Lance Gooden, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Texas’ 5th district, recently shared his views on significant political and economic events via social media. His comments touch on topics ranging from national security to economic policies under different administrations.
On December 12, 2024, Gooden commented on former President Donald Trump’s participation in a New York Stock Exchange event. He stated, “President Trump’s historic NYSE bell-ringing marks the departure from Joe Biden’s failed far-left economic policies. This is the dawn of a new American economic boom.”
Later that day, Gooden congratulated Trump for being recognized by TIME magazine. He tweeted at 15:34 UTC: “Congratulations to @realDonaldTrump on being named TIME’s person of the year for a SECOND time. I look forward to working together in Washington to make America great once again in 2025!”
Gooden also expressed concerns about national security issues under the current administration. At 18:44 UTC on December 12, he posted about recent aerial surveillance activities: “First, a Chinese spy balloon freely floated across our country. Now, unknown drones are swarming American skies. The Biden Administration has never taken our national security seriously.”
