Jim Lyons, right, newly elected chairman of the Massachusetts Republican Party, stands with Tom Mountain, chairman of the Newton City Republican Committee, after Lyons's victory on Thursday, January 17, 2019. The two have been at odds in recent times. Mountain did not support Lyons's re-election as chairman of the party in January 2021, and he supported a so-far-unsuccessful effort to get Lyons to resign recently over his handing of two email messages sent by another state committee member objecting to adoption of children by same-sex couples.

Tom Mountain is no longer the vice chairman of the Massachusetts Republican Party.
Mountain resigned from the post Sunday, July 18 after a pair ofarticles from Turtleboy Sports reporting numerous salacious online posts, including an extensive back-and-forth with someone operating a Facebook account that he thought was a 20-year-old model from Israel.
