It Got Weird, Didn’t It?

Some damnable weirdness in the northern reaches of the Commonwealth:
U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie, whose tight race against a Trump-endorsed candidate has become one of the most closely watched in the country, made his final pitches to voters this weekend, stopping in Shelbyville on Friday afternoon with ally U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, a Colorado Republican.
The primary election is Tuesday.
Boebert, was one of a few House Republicans to join Massie in supporting his discharge petition to release the federal investigation files into the late convicted sex offender and financier Jeffrey Epstein. They both co-chair the Congressional Second Amendment Caucus.
Boebert joined Massie for other stops throughout Friday and Saturday, including an afternoon rally in Florence in Northern Kentucky. Others slated to attend the rally were U.S. Sen. Rand Paul, of Kentucky, and U.S. Reps. Warren Davidson, Dana Rohrabacher and Victoria Spartz.
As for Ed Gallrein:
“He’ll take my call. I’ll be able to have a conversation with him,” Gallrein continued. “I do not lack for courage. Rest assured, I’ll have a relationship with the president so he will let me speak my mind, and I’ll do that for these folks in these 21 counties, and for our party and for our nation.”
Asked where he breaks with Trump, Gallrein said they would talk about that “if and when they come up.”
“But right now on the issues, I want to tell you where I’m at — I’m 100% behind the president, what he’s doing to turn our nation around,” Gallrein said.
He scheduled to appear with Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth on Monday at an event in Hebron hosted by America First Works.
Secretary Pete! Campaigning in a Kentucky House primary is definitely what the Secretary of War should be doing in the middle of a, um, war?
Polling and prediction markets on the KY-4 primary are a little all over the place but I still think it’s going to be rough night for Massie.
