Jamie Raskin U.S. House of Representatives from Maryland's 8th district | Official U.S. House Headshot
Rep. Jamie Raskin, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Maryland’s 8th district, recently expressed his views on current political issues through a series of tweets. Raskin, who has been serving in Congress since 2017 after replacing Chris Van Hollen, shared his concerns about governance and judicial independence.
On March 26, 2025, Rep. Raskin tweeted: "We are being governed by incompetents and broligarchs who would start World War III with a pocket dial." This statement reflects his critical perspective on the current administration's competence and decision-making processes.
In another tweet posted shortly thereafter on the same day, Raskin shared links without additional commentary: "https://t.co/ttPuHvdA1a https://t.co/m4QQWycIv7". The content or context of these links was not elaborated upon in the tweet itself.
Later that day, Raskin addressed legal matters involving former President Trump. He stated: "Trump is imposing an ultimatum on judges: agree with my bogus analysis of the law or face impeachment. Never has a judge been impeached over doctrinal differences—in other words, for doing their jobs. MAGA now wants to make sound legal analysis a high crime and misdemeanor." This tweet underscores his concern about perceived threats to judicial independence and integrity.
