Eric Burlison, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Missouri’s 7th district, recently shared his views on various political matters through a series of tweets. Burlison, who has been serving in Congress since 2023 and previously held positions in the Missouri House of Representatives and Senate, expressed critical opinions on topics ranging from political behavior to fiscal policies.
On February 5, 2025, Burlison tweeted about what he termed “Musk Derangement Syndrome,” stating “Musk Derangement Syndrome is quite the strain!” This comment appears to reflect his perspective on public reactions to Elon Musk.
Later that day, Burlison addressed what he described as misplaced outrage within the Democratic Party. He stated “The faux outrage is falling on deaf ears because the Democrat Party is a train wreck that had its pet money laundering scheme unveiled.” The tweet was posted at 18:06:58 UTC.
In another post made at 18:46:42 UTC on the same day, Burlison expressed concern over national fiscal policies. He remarked “We’re witnessing the death rattle of a government addicted to spending, with a national debt of $36 trillion pushing us towards a fiscal cliff where current policies could lead to an inescapable debt spiral.” This tweet highlights his apprehension regarding the growing national debt and potential economic consequences.
