Steve Cohen, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Tennessee’s 9th district, has recently shared several statements on social media that reflect his political views and opinions on current events.

On March 8, 2025, Cohen expressed his support for an unnamed individual whom he believes is capable of leading the FBI. He described this person as "a good and brave American" in a tweet posted at 17:17 UTC.

Later that day, at 18:25 UTC, Cohen criticized former President Donald Trump by stating, "Trump is devoid of empathy and lacks a soul. A sociopath on steroids."

In another tweet dated March 11, 2025, at 03:00 UTC, Cohen accused House Republicans of misleading the public regarding their budget plans. He stated that "House Republicans are LYING when they say their budget doesn’t cut #Medicaid," emphasizing that the Congressional Budget Office had confirmed these cuts. He claimed that the GOP's budget demands $2 trillion in cuts would inevitably affect Medicaid benefits for millions.
