Rep. Eric Burlison, currently serving Missouri’s 7th district in the U.S. Congress, shared his perspectives on several issues through a series of tweets in March 2025. His statements addressed fiscal policy, leadership within the FBI, and commendation for individuals showing integrity under pressure.
On March 17, 2025, Rep. Burlison expressed his views on governmental fiscal management by stating "We need to start running Congress like a business, and that starts with balancing the budget." This tweet highlights his focus on financial responsibility within legislative processes.
The following day, March 18, 2025, he commented on the state of leadership at the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). He tweeted "The FBI is in good hands with @FBIDirectorKash and @FBIDDBongino. The dark days of a weaponized FBI are over, and justice can once again prevail." His statement reflects confidence in current FBI leadership and an optimistic outlook for its future operations.
Later that same day, Burlison acknowledged acts of bravery by Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler against administrative challenges. He tweeted "Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler showed incredible courage in the face of an administration that punished them for their integrity. Thank you @SecScottBessent!" This message underscores his appreciation for those who uphold integrity despite facing adversities.
