Rep. Wesley Hunt’s press office shared a series of statements on August 19, 2025, addressing crime in Washington D.C., the White House’s response to media scrutiny, and energy policy discussions with Houston-based Apache Corporation.
In a post published at 17:29 UTC, the account stated: “Law enforcement in DC is clearing the streets of Crime. Just last night, an MS-13 gang member was arrested as well as many criminals with assault, murder, and theft charges. These are the criminals Dems keep defending.”
Later that day at 17:49 UTC, another message read: “WH Press Sec. slams New York Times reporter who tried to question the motives of the President of the United States. President Trump met with multiple world leaders merely 48 hours after meeting with Putin on AMERICAN soil. He is the negotiator in chief—Trust in Trump!”
At 19:21 UTC, Rep. Hunt’s office posted about his engagement with local industry: “Congressman Wesley Hunt spoke to Apache Corporation, which employs 800+ Houstonians, about cutting Biden-era red tape harming Texas energy. As the Energy Congressman of the World, he’s fighting to Unleash American Energy!”
Wesley Hunt has represented Texas’s 38th District in Congress since 2023 and resides in Houston, Texas. In recent elections, he secured victories over Melissa McDonough in 2024 and Duncan Klussmann in 2022, both by significant margins.
