Rep. Pat Fallon, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 4th district since 2021, has voiced concerns over several national security issues through a series of tweets. His statements address topics ranging from national debt to technological advancements by adversaries and border policies under the Biden-Harris administration.

On November 18, 2024, Rep. Fallon expressed his concern about the national debt and its implications for U.S. security. He stated, "Along with the border crisis, our burgeoning debt presents one of the greatest threats to US national security." He criticized what he perceives as excessive spending by political opponents and urged for fiscal restraint.

Later that day, Rep. Fallon highlighted challenges related to technological advancements by foreign adversaries in another tweet dated November 18, 2024. He emphasized the need for modernization within defense approval processes to maintain U.S. competitiveness: "US adversaries are rapidly growing their technological capabilities."

In a subsequent tweet on November 18, 2024, Rep. Fallon criticized current border policies under President Biden and Vice President Harris following an incident involving a violent gang member's entry into the United States: "This violent gang member should never have been allowed to enter and move freely throughout the US." He attributed this situation to existing border policies that he believes compromise citizen safety.
