Mark Takano, a member of the U.S. Congress representing California's 39th district, has been vocal on social media regarding recent actions by the current administration and the Department of Defense. In a series of tweets, Takano addresses concerns about historical narratives and constitutional issues.
On March 18, 2025, Mark Takano expressed his disapproval of the current administration's approach to military history. He stated, "The current Administration doesn’t seem to appreciate our military's history; they are afraid of it. That will not stop me and my colleagues from holding them accountable for erasing the stories of heroic patriots."
The following day, on March 19, 2025, Takano further elaborated on this issue in relation to the Department of Defense. He tweeted that "The Department of Defense is scrubbing stories of some of the most heroic patriots from their history." He encouraged readers to explore his perspective further in an op-ed published in Stars and Stripes.
On March 20, 2025, Takano shifted focus to broader constitutional concerns with a tweet questioning presidential conduct. He remarked that "A President skirting the rule of law puts pressure on our Constitution as well as our financial markets." He questioned which companies would want to invest in a country where legal frameworks are allegedly ignored.
