Massie's defeat in Kentucky's GOP primary is being framed as Trump revenge for fiscal votes, but the real driver was his refusal to back Israel funding — bad news for Republicans who break with the pro-Israel line.

• Glenn Greenwald argues Massie was targeted for opposing arms to Israel and the Iran bombing, not just for voting against Trump's spending bill.
• Marjorie Taylor Greene voted for Trump's big bill but was still pushed out after she objected to the Yemen strikes and Iran war.
• The pattern fits Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, and Alex Jones — all former Trump allies who turned critical of Israel and got cut off.
• The Israel lobby reportedly spent tens of millions to defeat Massie, who also pushed to release the Epstein files.
• Outkick's Clay Travis pushed back, saying Kentucky voters simply preferred Trump, but the timing shows Trump wanted Massie gone before the Iran strikes.

Outlook: Expect more Republican incumbents who question Israel funding to face well-funded primary challenges heading into the next cycle.
