U.S. Rep. Keith Self Proudly Serving Texa's 3rd District | Twitter Website
Rep. Keith Self, who represents Texas' 3rd district in the U.S. Congress, shared several reflections and comments through his social media account over the past few days. Known for his military background and current political role, Rep. Self often engages with topics of national security and historical remembrance.
On January 26, Rep. Keith Self reflected on his experiences during his 25-year Army career, sharing insights into military transportation methods. He commented on a situation involving Colombian President Gustavo Petro's objection to the deportation of illegal immigrants using military jets instead of passenger planes. "During my 25 years in the Army, I rode in many of these. It was not that bad, but Colombian President Gustavo Petro objected when illegal immigrants were deported on military jets instead of passenger planes."
The following day, January 27, Rep. Self marked a significant historical event—the liberation of Auschwitz concentration camp 80 years ago. In remembrance of this somber moment in history, he paid tribute to the victims of the Holocaust and reiterated the importance of memory and prevention against future atrocities: "80 years ago today, the Auschwitz concentration camp was liberated just months before Nazi Germany surrendered."
Later on January 27, Rep. Self turned attention to recent immigration enforcement actions within Texas' Collin County area by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). He linked these actions to former President Trump's policies on immigration: "Over the weekend, ICE conducted the arrests of 84 individuals in the DFW area."
