Trump and AIPAC wage desperate political war on Thomas Massie—inaccurately depicting him as a supporter of genital mutilation
06/30/2025 / By Lance D Johnson
In a brazen display of political retaliation, President Donald Trump and the powerful pro-Israel lobbying group AIPAC have launched a coordinated smear campaign against Congressman Thomas Massie (R-KY)—one of the few Republicans who dares to challenge runaway spending, unconstitutional foreign aid, and the corrosive influence of lobbyists hijacking American policy. This unprecedented attack exposes the unholy alliance between Trump’s political machine and the Israel lobby, revealing a disturbing shift in priorities: silencing principled dissent at any cost.
Trump’s newly formed Kentucky MAGA PAC, led by his longtime campaign strategists, is spending over $1 million in attack ads falsely branding Massie as a terrorist sympathizer and defender of child genital mutilation—all because he refused to rubber-stamp bills that prioritize Israel’s interests over U.S. sovereignty and fiscal sanity. Meanwhile, AIPAC is actively recruiting a challenger to unseat Massie, proving that Trump expects loyalty to he and the foreign lobbies that prop him up, even if that means abandoning constructive debate and betraying principles – like fiscal responsibility – that would actually make America great again.
Key points:
- Trump’s PAC and AIPAC have aligned to crush Rep. Thomas Massie, the rare Republican voting against unchecked foreign aid and unconstitutional military strikes.
- Smear ads falsely accuse Massie of supporting radical gender procedures for minors—a deliberate lie targeting conservative voters.
- Massie exposed Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” (BBB) as quietly stripping protections against child sex changes, undermining the ads’ claims.
- AIPAC conducted similar smear campaigns in 2024, spending hundreds of thousands against Massie despite no primary challenger.
- Trump’s PAC mirrors tactics of the Republican Jewish Coalition, funneling donor cash into Israel-first propaganda instead of America-first policies.
The smear machine in motion
The attack ad, funded by Trump’s Kentucky MAGA PAC, opens with a manipulative question: “What happened to Thomas Massie?”—painting him as a traitor for opposing Trump-backed bills on tax cuts, border security, and military strikes on Iran. The ad grotesquely juxtaposes Massie’s face with images of Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenei, Bernie Sanders, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, branding him an enemy of Trump’s agenda. Yet the ad omits a critical fact: Massie’s votes align with constitutional limits on executive war powers and fiscal restraint, principles once championed by the GOP.
Chris LaCivita, Trump’s senior advisor, recycled a proven smear tactic—accusing opponents of supporting gender surgeries—to vilify Massie, despite zero evidence. Massie dismantled the deception, revealing the Senate’s BBB revisions now permit funding for minor sex changes, rendering the PAC’s attack blatantly hypocritical.
AIPAC’s grip on the GOP
AIPAC’s vendetta against Massie predates Trump’s involvement. In 2024, the group flooded his district with $300,000 in attack ads—despite no primary opponent—to tarnish his reputation as a critic of U.S. aid to Israel. The Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) openly praised Trump for joining their crusade, with spokesperson Sam Markstein declaring, “The RJC is proud to join with President Trump to defeat Massie.” The alliance confirms Trump’s transformation from an outsider rejecting lobbyist money (“You’re not going to support me because I don’t want your money”) to a puppet doing AIPAC’s dirty work.
This isn’t just about Massie—it’s about eroding resistance to the Israel-first agenda. Last week, the ADL-funded Network Contagion Research Institute labeled critics of Israel as “spam-bot networks” seeking to fracture MAGA before war with Iran. AIPAC’s goal in this is clearly, censorship. The same forces smearing Massie want to equate patriotism with blind support for foreign wars and inflationary spending—bankrupting America while shielding Israel from scrutiny.
Massie’s defiance is a litmus test: Will the GOP uphold constitutional principles, or will it bow to donors demanding allegiance to a foreign nation? Trump’s answer is clear—and it reeks of insecurity and desperation.
