On April 3 at 14:43:51 UTC, Burlison criticized mainstream media outlets NPR and PBS, stating, "NPR and PBS are components of the liberal media apparatus. Federal funding would be better allocated to more pressing priorities. It’s time to turn off the spigot. @jsolomonReports @DOGECommittee". This reflects his view that funding should be redirected away from these media organizations.
In another tweet posted on April 3 at 15:54:37 UTC, Burlison expressed his concerns regarding government resource management, stating, "This outrageous waste of resources is a glaring symptom of a bloated, out-of-touch bureaucracy that prioritizes inefficiency over accountability. @DOGECommittee".

On the same day at 17:49:55 UTC, Burlison commented on Democratic interest in border security. He stated, "Let’s give a slow clap for the Democrats’ newfound interest in border security. Hypocrisy this blatant would be comical if four years of an invited border crisis didn’t come with such a deadly price tag."
