Dr. Roger Marshall, U.S. Senator representing Kansas, posted a series of statements on his social media account in September 2025 addressing trade agreements, federal personnel decisions, and fiscal policy.

On September 19, Dr. Marshall celebrated recent developments in agricultural trade between the United States and Taiwan. In his post, he stated: "Big victory for Kansas farmers and ranchers! It was an honor to meet with Taiwanese officials this week to discuss this landmark trade agreement. President @realDonaldTrump is prioritizing America’s farmers, and delivering major wins." The message highlighted both the significance of the trade agreement for Kansas's agricultural sector and former President Donald Trump's involvement in advancing these interests.

Later that day, Dr. Marshall commented on administrative changes at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), referencing Secretary Kennedy and Dr. Monarez: "One reason @SecKennedy fired Dr. Monarez is that she fired the person responsible for identifying conflicts of interest at the CDC — the swamp runs deep in DC." This statement pointed to ongoing concerns about oversight and ethics within federal health agencies.

On September 21, Dr. Marshall criticized Democratic fiscal strategies, posting: "Democrats solution to every problem is to throw more money at it — that doesn’t work anymore."

Senator Marshall's comments reflect broader political debates over U.S.-Taiwan trade relations—an area that has seen increased activity in recent years as both countries seek to strengthen economic ties—and ongoing scrutiny of federal agency governance and spending priorities.
