Congressman Ben Cline, representing Virginia’s 6th district since 2019, shared his views on recent political developments through a series of tweets. Born in Stillwater, Oklahoma, and currently residing in Fincastle, Cline has been an active member of the U.S. Congress following his tenure in the Virginia House of Delegates from 2002 to 2018.
On March 5, 2025, Congressman Cline commented on President Trump’s recent address. He stated that “President Trump just delivered a bold, positive vision to secure our border, revive our economy, and restore American strength. Leadership is back, our enemies are on notice, and we’re making America great again.”
Later that day at 06:04 UTC, he expressed enthusiasm about discussing his reaction with local media outlets regarding President Trump’s Joint Address. Cline tweeted “It was great talking with local media outlets tonight to discuss my reaction to President Trump’s Joint Address. I’m excited for what the next 4 years of this Administration will do to strengthen our country and deliver results for the American people.”
In another tweet posted at 14:41 UTC on the same day, Congressman Cline criticized open border policies attributed to left-wing politics. He remarked that these policies have led to negative consequences such as drug trafficking and crime across communities including those in Virginia. He acknowledged efforts by Secretary Noem stating “The Left’s open border policies let deadly drugs, violent crime, and dangerous gangs pour across the border… It’s great to see @Sec_Noem out there on the ground working to keep our communities safe…”
