Massie unveils Flock-Off Act aimed at restricting surveillance cameras
btw - Flock CEO got his house blurred out on Google Maps and Zillow.
Remember this. this is how they feel about their privacy and yours.
I'm not defending that guy, but anyone can get their house blurred on Google maps.
But it's in public, he has no right to privacy. We have the right to put up a camera and film him as he enters and leaves
Duh. Ofc. But not many people do as they don't know they can do it. Interestingly this prick opted in to do it
Massie is the one rare Republican that I have some respect for.
I think hes doing it now mostly because Trump funded his oponent and kickded him out of congress. hes gone from there January 3, 2027. trump never forgave him voting against big beautiful bill
he would probably much more likely to support no minimum wage and no universal healthcare overall.
he might run in 2028
Nah this is pretty consistent with his stances throughout his career. He's more of a libertarian than a republican. And a real one, not the cosplay kind where they're only pretending to oppose welfare programs.
Massie was all on board publishing Epstein files. And wasn’t he against Jan 6 ers also?
Prez turned against him because Massie refused to fall in line on Epstein. This is not a chicken or egg situation.
Massie stood up for what he thought was right, and got kicked out of his party for it. Credit where it's due.
Well, he and Khanna stood up for the Epstein victims against the will of the orange pedo before said pedo backed his opponent. That's mostly why I respect him a little. But only a little: fundamentally he's still a piece of shit Republican.
As for what he does now, yeah clearly he has nothing to lose and he does it to annoy the pedo.
