Kentucky Republican Rep. Thomas Massie pushed back on criticism from President Trump and GOP leadership ahead of a costly and closely watched primary against former Navy SEAL Ed Gallrein, telling CBS News’ Ed O'Keefe the race has become a referendum on party loyalty, foreign policy and outside political spending. Massie is one of the few Republicans in Congress who has opposed the war with Iran and has voted with Democrats to rein in Trump's authority to carry out further military action without congressional authorization. He has also voted against symbolic resolutions backing Israel, as well as a resolution condemning antisemitism that he argued promoted censorship.
