Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman, a member of the U.S. Congress representing New Jersey’s 12th district, has recently expressed her views on various political issues through a series of tweets. These posts highlight her concerns about actions taken by prominent figures and government officials.

On March 23, 2025, Rep. Watson Coleman criticized certain political figures for their impact on Social Security recipients' access to phone services. She stated: "It’s outrageous that Trump, Musk, and Congressional Republicans are cutting phone service for Social Security recipients." She further commented on the inconvenience caused to individuals who are forced to travel long distances for appointments while politicians avoid in-person town halls.

In another tweet dated March 24, 2025, she raised concerns about security breaches involving high-ranking officials. She remarked: "So not only were cabinet officials sharing classified information on a non-secured text chain with a reporter, but then evidently also concealed that fact from the President? All of this is criminal and all of this should be thoroughly investigated." Her statement underscores the need for accountability and transparency within governmental operations.

Later that day, Rep. Watson Coleman tweeted about loyalty versus competency in governance: "This is the result of valuing loyalty to Trump over competency." This brief message suggests her stance on prioritizing qualifications over personal allegiances in public service roles.
