Eli Crane, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Arizona's 2nd district since 2023, shared his thoughts on various issues through a series of tweets posted on February 14, 2025. Crane's statements cover topics ranging from government accountability to controversial funding allocations.

In his first tweet, posted at 01:51:17 UTC, Crane expressed skepticism about individuals who claim to support eliminating waste and fraud without taking action. He stated, "If you ever hear someone start a statement with 'I'm 100% in favor of getting rid of waste and fraud,' then they have probably not ever lifted a finger to get rid of waste and fraud." He added that such declarations might be excuses for continuing wasteful or fraudulent activities.

Later that day at 02:03:38 UTC, Crane simply tweeted "Yes." The brief message was accompanied by a link but did not provide further context within the tweet itself.

In another post at 16:00:00 UTC, Crane raised concerns over funding decisions made by Anthony Fauci. According to Crane's tweet, more than $200 million in taxpayer funds were authorized for what he described as "transgender animal testing." He referred to this issue as "just the tip of the iceberg" and emphasized the need to support efforts by both the President (@POTUS) and Department of Energy (@DOGE). Crane also thanked Jineane Ford for hosting him.
