Career

[edit]

Basye served in the Marines.[3]

Following his terms in the Missouri House, Basye entered the 2024 Missouri State Senate election for District 19 on encouragement from Cindy O'Laughlin. He has slandered opponent Stephen Webber and Webber's supporters on social media with statements including vulgarities, sexual harassment, and homophobia. Bayse justified his comments, saying that he has also received hurtful comments on the internet. He also made comments that appeared to question Webber's military service record, later telling press that he doesn't suspect Webber's record, stating "Stephen went through absolute hell in Fallujah."[3]
