Rep. David Kustoff, a U.S. Congressman representing Tennessee's 8th district since 2017, has shared his perspectives on various issues through a series of tweets. Born in Memphis and currently residing in Germantown, Kustoff is an alumnus of the University of Memphis with degrees in both BA and JD.
On March 17, 2025, Kustoff commented on the political climate, stating "Democrats’ recent low polling comes as no surprise. They have no agenda, no message, and no leadership." He referenced his interview with Todd Starnes on Newsmax to discuss former President Donald Trump's efforts for Americans.
In a tweet posted on March 18, 2025, he acknowledged National Agriculture Day by expressing gratitude towards farmers. Kustoff remarked "Happy #NationalAgricultureDay! Agriculture is the backbone of our economy in West Tennessee." He praised their hard work in producing essential resources globally.
Later that day, Kustoff addressed the issue of swatting—a dangerous prank involving false emergency reports to provoke law enforcement responses—by urging legislative action. He stated "Congress must act now to hold swatting perpetrators accountable and protect our communities." His call for strict penalties aims to enhance public safety measures.
