Michigan State Representative Matt Maddock posted a series of tweets on August 19, 2025, addressing topics ranging from television programming to state budget allocations and infrastructure.

In one tweet, Maddock commented on the idea of a television show, stating: "Would be an instant hit show but communist pigs freeload and never actually work." (August 19, 2025).

Later that evening, Maddock discussed lobbying efforts in Lansing and recent changes to Michigan's education budget. He wrote: "90% of Lobbyists in Lansing are Dems and they are super pissed now cuz they were paid millions to insert 100+ pork projects into our Education Budget. Instead, @MI_Republicans put the Lobbyists’ wasteful pork dollars into classrooms." (August 19, 2025).

Shortly after, he referenced Michigan's infrastructure with a remark about road conditions: "Well at least it’s worth it here in Michigan because we have great roads." (August 19, 2025).

Matt Maddock is a Republican member of the Michigan House of Representatives. His social media posts often reflect ongoing debates over state spending priorities and legislative actions in Lansing.
