Massie Loses, AIPAC Wins, and Trump's $1.8B Anti-Weaponization Fund | 05-20-26

Sam Bushman and James Edwards of thepoliticalcesspool.org break down the biggest stories of the week. Thomas Massie loses his primary by 10 points after $20 million in outside money floods his race, but the youth vote tells a different story: 81% of 18 to 29-year-olds voted for Massie. They dig into who really controls Republican primaries, what the 2028 race might look like, and the uncomfortable question of foreign influence in American elections. Then they turn to Trump's new $1.8 billion Anti-Weaponization Fund, which will actually see that money, and whether guys like Sam and James qualify. Plus, Memphis crime stats and the UN quietly backing away from its most extreme climate claims.
