Rep. Jason Smith, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Missouri’s 8th district, shared his views on border security and related policies through a series of tweets on November 26, 2024. The tweets criticized the current administration's handling of border issues and expressed support for former President Donald Trump's approach.
In a tweet posted at 14:35 UTC, Rep. Smith commented on the murder case of Laken Riley, linking it to broader criticisms of the Biden-Harris Administration’s border policies. He stated that "The details that have emerged from Laken Riley’s murder reveal the horrific reality of the Biden-Harris Administration’s open border policies." He further emphasized that "President Trump will prioritize the safety of American citizens because he knows border security is national security."
Later in the day at 17:05 UTC, Rep. Smith reiterated his stance by stating that "President Trump is not even in office yet but has already paid more attention to the crisis at our southern border than the Biden-Harris Administration." He concluded this post with an assertion about Trump's previous term: "Under President Trump, our border was secure, and it will be again."
