Congressman Thomas Massie is once again standing as one of the last true fiscal warriors in Washington, boldly opposing yet another reckless Continuing Resolution (CR) that will further drown America in unsustainable debt. And make no mistake—Massie has been right before, even when it was unpopular.
Massie Was Right in 2020—And America Paid the Price for Ignoring Him
Cast your mind back to 2020, when both parties in Congress stampeded toward passing trillions in unchecked spending under the guise of “COVID relief.” Thomas Massie stood nearly alone, demanding accountability, demanding a recorded vote, and warning that this tsunami of printed money would devastate the economy. They mocked him. They ridiculed him. They called him a crank. But what happened next?
- Runaway Inflation: That flood of new dollars injected into the economy didn’t just disappear. It lit the fire of inflation that burned through savings accounts, torched real wages, and sent prices skyrocketing.
- Global Economic Shockwaves: The inflation crisis spread beyond our borders, destabilizing global markets and punishing developing nations that depend on a stable dollar.
- Destruction of the American Dream: Families struggling to buy homes, small businesses collapsing under rising costs, and seniors watching their fixed incomes shrink—all consequences of the reckless spending Massie tried to stop.
Another CR, Another Betrayal of the American People
Now, D.C. is at it again, pushing through another budget-busting CR that keeps funding the very policies that have led to economic disaster. This is not governance; this is dereliction of duty. This is a betrayal of every hardworking American forced to pay the bill for Congress’s addiction to spending.
Why does Massie oppose it? Because he actually believes in fiscal responsibility. Because he knows that:
- The national debt isn’t just a number—it’s an economic time bomb waiting to explode.
- Every new dollar printed steals from your paycheck, your savings, and your future.
- Inflation is not just a tax—it’s a weapon used by the political class to erode the wealth of everyday Americans.
Stand With Massie—Before It’s Too Late
Thomas Massie is fighting for the American People and for the Constitution—not the lobbyists, not the bureaucrats, not the special interests. He is standing in the breach, doing everything in his power to stop Washington from robbing the next generation blind. If America had listened to him in 2020, we wouldn’t be in this mess. The question is—will we listen to him now?
This CR isn’t just a stopgap—it’s an extension of the disastrous Biden budget that has already wrecked the economy, gutted the middle class, and funded the radical left’s agenda. By keeping spending at Biden’s levels, this CR locks in every single one of his reckless priorities: open-border policies, weaponized government agencies, and blank checks to corrupt bureaucracies that have no accountability to the American people. Instead of forcing real spending cuts, this CR ensures that Washington’s addiction to deficit spending continues uninterrupted.
And if you care about DOGE (Deficit Offsets and Government Efficiency Act), this CR completely neuters it. DOGE was designed to ensure that taxpayer dollars actually go toward America’s priorities—not into the bottomless pit of waste, fraud, and foreign giveaways. But this CR ignores the hard-fought spending restraints of DOGE and instead funnels billions back into bloated, unaccountable agencies like USAID, which has spent years throwing American taxpayer dollars at corrupt regimes and failed international projects with zero oversight. This isn’t fiscal responsibility—it’s a betrayal of everything conservatives have fought for.
If you actually support DOGE, you must oppose this CR with everything you have. Because this isn’t a budget fix—it’s a sellout to the same swamp creatures who have been robbing you blind for years. It hands Biden a victory, locks in his disastrous spending levels, and guts the only real effort to rein in wasteful spending. The fight for fiscal sanity is happening right now, and Thomas Massie is leading it. The question is, will America stand with him—or will we keep letting Washington burn our future to the ground?
The time to fight back is now. Call your representatives. Demand they stand with Massie. If they don’t, remember their names come election season. Because America cannot afford to keep getting this wrong.
