Rep. Pat Fallon, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 4th district, has been vocal on social media about his views on international and domestic issues. His recent tweets address concerns over foreign policy and border security under different administrations.

On March 10, 2025, Rep. Fallon expressed his stance on the geopolitical situation involving Russia and Syria. He stated, "If we want lasting peace in Ukraine, we can't allow Russia to capitalize on the chaos in Syria and maintain control of its airbases." He further noted that Russia's presence in Syria supports Iran's proxies, which he claims destabilize the region and threaten U.S. national security interests.

The following day, March 11, 2025, Fallon criticized President Biden's handling of border security by stating, "It's no question that Biden brought us the worst border crisis in history." He pointed out that for 25 years there had not been a month with over 200,000 illegal encounters until Biden's term when such months occurred frequently. Fallon expressed relief at Trump's return to office.

Later that day, Fallon highlighted what he perceives as improvements under President Trump regarding border security: "Under President Trump, we've seen a 97% DECREASE in illegal crossings." He argued that effective enforcement rather than new legislation or additional funding was key to securing the border.
