Overview
- In a Christmas Day Truth Social post, President Trump labeled Rep. Thomas Massie a "lowlife" while railing about figures tied to Jeffrey Epstein.
- Massie, the lone Republican co-sponsor of the Epstein Files Transparency Act, replied on X with sarcasm and shared a campaign donation link.
- Massie’s campaign reported raising nearly $3,000 from more than 40 small donors within hours of highlighting Trump’s post.
- The Justice Department has released tens of thousands of additional Epstein-related pages and cautioned that some documents include untrue, sensational claims about Trump.
- DOJ officials said they have identified more than a million additional Epstein documents that could take a few more weeks to process for public release, as Trump backs Ed Gallrein to challenge Massie in Kentucky’s 2026 GOP primary.
