Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi, who represents Illinois' 8th District in the U.S. Congress, recently shared his insights on various topics through a series of tweets. Krishnamoorthi, serving since 2017 after succeeding Tammy Duckworth, engaged with his audience on social media about current political events and personalities.
On February 5, 2025, Congressman Krishnamoorthi expressed his pleasure in speaking with @m_ccuri from Illinois’ Eighth District about recent developments in Washington. He tweeted: "Great to chat with @m_ccuri - who hails from Illinois’ Eighth District as well - this morning about the latest happenings in Washington!"
Later that day, he commented on former President Trump's self-styled role as a key negotiator in an unspecified sale. In his tweet at 17:56:55 UTC, Krishnamoorthi referenced an article and stated: "As the article itself says, Trump 'has positioned himself as the chief dealmaker to broker a sale'. Let's hope he doesn't get played by Xi and actually delivers a deal like he says he can."
In another tweet posted shortly thereafter at 17:58:58 UTC, Krishnamoorthi addressed Elon Musk's controversial comparison of the Lutheran Church to a money laundering operation. He remarked on the reluctance of certain political figures to challenge such statements: "Elon Musk likened the Lutheran Church to a money laundering operation. The @IAGovernor wouldn’t say that it isn’t one. It seems MAGA Republicans are unwilling to cross him on even the most ridiculous statements."
