Senator Markwayne Mullin has recently shared a series of statements on social media addressing foreign aid spending, border security statistics, and legislative negotiations within the Republican Party. The posts, made on July 15, 2025, reflect his views on current policy issues and upcoming deadlines in Congress.

In a post dated July 15, 2025 at 18:59 UTC, Mullin criticized various international programs funded by the United States government. He stated: “America didn’t vote for this:

Voter ID in Haiti.
‘Net Zero Cities’ in Mexico.
Wind farms in Ukraine.
Electric buses in Rwanda.
LGBTQ stuff in Uganda.
Sesame Street in Iraq.

Time to cut the fat. Deadline is Friday.”

Later that day, at 21:31 UTC, Mullin commented on new data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), writing: “NEWS: CBP has just reported JUNE 2025 was the LOWEST EVER monthly total for illegal alien border crossings. Even better: once again, ZERO aliens were released into the USA. Making America Safe Again!”

At 22:20 UTC on July 15, Mullin addressed internal Senate discussions regarding proposed budget cuts linked to Trump administration rescissions and Department of Energy reductions. He wrote: “Q: ‘Why are the Trump rescissions (@DOGE cuts) so difficult?’

A: We have 53 GOP Senators with 53 different opinions. I’m good with the package as is. And as usual, I want the best MAGA outcome that can pass.

Good news: Deadline is this Friday. We’ll keep you in the loop.”

These comments come as Congress approaches a key deadline for budget decisions and reflects ongoing debates over federal spending priorities among Senate Republicans.
