President Donald Trump lashed out at Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) in a Friday night rant as the congressman leads a revolt in the House over the release of files related to deceased sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein.
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) has refused to swear in Rep. Adelita Grijalva (D-AZ), who would likely be the key 218th yes vote on a discharge petition to force a vote on releasing the Epstein Files.
Massie is the leader of a group of Republicans who have joined Democrats in that push, and has drawn Trumps ire.
That might explain why Trump posted a lengthy rant trashing Massie and urging a challenger to unseat him.
