Rep. Thomas Massie confronts reporter over ex‑girlfriend allegations

U.S. Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky reacted sharply when a Fox News Digital reporter asked him about accusations from a woman claiming to be his ex‑girlfriend. The woman alleged Massie offered her $5,000 and asked her to sign a nondisclosure agreement linked to a wrongful‑termination dispute. Massie dismissed the claims as false, redirected the interview to questions about the reporter’s alleged interest in “gay porn,” and challenged the reporter to stay for further questioning.

The exchange occurred weeks before Massie faced a defeat in the May 19 Republican primary for his House seat, adding political context to the controversy.
