In a series of tweets, Representative Steven Horsford of Nevada presented his views on recent actions by political opponents, specifically critiquing alleged market manipulation and economic policy decisions. Serving in the U.S. Congress since 2019, Horsford has consistently voiced his opinions on economic fairness and transparency, reflecting his commitment to his constituents.
On April 9, 2025, Horsford tweeted about perceived dishonesty in leadership, questioning the motives behind recent trade and market decisions: “If they planned this from the beginning, like they now claim—that’s not leadership. That’s market manipulation. Think about it: telling your followers to buy low, flipping a major trade policy mid-hearing without telling your own team, then watching the market soar? That’s not a…”
Horsford also addressed the issue of economic inequality, criticizing the Republican Party for policies that he claims advantage billionaires: “How many times will the GOP bail out billionaires while working Americans foot the bill? Tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy. Special breaks for corporations. Market games that leave families behind. This isn’t help—it’s protecting power and profit.” His tweet on April 9 specifically focused on tax cuts and corporate breaks.
Continuing his critique, Horsford argued on April 9, 2025, that Republicans struggle to defend their actions and called for proactive measures: “Republicans can’t even defend their own actions—they’re too busy trying to justify the unjustifiable. I’ll always fight for what’s right. But how can we have real progress when the other side refuses to even start a conversation? Now’s the time to push back—with action.” This tweet emphasized the need for dialogue and action to achieve progress.
