Business tycoon Elon Musk indicated that he will donate to Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky.
Massie, a fiscal hawk who was one of the two House Republicans who voted against the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that cleared the House of Representatives in May, also labeled President Donald Trump’s strikes against Iran last month as “not Constitutional.”
“Every member of Congress who campaigned on reducing government spending and then immediately voted for the biggest debt increase in history should hang their head in shame! And they will lose their primary next year if it is the last thing I do on this Earth,” Musk declared in a post on X.
Former Rep. Justin Amash replied by urging Musk to back Massie.
“Please support @RepThomasMassie. The establishment is working to primary him because he’s a genuine fiscal conservative and opposes the Big, Bloated Scam,” Amash wrote.
“I will,” Musk replied.

Musk also responded to an individual who wrote, “I donated again to @RepThomasMassie’s re-election campaign. Who’s next?”
“Me,” Musk answered.

Trump also targeted Massie in Truth Social posts on June 23 and 24.
