John Garamendi, a member of the U.S. Congress representing California's 8th district, has been vocal on social media regarding recent political events and policies. On March 6, 2025, he joined his colleague @RepThompson in criticizing President Trump's address and highlighted the Democratic response to Republican cuts to Medicaid and Veterans benefits. He noted that Democrats are reacting to Trump's presidency each Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday with the hashtag #WTFShow. "Joined my long time colleague @RepThompson in reacting to President Trump’s disaster joint address and how democrats are fighting back against Republicans cuts to Medicaid and Veterans benefits."

Later that day, Garamendi expressed his disapproval of President Trump's foreign policy decisions concerning Russia and Ukraine. He criticized Trump for aligning with Putin instead of supporting American allies and values of democracy. Garamendi questioned Trump's stance on the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. "It's outrageous that Trump would rather buddy up to Putin and send hundreds of thousands of civilians back to an active war zone, rather than support our allies and the American values of democracy."

On March 7, 2025, Garamendi announced his appearance on CNN to discuss issues related to Trump's Pentagon changes and the situation in Ukraine. This continues his engagement with media platforms to address current political challenges. "Watch me discuss Trump’s Pentagon purge and the situation in Ukraine on @CNN"
