Congressman Pat Harrigan, a member of the House of Representatives, recently shared his thoughts on legislative achievements and political developments through a series of tweets. His posts reflect his support for policies associated with former President Trump and express concern over the actions of what he describes as the “radical left.”

On July 8, 2025, Congressman Harrigan tweeted about recent legislative actions by the House GOP. He stated, “I’ve said from the beginning that we need to lock in President Trump’s wins before the Left can tear them down.” He announced that last week, the House GOP passed what he referred to as the “One Big Beautiful Bill,” which enshrined 28 of Trump’s executive orders into law, focusing on issues such as border security.

Later that day, Harrigan addressed concerns about violence against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers. In another tweet from July 8, he asked rhetorically “Is it any wonder assaults on ICE are up 690% when the radical left is calling for ‘blood’?” He criticized what he termed as extremism on the far-left and praised the new legislation for providing additional support to ICE.

In a subsequent tweet posted on July 8, Harrigan declared “BREAKING: Draining the swamp is now Supreme Court certified.” This brief statement suggests a significant judicial endorsement related to ongoing efforts described as “draining the swamp,” though further details were not provided in this post.

The One Big Beautiful Bill refers to legislation passed by Congress aimed at solidifying several executive orders issued during Donald Trump’s presidency into permanent law. This bill has been a point of contention between different political factions within Congress.
