Three out-of-state neocon billionaires are funding the PAC created to oust Kentucky’s Republican Congressman, Thomas Massie. The legislator claims they’re coming after him because of his opposition to foreign aid for Israel.
The backers behind MAGA KY are John Paulson, Paul Singer, and the Preserve America PAC, whose primary financier is Miriam Adelson, according to the Federal Election Commission (FEC).
Massie brought attention to the PAC’s financial backing on Friday in an X social media post.
Massie’s 12-year run in Congress will end next year if President Donald Trump has his way. The independent Republican congressman has bucked the president’s wishes one too many times. Just days into the new year, Massie cast the sole Republican vote against Mike Johnson (R-La.) in the Speakership vote. The Kentuckian also stood alone in March as the only Republican to vote against the continuing resolution budget measure. And then a couple of months later, he voted against the One Big Beautiful Bill Act — twice (he had some company when he cast those votes). Massie was also among the few Republicans to correctly label Trump’s unilateral decision to bomb Iranian nuclear sites as unconstitutional.
Right after the Kentuckian rained on Trump’s bombing parade, news broke that MAGA KY had emerged on the scene. In late June, the PAC released a takedown ad laden with lies about Massie.
