Congressman Michael Cloud, representing Texas’ 27th district since 2018, recently shared a series of tweets highlighting issues of governance and fiscal responsibility. Born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and residing in Victoria, Cloud has been active in U.S. Congress following his predecessor Blake Farenthold. His educational background includes a Bachelor of Science degree from Oral Roberts University.
On February 12, 2025, Congressman Cloud quoted Federalist 78 to discuss the distribution of power among government branches. He stated: "The Executive not only dispenses the honors, but holds the sword of the community. The legislature not only commands the purse, but prescribes the rules by which the duties and rights of every citizen are to be regulated."
In another tweet on the same day, Cloud expressed gratitude towards efforts to combat wasteful spending. He wrote: "The War on Waste is long overdue on this side of Pennsylvania Avenue. Thank you to @DOGECommittee and Chairwoman @RepMTG for taking action and pushing forward the efforts championed by President Trump and @elonmusk."
