Rep. Don Bacon, who has been serving in the U.S. Congress representing Nebraska's 2nd district since 2017, shared a series of tweets expressing his views on Russia and NATO. Born in Momence, Illinois in 1963, Bacon now resides in Papillion and holds degrees from Northern Illinois University and the University of Phoenix.
On March 24, 2025, Rep. Bacon commented on Russia's geopolitical stance with its neighboring countries. He stated that "Most of Russia’s neighbors want to be in NATO because they know the reality of Russia is Siberia and gulags."
Later that day, he reaffirmed his support for NATO by describing it as a defensive organization while labeling Russia as an aggressor. He declared his allegiance with NATO by stating "NATO is a defensive alliance. Russia is an invading nation. I stand with NATO."
In another brief tweet posted on the same day, Rep. Bacon simply wrote "Genocide." This single-word post suggests a strong condemnation of certain actions or policies.
