Rep. Brian Mast, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Florida’s 21st district, shared a series of tweets on December 3, 2024. The tweets cover topics ranging from national security to local law enforcement and political controversy.

In a tweet posted at 14:15 UTC, Rep. Mast emphasized the importance of American strength in foreign affairs, particularly regarding hostages held abroad. He stated, "This is the strength America needs. If an American is being held hostage abroad, there should be every expectation that an American is coming to get them."

Later that day at 16:53 UTC, Rep. Mast paid tribute to three members of Palm Beach County's law enforcement community who had recently passed away. He wrote, "Today, we salute farewell to three of Palm Beach County’s finest—Deputy Ignacio Diaz, Deputy Sheriff Ralph Waller, and Corporal Luis Paez...

At 19:25 UTC on the same day, Rep. Mast addressed President Joe Biden's decision to pardon his son Hunter Biden for crimes allegedly committed over a decade-long period. In his tweet he questioned the scope and reasoning behind this action by stating "Joe Biden pardoned Hunter Biden for any and ALL CRIMES committed between January 2014 and December 2024... Why such a long period? What crimes did Hunter Biden commit while his father was in the White House?"
