On February 10, 2025, Gooden expressed concerns about the economic legacy of President Biden’s administration. He stated that “The Biden legacy will be remembered as America Last.” He highlighted that over the past five years, while the U.S. economy added 5.4 million jobs, “90% went to immigrants,” leaving only “645,000 new jobs for native-born Americans.” Gooden emphasized that “the days of Americans being second-class citizens in their own country are over with” here.
In another tweet dated February 11, 2025, Gooden commented on the issue of funding open border NGOs. He asserted that “If a politician or organization opposes defunding open border NGOs, they are likely profiting from an open border NGO” here.
Later on February 11, 2025, Gooden addressed actions taken by current and former U.S. presidents regarding Venezuelan migrants. He claimed that “Joe Biden secretly flew Venezuelan migrants to the U.S.” In contrast, he praised former President Trump for having “successfully restarted deportation flights back to Venezuela,” suggesting that leadership impacts national sovereignty here.
