Haley Campaign Press Release - DeSantis' Biggest Supporter is the Most Anti-Israel Republican in Congress

Ron DeSantis brags about campaigning with the most anti-Israel Republican in Congress, Rep. Thomas Massie. And when asked about Massie's notorious record, DeSantis defended Massie, falsely claiming that Massie is simply against foreign aid.

He should take a closer look at the record. Massie routinely votes against recognizing Israel's right to exist, condemning antisemitism, cracking down on Iranian terrorism, criticizing the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement, and sanctioning terrorist organizations. DeSantis-ally Thomas Massie votes with the Squad on Israel and terrorism more often than he votes with Republicans. None of that is connected to foreign aid.

When Massie posted an antisemitic meme, he was denounced by Republican Jewish Coalition president Matt Brooks: "Shame on you @RepThomasMassie. You're a disgrace to the US Congress and to the Republican Party."
