Jamie Raskin, a current member of the U.S. Congress representing Maryland’s 8th district since 2017, has taken to social media to express his views on political matters. Born in Washington, D.C., in 1962, Raskin graduated from Harvard University and later from Harvard Law School. His recent tweets cover a range of topics concerning the actions and character of political figures.

On May 4, 2025, Raskin commented on the religious and constitutional nature of the current president. He stated that "Our most immoral and unethical president may also be our most religious—or most irreligious—depending on your views of religion. Either way, he’s definitely our most unconstitutional president."

The following day, May 5, 2025, Raskin addressed economic policies and their perceived consequences. He tweeted: "Thanks for clarifying: you're going to blame Joe Biden for all of the wreckage of your tariffs and other blunders, but you'll take credit for his achievements in infrastructure and manufacturing. Got it."

Later that same day, he discussed the actions of Enrique Tarrio and Donald Trump regarding legal matters and pardons. In his tweet, he mentioned: "Felon Enrique Tarrio (seditious conspiracy and obstruction of law enforcement), leader of the Proud Boys, thanked felon Donald Trump (deliberate falsification of business records), leader of the GOP, for pardoning him for his role in the attack on Congress and the police."

Jamie Raskin's statements reflect his critical stance towards certain individuals' roles within political events.
