Rep. Don Bacon, who has represented Nebraska’s 2nd district in the U.S. Congress since 2017, expressed concerns on social media about the current state of the House of Representatives and issues surrounding anti-Semitism.

On November 20, 2025, Bacon posted, “The mob mentality in the House is destructive. The vast middle must resist the extremes. We need to govern this great country.”

Later that day, he made a separate post stating, “Anti-Semite alert. https://t.co/YrSvH8g4mD”.

Shortly after, Bacon commented on upcoming legislative actions with another post: “It looks like we’ll have a fifth censure resolution vote this week. Our country deserves better than the U.S. House being run with a mob mentality.
