Rep. Keith Self, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 3rd district, shared a series of tweets on October 16, 2024, expressing his views on various political issues. Rep. Self replaced Van Taylor in Congress in 2023 and has been vocal about his stance on fiscal responsibility and international affairs.
In a tweet posted at 13:24 UTC, Rep. Self voiced his opposition to what he describes as the "Biden-Harris radical spending spree." He urged Americans to "stand firm" against a potential "Christmas Omnibus," suggesting that such spending would unfairly burden future generations. "The American people shouldn’t let their children and grandchildren bear the burden of the Biden-Harris radical spending spree."
Later that day, at 20:33 UTC, Rep. Self criticized the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), asserting that they have facilitated Hezbollah's advancement in Lebanon, thereby endangering Israel. He quoted an article titled “U.N. Peacekeepers Are Hezbollah’s Best Friend” and expressed skepticism about UNIFIL's role in maintaining peace. “Peace” and @UNIFIL_ do not even belong in the same sentence.
At 21:29 UTC, Rep. Self commented on crime rates under Democratic leadership, implying an increase under what he terms "radical Democrats." The tweet was succinct and did not provide additional context or data but suggested this was a known issue."Crime is UP under radical Democrats."
