Lance Gooden, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 5th district, has been vocal on social media regarding several issues he attributes to current Democratic policies and the Biden Administration. Through a series of tweets, Gooden has expressed his viewpoints on topics ranging from immigration policy to national security concerns.

On December 12, 2024, Lance Gooden commented on what he perceives as inconsistency in the approach towards immigration enforcement. He stated: "When elites in Martha's Vineyard wanted to remove illegal aliens from their community, it was okay. When Trump's Border Czar Tom Homan wants to deport illegal aliens, it's not okay. This is the logic of today's Democrats."

In another tweet dated December 13, 2024, Gooden criticized President Joe Biden for allegedly using taxpayer funds for personal security measures while selling border wall materials at reduced prices. He remarked: "Joe Biden built a wall around his Delaware beach house with taxpayer dollars. Meanwhile, he is selling unused border wall from the southern border at a hefty discount. Outrageous."

Later that same day, Gooden expressed skepticism about the transparency of the Biden Administration concerning various incidents and allegations. He tweeted: "They tried to cover up the Chinese spy balloon. They tried to cover up Hunter Biden's laptop. They tried to cover up Joe Biden's classified documents. Americans are rightfully skeptical of the Biden Administration's response to mysterious New Jersey drones."
