Summary of Cynthia West interview

I put together 6 highlights from the interview the Massie "accuser" gave.

I put "accuser" in quotes because it's ultimately not even clear what she's accusing Massie of.

He is mere a witness in her ethics complaint for retaliatory dismissal after working for 6 weeks for Spartz before getting fired.

The entire situation is a total cluster-hit-piece.

West says she had a relationship with Massie.

That they took a political trip to South Africa.

That he got her a job in DC.

That she got fired after 6 weeks.

That before gettin fired, she broke up with Massie.

She claims Massie offered her $5,000 a undeclared "cow money" to silence her.

That she has been offered $60,000 as a settlement but won't accept because it requires her to sign an NDA (absolutely standard for settlements).

I have been going at it with the usual suspects of TWS sycophants - Shawn Farash,. Will Chamberlain, Misfit Patriot - on X.

It is really discouraging to see people being so dishonest, so intellectually...

The Barnes Brief: Weekend of May 15, 2026
Art of the Day 
  • With its signature clock, red brick walls, and wooden floor interiors, I remember well the chapel I first set to publicly speak as a 10-year old — Phillips Chapel, Highland Park, Chattanooga, Tennessee. Damaged a few years back by a fire, evangelicals founded the church in 1922 as part of the Indpendent Baptist movement I grew up in. MLK met with Reverend Lee Roberson here during the Civil Rights movement. My first moment on stage ended quickly, as I forgot my speech, panicked at the size of the crowd, and my little ten year old feet scampered across the wooden floors in fear of total embarrassment. Fond memories!

The Barnes Brief: Thursday, May 14, 2026

Art of the Day 

  • This abstraction captures something more of the symphonic spirit in the seamless synethsis of function and feel, utility and aesthetic, that is my favorite place in my hometown — the Walnut Street Bridge, whose blue beams and wooden planks cross the Tennessee River, and whose path I took each day to work as a young lawyer for a public interest law clinic defending the victims of abuse be they parents or banks. The feeling of precision integrated into nature, crossing it, overcoming it, and experiencing it at the same time, this local artist best captures the sense of the Birdge as I fondly remember it, expressed in its geometric shape, friendly colors, and textured echo of memory past.

The Daily Briefer Barnes Brief: Tuesday, May 12, 2026
  • Art of the Day 
Jazz. Soulful, spiritual, and celebratory at the same time as the musucial, mastroes of innovation and improvisation take us some place deep, real, and hopeful at the same time. Freedom distilled in a trumpet’s note, a pianist's key, a bassist’s chord, uncovered in the mind, expressesd through the soul, manifested into sound. A most American creation.
