This is Thomas Massie's family. He is currently a Congressman of Kentucky's 4th congressional district. Where the median household income is $75, 907. Each Congressional person earns $174,000 /y unless posted otherwise.

He comes from a business background in electrical engineering and holds/held 24 patents. Back in 1996, SensAble Technoolgies, Inc., raised $32 million of venture capital. The business was sold back in 2003.

So while his photo of his family holding guns for their Christmas photo is weird as fuck, this dude is rolling in the money.
