Rep. Thomas Massie enters primary as a Trump target and the U.S. hantavirus ‘hot spots': Morning Rundown
Plus, dramatic video shows crew forced to eject during a mid-air collision at an Idaho Air Force base show.
www.nbcnews.comHere’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting:
- Massie-related coverage has centered on his ongoing primary dynamics and his stance against the Trump-backed position in various votes, with multiple outlets noting his status as a frequent target of Trump’s criticisms in 2025–2026.[2][3][4]
- In May 2026, there were reports that Massie responded to Trump’s push by reaffirming his campaign position and asserting his perceived lead in the race, while Trump intensified public attacks.[3][4]
- Massie’s office and supporters have highlighted his Epstein-related legislative work and transparency acts as ongoing themes in his public messaging, as reflected in official communications and press coverage.[5]
If you’d like, I can narrow this to:
- What Massie’s latest primary polling and fundraising look like
- A timeline of his recent public statements and responses to Trump
- A quick summary of his Epstein-related legislation and its status
Would you prefer a focused update on polling, fundraising, or policy? I can also pull the most recent local coverage from Dallas-area sources if that helps.
