Eric Burlison, currently serving as the U.S. Representative for Missouri’s 7th district, has shared a series of provocative posts on his social media account. Burlison, who has been an active participant in political discourse, replaced Billy Long in 2023 and has previously served in both the Missouri House of Representatives and the Missouri Senate. His recent statements touch on topics ranging from historical political inquiries to current socio-political debates.
On April 1, 2025, Burlison reflected on the findings of the Warren Commission, which had determined that Lee Harvey Oswald acted independently in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. He questioned the completeness of the investigation’s conclusions in his post: “60 years ago the Warren Commission concluded Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. So why are there so many loose ends?”
The following day, on April 2, he expressed his stance on government funding for Planned Parenthood, stating his position on taxpayers’ contributions to the organization. He posted: “A dollar to Planned Parenthood is a dollar to take life. Taxpayers shouldn’t have to bankroll the anti-life agenda.”
Later that day, Burlison commented on the role of government in personal identity affirmation, offering his gratitude to prominent political figures for their leadership. He stated: “The government isn’t here to ‘affirm your identity.’ Thank you, @Sec_Noem and @POTUS, for bringing us back to reality.”
