SouthernWorldwide.com – Representative Thomas Massie reacted intensely when questioned by a reporter about allegations made by his ex-girlfriend, including claims of an affair with Republican Representative Lauren Boebert.
The confrontation occurred after a woman, who identified herself as Massie’s ex-girlfriend, came forward with accusations. She alleged that Massie offered her money and requested she sign a non-disclosure agreement. This was reportedly in connection with a dispute over wrongful termination.
Furthermore, the ex-girlfriend claimed Massie had bragged to her about a sexual encounter with Representative Lauren Boebert, R-Colo. These alleged boasts were said to have occurred just weeks after Massie’s wife passed away.
When the reporter informed Massie that he wanted to give him a chance to publicly address these allegations, the Kentucky Republican shifted the focus of the exchange.
“So let me ask you, I heard that you like gay porn,” Massie stated. He then produced his phone and began recording the reporter. “Is that true?”
As the reporter attempted to disengage from the heated conversation, Massie persisted with his questioning while continuing to film.
“Are you a real loser?” the congressman asked the journalist.
“Are you with Fox?” he inquired further. “Is that a legitimate news organization? Is this what you do for a living?”
The interaction began when the reporter sought clarification on allegations from Massie’s ex-girlfriend, Cynthia West, a former congressional staffer. West claimed Massie offered her $5,000 to drop a wrongful termination lawsuit against Representative Victoria Spartz, R-Ind., who is an ally of Massie.
“It’s all false,” Massie responded when directly asked about these claims.
Massie was then pressed about the accusations concerning his alleged sexual relationship with Representative Lauren Boebert. West also stated that Massie had told her about a sexual encounter with Boebert shortly after his wife’s death.
“It’s all false,” Massie reiterated when questioned about the allegations involving Boebert.
Representative Boebert, when informed about the claims from Massie’s alleged ex-girlfriend, reacted sharply. “F— you, first of all!” she told the reporter.
“If you’re gonna bring me into this, like, the sexist stuff is like out of control,” Boebert continued. “So there’s your clickbait that you were looking for.”
“When did you all become a tabloid?” Massie questioned the reporter. “Seriously, dude.”
These allegations against Massie surfaced approximately one week before his defeat in the Republican primary on May 19. He was running for re-election to his House seat.
