Rep. Keith Self, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 3rd district, has expressed his views on various political issues through a series of tweets. Self, who took office in 2023 succeeding Van Taylor, shared his perspectives on international relations and domestic policies.
On October 22, 2024, Rep. Keith Self addressed the Biden-Harris administration's foreign policy regarding Qatar. He urged that "The Biden-Harris administration should demand that Qatar act like a 'Major Non-NATO Ally' and expel the remaining Hamas leaders being sheltered by the emirate in Doha." The statement highlights his stance on Middle Eastern geopolitics and counterterrorism efforts. "Original quotation"
Later that day, he commented on legislative processes within Congress: "The difference between theory and reality: In theory, an omnibus bill is the last chance for Congress to keep the government running. In reality, the omnibus bill is the Establishment’s last chance to ram through more spending and radical policies." This tweet reflects his critical view of omnibus bills as mechanisms for unchecked governmental spending and policy-making. "Original quotation"
On October 24, 2024, Rep. Self turned his attention to border security issues: "Violent criminals and fentanyl are pouring across the southern border, and migrant children are vanishing into thin air. It doesn’t have to be this way. We are living in a man-made CRISIS designed by Border Czar Kamala Harris." Here he attributes current border challenges to administrative decisions made under Vice President Kamala Harris's oversight as Border Czar."Original quotation"
