Episode description

Thomas Massie just lost the most expensive House primary in American history — $32.6 million to take out one congressman. Jeff and Ness break down the Massie-Gallrein race: who bankrolled it, why Massie made himself a target for Trump, and what the demographics of Kentucky's 4th District tell you about the populist story being sold around this race. Plus: Tucker Carlson weighs in, and his reaction says as much about his faction as it does about the result.
