Rep. Pat Fallon, a U.S. Congressman representing Texas’ 4th district, made several statements on March 13, 2026, via his social media account addressing national security, foreign policy, and energy issues.
In a post published at 14:55 UTC, Fallon criticized Democratic lawmakers and the media for their stance on military and national security funding. He stated: “Democrats and their pals in the media have made clear that they’re willing to undermine our military & national security all because they can’t stand President Trump. Meanwhile, Dems still won’t fund DHS even though we have seen a string of 4 terror-inspired attacks on US soil.”
Later that day at 16:21 UTC, Fallon commented on international oil dynamics involving Venezuela, Iran, and China. He wrote: “Between Venezuela and Iran, China’s oil supply is taking a significant hit. This is good for our ability to continue to deter Beijing’s designs on Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific.”
At 17:15 UTC the same day, Fallon addressed criticism from foreign policy analysts regarding Iran. He posted: “Many foreign policy has-beens are regurgitating the Iranian regime’s propaganda at face value. The success so far of OEF has shattered their ‘appeasement above all’ mindset, and they can’t stand that President Trump is being proven correct.”
Fallon has served in Congress since replacing John Ratcliffe in 2021 and represents Texas’s 4th District. Prior to his tenure in Congress, he served in both the Texas House of Representatives (2013-2019) and Texas Senate (2019-2021). Born in Pittsfield, Massachusetts in 1967, Fallon currently resides in Frisco.
He was re-elected multiple times with substantial margins: defeating Simon Cardell in 2024 with over two-thirds of the vote; Iro Omere in 2022; and Russell Foster in 2020.
