“House Republican moderates aren’t mourning after Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie — a frequent thorn in President Donald Trump’s side — lost his primary, and they say his defeat won’t make them any less likely to break with the White House,” NOTUS reports.

“Republican centrists insist the intraparty revenge campaign against Massie won’t stop them from speaking out, and potentially voting against, the president’s agenda — even ahead of midterm elections.”
