Rep. Keith Self, a U.S. Congressman representing Texas' 3rd district since 2023, recently shared his views on social media platform X and political matters through a series of tweets. Self, who succeeded Van Taylor in Congress, commented on the state of news media and current political issues.
On March 10, 2025, Rep. Keith Self expressed his relief over the restoration of service on the social media platform X after an outage. He reflected on how news was consumed before such platforms existed: "X being down for the last few hours reminded me of what life was like when the mainstream media was the public’s only window to the news—slow with a lot of spin! Glad X is back up and running @elonmusk!"
In another tweet posted shortly after, Rep. Self commented on public opinion regarding former President Trump's agenda. He highlighted a recent poll's findings: "The crybabies on CNN aren’t going to like this... The American people are THRILLED with President Trump’s agenda. According to a recent CBS poll, President Trump’s HISTORIC Joint Address to Congress received YUGE approval ratings."
Additionally, Rep. Self addressed immigration policy in a subsequent post. He discussed incentives for self-deportation provided by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS): "Why would an illegal immigrant want to self-deport? DHS says if they leave now, they will have the opportunity to return to the U.S. legally in the future and chase the American dream."
