Rep. Eli Crane, representing Arizona's 2nd district since 2023, recently shared a series of statements on social media pertaining to recent political developments. Crane, 43, a Tucson native now residing in Oro Valley, discussed Arizona's new opportunities, trade changes under the Trump administration, and concerns about the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

On April 14, 2025, Rep. Crane posted "Great news for Arizona." The brief message, meant to share some beneficial development for the state, included a link for further details.

Later that day, at 21:21 UTC, Crane followed up with another post lauding President Trump's efforts in recalibrating American trade policy. He stated, "Spot on, @StephenM. Unlike previous administrations, President Trump and his team put Americans first. The era of one-sided trade deals is officially over. With a 90-day pause, we can iron out better deals with our partners and shift focus to countering the CCP."

Approximately an hour later, Crane referenced a speech by Steve Bannon regarding challenges posed by the CCP, highlighting recent U.S. political dynamics. He echoed Bannon's sentiment in a tweet: "ICYMI - Steve Bannon delivered an excellent overview of the CCP's unrestricted warfare against the USA. While Washington, Wall Street, & Silicon Valley sold out to the CCP, President Trump sided with hardworking Americans. We still have the best cards despite years of betrayal."

Eli Crane replaced Tom O'Halleran in the U.S. Congress and continues to vocalize his political stance on international and domestic policies, emphasizing loyalty to American workers and challenging foreign adversaries.
