U.S. Representative Pat Fallon, currently serving Texas’s 4th district in Congress, posted a series of tweets on March 9, 2026, addressing foreign policy and domestic security issues.

In his first post at 14:45 UTC, Fallon commented on recent U.S. military action and the Iranian regime: “Operation Epic Fury has been a long time coming, and rightfully so. Iran’s regime has spent the past 47yrs killing Americans, sowing chaos in the region, and supplying US adversaries like China & Russia with oil & weapons. The end of the regime is critical to long-term peace.”

Later that day at 16:50 UTC, he criticized Democratic lawmakers for a prolonged shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), writing: “Fed up with long lines at airport security? That’s because Democrats have now shutdown DHS for 24 days. TSA employees are going without paychecks for the 3rd time in 6 months. Radical Democrats are playing politics AGAIN while Americans suffer.”

At 17:43 UTC, Fallon made a brief comment referencing an unidentified individual: “Lenin would have loved this guy.”

Pat Fallon was elected to represent Texas’s 4th district in Congress after defeating Simon Cardell in the 2024 general election by a margin of nearly 37 percentage points. He previously won elections against Iro Omere in 2022 and Russell Foster in 2020 with significant leads as well. Before joining Congress in January 2021 to replace John Ratcliffe, Fallon served both in the Texas House of Representatives from 2013 to 2019 and the Texas Senate from 2019 to 2021.

Born in Pittsfield, Massachusetts in 1967 and now residing in Frisco at age 55, Pat Fallon continues to use social media platforms to communicate his positions on national security and legislative developments.
