Lance Gooden, U.S. Representative for Texas from District 5 | Official U.S. House Headshot
Lance Gooden, a United States Congressman representing Texas’ 5th District, has shared a series of tweets commenting on recent political issues. These messages reflect his stance on domestic policies and the actions of the Democratic Party.
On March 30, 2025, Gooden expressed his views on law enforcement actions regarding political demonstrations, stating, "Democrats jailed small business owners for not following their lockdown orders but are outraged by pro-Hamas students being arrested. Why do Democrats fight harder for foreigners than for Americans?"
Further, on March 31, 2025, Gooden commented on a protest related to former President Trump, stating that "Liberals are ripping up their diplomas to protest President Trump. These are the same people who expect a student loan bailout from the 87% of Americans who don't have loans." Gooden's tweet draws a connection between the protest actions and the broader debate on student loan forgiveness.
Later on March 31, 2025, Gooden briefly addressed allegations regarding President Trump's foreign relations, writing "But according to the Democrats, President Trump is a Russian asset."
Gooden has served in the U.S. Congress since 2019 and previously held a position in the Texas House of Representatives.
