Josh Brecheen, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Oklahoma's 2nd district, shared his views on several issues through a series of tweets on February 11, 2025. Brecheen, who succeeded Markwayne Mullin in 2023 and has been active in politics since his time in the Oklahoma Senate from 2010 to 2018, addressed topics ranging from government spending on food programs to energy policy.

In a tweet posted at 02:15:18 UTC, Brecheen stated, "Taxpayers should not be funding junk foods or sugary drinks in the SNAP program and then also foot the bill for the potential health consequences." He encouraged readers to learn more about this issue by following additional resources provided.

Later that day, at 14:52:38 UTC, Brecheen commented on energy policy by advocating for the repeal of the Inflation Reduction Act. He expressed concern that without repeal, "affordable natural gas will be displaced on our power grid by unreliable and taxpayer-subsidized wind and solar in the next 20 years."

Brecheen concluded his series of tweets with a post at 16:53:24 UTC discussing America's energy strategy under former President Trump. He emphasized the need for "common sense, reliable, affordable energy NOW," citing Trump's mandate to make America energy dominant.
