This week, on The Independents with Carla Gericke, Thomas Massie — one of the last consistent anti-war, pro-liberty voices in Congress — was just obliterated in his primary by Trump, massive pro-Israel donor money, and the new hawkish GOP machine. On paper, it looks like a total defeat. But in reality, this “massacre” is one of the most clarifying and valuable things that could have happened to the Free State Project and anyone serious about real freedom.
In this episode, I break down: What actually happened in the most expensive House primary in history, how it exposes the death of “America First” restraint, and the total capture of the Republican Party. Why hoping the GOP will ever deliver liberty is now officially over. The silver lining: This forces serious people to stop coping and start building. The mask is completely off. The system just showed us — in high resolution — that it will purge independence, reward loyalty to donors and wars, and crush dissent.
