Just saw that Thomas Massie pulled in $584.3K in Q2 fundraising—pretty solid haul, ranked 8th among politicians this cycle. What's interesting is like 97% came from individual donors, so real grassroots support.

The guy's net worth sits around $3.1M according to recent estimates, which puts him 189th in Congress. Not exactly a gold miner level of wealth compared to some of those other politicians, but he's got about $27.1K in publicly traded assets they're tracking.

Found it wild that he sold up to $50K of Tesla back in 2020—that stock's up like 213% since then. Probably kicking himself over that one lol.

Also noticed he's been pushing some interesting bills lately—Gold Reserve Transparency Act, Federal Reserve Board Abolition Act, and a few others on voter security and spending oversight. Seems like he's got some pretty specific policy angles he cares about.

Anyone else follow what these politicians are actually doing with their money and proposals? It's kind of a rabbit hole once you start digging.
