A Republican lawmaker’s announcement that he would be on TV this weekend resulted in a public fight with a MAGA lawyer with close ties to the Trump administration.
Rep. Thomas Massie announced Sunday, “I’ll be appearing with Martha Raddatz on ABC at 9:23 AM ET. We will discuss AG Bondi’s Judiciary testimony and the latest release of Jeffrey Epstein documents. Tune in!”
Enter former GOP staffer Mike Davis, who has made headlines for his social media comments in the past, and was rumored to be on Trump’s list for attorney general. He chimed in, “Yep, sure you will, Massie.”
“You are now the useful liberal media darling. Of course, you didn’t have much to say about Epstein during 4 years of Biden,” he then added. “But now you can team up with the Democrats on the Epstein hoax. (Did you ever apologize to the 4 men you smeared?)”
Massie responded with a fact check:
“DOJ released the names not me. The names should have been released with context of a line-up, but DOJ screwed up by omitting the context I gave them.” He then wrote, “Here’s the tweet,” and included a screenshot of the claim.
In a separate comment, Massie added, “History will not be kind to your side of this debate.”
