Massie and his family posed with guns in front of a Christmas tree. Massie wrote " Merry Christmas!" and "ps" on the photo. Santa, please bring some food.

He posted the photo days after a shooting at Oxford High School north of Detroit left four students dead and several others injured, renewing concerns over gun violence and school safety.
On Saturday, Oliver appeared on CNN to talk about his desire to meet with Biden about his gun control promises. His son was one of the 17 people killed when a former student opened fire at a high school.
Oliver was interviewed by CNN host Jim Acosta, who asked him about Massie's social media activity.
Oliver said that was a huge part of the problem. I don't know if they're trying to be funny or ironic, but it's the worst taste ever.
He said that it was a very nasty post and that it should teach us who should be elected and not.

Oliver and his wife started the Change The Ref, a nonprofit organization to help students ignite change.
Massie's office did not reply immediately.
