Rep. Wesley Hunt, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Texas's 38th District since 2023, recently shared his views on social media through a series of tweets. These posts cover various topics, including critiques of the Associated Press and concerns about free speech under current political leadership.

On February 12, 2025, Rep. Hunt questioned the standards of the Associated Press in a tweet: "In line with their standards? What are the AP’s standards? This 'news wire' has been bleeding editorial for YEARS!"

Later that day, at 19:44 UTC, he expressed strong opinions regarding Big Tech and its impact on free speech: "Big Tech & Biden’s Regime CRUSHED Free Speech! We witnessed the BIGGEST assault on the 1st Amendment in U.S. history. If they can silence a sitting President, they can silence ANYONE. You can’t defecate on a President and call it 'chocolate pudding.' We’re NOT buying it."

In another post made at 20:59 UTC on the same day, Rep. Hunt shared a lighter moment by showcasing his attire with the caption: "Wes Hunt FIT CHECK. #NewRepublicanParty "
