Steve Cohen U.S. House of Representatives from Tennessee's 9th district | Official U.S. House Headshot
Steve Cohen, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Tennessee's 9th district, took to social media on April 9th, 2025, to express his views on various topics. Cohen, who has been in Congress since 2007 after succeeding Harold Ford Jr., is known for his frank commentary and active social media presence.
On April 9th, 2025, Cohen tweeted a phrase that appeared to be an allusion, stating, "Coming from 'the short fingered vulgarian.' Accreditation Graydon Carter". The origins of the term trace back to longtime criticisms and descriptions in the media.
Later on the same day, Cohen shared his experience at a baseball game held at Nationals Park, writing, "It was cold at Nationals Park last night, but the Nats were hot 8 to 2 over my second favorite team the Dodgers. #goNatsgo #GoNats". The tweet underscored a supportive message about the Nationals' victory over the Dodgers.
His final tweet of the day critiqued the GOP budget, asserting that, "The GOP budget isn’t about the middle class. And it's not about the deficit—if it was, they could just direct money towards decreasing the deficit instead of giving it to billionaires. Their budget is about making the ultra-rich even wealthier. And using Social Security". Cohen's criticism highlights concerns regarding budget priorities and social equality.
