Rep. Pat Fallon, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas’ 4th district, has expressed concerns over national security and foreign policy through a series of tweets. His remarks highlight perceived threats from Communist China and critique the current administration's handling of these issues.
On November 25, 2024, Rep. Fallon emphasized the importance of equipping the U.S. military to deter threats from Communist China in the Indo-Pacific region. He stated that "With US national security at stake, this requires a focus on increasing our hypersonic missile capabilities and finding innovative solutions in the cyber domain." "Original quotation"
In a subsequent tweet on November 26, 2024, Rep. Fallon criticized what he described as four years of failed leadership under President Biden and Vice President Harris, claiming it has endangered U.S. national security. He outlined his support for former President Trump’s policies to address these concerns: "Under President Trump, we will: - Secure our border - Rein in out of control government spending - Reimpose peace through strength to deter our adversaries - Restore energy independence."

Later that day, Rep. Fallon reiterated his stance against the Biden-Harris administration's approach to deterring China's influence in the Indo-Pacific region. He asserted that their failure has emboldened adversaries and increased risks for the United States: "The Biden-Harris Admin's failure to deter the CCP jeopardizes security in the Indo-Pacific & puts the US at greater risk... We WILL restore peace through strength under President Trump's leadership." "Original quotation"
