Rep. Frank Pallone, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing New Jersey's 6th district, shared his views on various political issues through a series of tweets on February 7, 2025. These tweets covered topics ranging from international relations to domestic investigations.

In a tweet posted at 18:46 UTC, Pallone criticized former President Donald Trump's tariff negotiations with Canada. He stated: "You can’t make it up: the “concessions” Donald Trump is claiming he got for his dumb tariff threats Canada already promised … back in December." He concluded by calling it a "bad deal" and referring to Trump as a "bad businessman."

Later that day, at 20:38 UTC, Pallone highlighted efforts to strengthen U.S.-Armenia relations. He announced that the bipartisan Congressional Armenian Caucus Co-Chairs had sent a letter to Secretary Rubio urging key steps in this direction. He expressed readiness to collaborate with the Secretary and the State Department: "NEW: The bipartisan Congressional Armenian Caucus Co-Chairs just sent a letter to @SecRubio urging key steps to strengthen the U.S.-Armenia relationship."

In another post made at 21:59 UTC, Pallone called for an investigation into Elon Musk concerning data privacy issues. He raised concerns about Musk's alleged associates having access to sensitive healthcare information of Americans and potentially exploiting it: "I’m demanding an investigation into Elon Musk and the access his anonymous “DOGE” lackeys have to Americans’ sensitive health care information, which they can exploit and weaponize."
