Congressman Pat Harrigan has taken to social media to express his views on the current state of affairs in California and broader national issues. His recent tweets address governance, border security, and civil unrest, reflecting his perspective on these matters.
On June 8, 2025, Congressman Harrigan criticized the leadership in California with a pointed remark directed at the state’s governor. He stated, “You don’t get to let your state spiral into chaos and then cry foul when someone finally steps in to fix it. You made this mess, @CAgovernor.” This comment underscores his disapproval of how the state’s challenges have been managed.
The following day, June 9, 2025, he further elaborated on his stance regarding national security and law enforcement by referencing former President Trump’s policies. Harrigan tweeted that “Yes, this is what Trump wanted. A border that means something, laws that are enforced, and streets that are safe.” He continued by addressing California’s governance again: “You failed California, and America won’t be your next victim.”
Later on June 9th, Harrigan commented on civil unrest occurring in Los Angeles. He expressed strong opinions about those involved in riots within the city: “The ones rioting in LA abandoned their country, broke into ours… They’re not seeking freedom… They’re here to take what they didn’t build…” His statement reflects a critical view of certain immigrant groups participating in these events.
