Texas Congressman Greg Casar expressed his concerns and critiques related to various political activities and decisions through a series of tweets he posted on March 26 and 27, 2025. Casar, who has been serving in the U.S. Congress since 2023, took to social media to question the actions of some political figures and policies, notably addressing the activities of the Republican-controlled House and the former Trump Administration.
In a tweet dated March 26, 2025, Casar commented on the actions of House Republicans who “held a hearing to investigate and defund NPR and PBS.” He suggested that, instead, there should be an investigation into former President Trump’s alleged attempts to direct $400 million to Elon Musk's companies, highlighting the discrepancy by stating that the former President was “lying about it.” The tweet is available here.
Later on the same day, Casar criticized Donald Trump for making time for non-essential activities, posting that Trump organized a car show for Elon Musk on the White House lawn while neglecting more serious responsibilities, such as being briefed on the circumstances surrounding the death of four American soldiers. Casar described this action as “outrageous.” The tweet can be viewed here.
On March 27, 2025, Casar expressed serious concern over the Trump Administration's actions regarding political dissent. He referred to the administration's detention of individuals based on their political views as alarming and counter to American democratic values. Casar emphasized the importance of free expression in the United States, stating that people in America “must be free to express their views — popular or unpopular — without being punished by the government.” This perspective was shared here.
