikitabier came out and called it fake news directly, confirming that @DHSgov was deliberately excluded from the location feature for security reasons and never showed any location data at all. A sitting U.S. congressman is calling for a federal investigation based on a screenshot that the person who made it appears to have admitted was fake, and Tucker just let him say it to millions of people. Get this liar out of Congress!

Massie and Tucker are twofold at this stage.

Obvious divisive tactics to say " MAGA IS DEAD" and falsely claim only they can make America first...

And bonus pay if Tucker/Massie survive a 2028 primary and or splinter votes.

There are some Massie supporters that could care less about anything but their TDS, screaming "but, but they saw it with their own eyes,"

Waaaaaaaaambulance needs called...

So only Israel is are allowed to fund politicians and media influences without being suspected of co-opting the country?

Any foreign lobby or effort to influence the populace or politicians by foreign powers should be banned, but it won't. Israeli money and interests have 100% corrupted the political and media sphere in the US.

a wealthy private citizen buying a house in a ME country = horrific

that same country gifting the white house a jet = cool

another ME country having one of the largest lobbies, on both sides of the aisle and its dual citizens donating hundreds of millions to its causes = cool

it's not hard. keep up

Massie loves his Jewish Billionaires.

Thomas Massie and his MASSHOLES claim he doesn't take campaign donations from Jews?

Jeff Yass dropped $7.5M into Protect Freedom PAC ? $1M++ to pro-Massie Kentucky First PAC for ads.

Yass & wife fund:
• $31M+ to Shalom Hartman Institute
• Major donor to Kohelet Policy Forum (Israeli right-wing think tank)
• Birthright Israel, FIDF, Central Fund of Israel, etc.

Massie's biggest "single" donor is an Israel-supporting Jewish billionaire. Facts over narrative.

Jerusalem Online University (and related Imagination Productions): Linked to roughly $7.9 million from Claws (where Yass served as a director) plus ~$3.48 million from the related Kids Connect Charitable Fund (2014–2019). The institution promotes pro-Israel educational content on the Middle East.

Kohelet Policy Forum: Yass and Dantchik have been reported as major (often primary) American funders of this conservative Israeli think tank, which advocates free-market policies, nationalism, and has influenced right-wing Israeli legislation (e.g., judicial reforms and the Nation-State Law). Exact amounts are not always public, but Haaretz investigations highlight their significant role.

Other Jewish/Israel-related giving (via Claws, Susquehanna Foundation, or direct):Birthright Israel (free trips for young Jews to Israel).
American Friends of Hebrew University.
Hadassah Women’s Zionist Organization of America.
Friends of the Israel Defense Forces (FIDF): $10,000 grant in 2011.

Central Fund of Israel: $100,000 in 2014 (described in some reports as supporting West Bank settlement activity).

Local U.S. efforts: Synagogue near their Philadelphia-area home, Jewish federation in Florida, and various Zionist organizations.

So much for no Jewish donor influence for Massie...

Remind me next time Qatari leader gets an ovation in Congress multiple times or has US go to war for them. Or when US senators or DOJ officials say their most important purpose in Congress to protect Qatar.

Look at his voting record.

Its sad to see so-called America First people cheering against one of the few anti-war, fiscally responsible congressmen.

More ignorance. It was actually a deal done under Biden but transfer didn’t take place with our country until Trump took office.

Apparently Thomas has as little regard for his audience as the MSM have for theirs.
