Rep. Mike Collins, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Georgia's 10th district since 2023, recently shared his thoughts on various topics through social media posts. Collins, who succeeded Jody Hice, has been vocal about historical events and current political issues.

On November 26, 2024, Rep. Mike Collins commemorated a significant historical event in American history by stating: "On #ThisDayInHistory in 1789, the first national Thanksgiving in America takes place. The 'first' Thanksgiving was held by the Pilgrims in 1621 at Plymouth, where they feasted to thank God for their harvest, inviting the Wampanoag tribe to join them."

Later that day, he commented on the cost of a traditional holiday meal with a rhetorical question: "Is the $58 Thanksgiving dinner for 10 in the room with us right now?" This post highlights concerns about inflation and rising costs associated with holiday celebrations.

In another tweet posted on November 26, 2024, Collins expressed optimism about future political developments under an upcoming administration: "We’re still over a month away from inauguration and the Trump Effect is already delivering huge wins. Ceasefire in the Middle East Businesses are ditching DEI Migrants are deporting themselves This is going to be an incredible four years for America. Get ready." His statement reflects his support for policies anticipated during this period.
