What are the charges against Cynthia West?
Cynthia West, a social worker and candidate for the Okaloosa County, Florida, school board, claimed she began seeing Massie just months after his first wife of 30 years died in 2024.
She claims Massey then found a job in the office of close ally Rep. Victoria Spartz, R-Ind.
West said she never applied for the position and was fired shortly after ending her romantic relationship with Massey.
West said in the interview that Massey initially contacted her on social media in August 2024. West described their connection as “very close, very romantic” over the next few months, which included trips to South Africa and Savannah, Georgia.
West claims she ended their relationship after Massi encouraged her to “engage in behavior that made her uncomfortable” and accused her of emotional abuse. West said she was fired from the Spartan office after just “six weeks” on the job.
West first made the accusations Tuesday in a video interview with Kentucky attorney Marcus Carey, who opposed Massie during his original campaign for Congress in 2012.

Laura Loomer posted “Receipts”
Loomer claimed in her X post that West said in a sworn videotaped deposition that she and Massey traveled to South Africa together in late 2024 under the guise of a “political” trip.
Loomer also shared a screenshot of the Instagram account of Kerry Welsh, whom Loomer identified as a retired entrepreneur and former Reason Foundation board member. In the photo, Massi is seen in South Africa in November 2025, shortly after he traveled with Cyntia West, as her testimony stated.
A screenshot of an Instagram photo caption from November 2025 reads, “Thomas Massey, enjoy your well-deserved honeymoon and say hello to all our friends in Joburg and Cape Town!”
Another photo, taken on October 28, 2025, shows Massi posing with Wales at Red Rock Canyon near Las Vegas, with a caption calling him “my Sassy houseguest.”
Loomer argued that the posts supported West’s timeline and claimed Massey later returned to South Africa for a honeymoon with another woman. “Through my research, I found evidence that Massie gave multiple interviews in South Africa in late November 2024, consistent with West’s timeline,” Loomer wrote.
Loomer added: “It appears that not only did Cynthia West tell the truth about the trip to South Africa, but Massey also found the trip so romantic that he returned to South Africa a year later for his honeymoon with another woman.”
Welsh also attended the wedding, according to Loomer.
She also claims that after returning from the trip, West began working for Victoria Spaatz, leaving the position after a few months.
“Is this a comforting gift from Cynthia West to keep Cynthia quiet? It certainly seems like that,” Loomer wrote in the post.
Randy Fine says Cynthia West approached him
In another X post on May 16, Loomer shared an alleged statement from Rep. Randy Fine claiming that West approached him during the Florida Freedom Forum on August 2, 2025.
According to Loomer’s post, Fine said West described Massie as a “sexual deviant” and claimed she was concerned about his alleged “relationship with Iran.”
Fine told Loomer, “Cynthia West came to me and told me that Massie was a complete sexual pervert, a weirdo, and that he had gotten her into trouble. She told me that he asked her to do things in their relationship that she didn’t think were appropriate. She said Massie also had direct ties to Iran.”
Loomer also shared a photo purportedly of West and Massey when they were dating in 2024. HT.com cannot independently verify this information.
Loomer calls out Massey’s hypocrisy
Loomer specifically accused Massie of hypocrisy, claiming the congressman criticized Trump’s sexual misconduct allegations while allegedly hiding “sex skeletons in his own closet.”
She wrote: “President Trump was right. Massey quickly stopped paying attention to women. It appears that the man who has been falsely accusing President Trump of sexual misconduct with Jeffrey Epstein has some sexual skeletons in his own closet.”
Massey has repeatedly clashed with Trump over foreign policy, government spending and Israel-related legislation, as well as the Epstein issue. Trump has also publicly criticized Massie on many occasions.
On May 16, Trump shared Loomer’s “receipt” in a Truth Social post, amplifying West’s accusations and the controversy Massey was involved in.
