Lance Gooden, a U.S. Congressman representing Texas’ 5th district since 2019, shared several updates and opinions on his social media platform. His recent posts covered topics ranging from political nominations to immigration issues and legislative achievements.
On January 29, 2025, Gooden commented on the skepticism surrounding RFK Jr.'s nomination. He remarked, "The people who thought masks and six feet social distancing worked are against RFK Jr.'s nomination. Are you surprised?"
Later that day, he reported on an immigration enforcement action in New York City. He stated, "Tren de Aragua's 'ringleader' was just arrested by ICE in New York City. He crossed the border in 2023. The Trump Administration arrested him within days, while Biden let him roam free in America for over a year."
In another post from January 29, Gooden highlighted legislative successes with a sense of accomplishment: "• The Laken Riley Act was signed into law • Border crossings down by over 90% • Taxpayer-funded sex changes for children banned This is what a second straight week of winning looks like! "
