Congressman Greg Casar, representing Texas’ 35th district since 2023, has expressed his views on recent political maneuvers and governmental leadership through several posts on social media. His recent tweets provide an insight into his stances on issues such as fiscal policy, immigration, and free speech.
On April 11, 2025, Congressman Casar voiced concerns about the priorities of government leadership in a tweeted critique. He stated, “Only two types of people would think this is a good idea. People who want seniors to miss their checks so billionaires can get bigger tax breaks. People who want to make X richer. Unfortunately, the man running our government wants both. Fire Elon Musk.” This statement suggests Casar’s disapproval of policies he believes favor the wealthy at the expense of social welfare.
The following day, on April 12, Casar tweeted about former President Trump’s actions, criticizing a particular domestic deployment strategy. He alleged that “Trump wants to shift the news off his tariff economic disaster, so he’s deploying the military into our own country and targeting immigrants. Insane, an abuse of our military, and true to form.” Casar’s critique condemns the use of military resources for what he views as politically motivated diversions.
Later that same day, Congressman Casar addressed the issue of free speech and political persecution in another tweet. He emphasized that “Incarcerating and deporting someone based entirely on their political views is a major attack on the free speech rights of all Americans. All lawmakers should denounce this immediately. Right wing officials refusing to speak up shows how little they actually care about the” free speech rights issue, highlighting his stance on civil liberties and government accountability.
Greg Casar, born in Houston in 1989, is a graduate of the University of Virginia and currently resides in Austin. His communications reflect ongoing concerns and policy positions central to his role in Congress.
