Rep. Adam Smith, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Washington’s 9th district, shared a series of tweets on November 20, 2024. His posts touched on a variety of topics including a birthday greeting to President Biden, recognition of Transgender Day of Remembrance, and criticism of political appointments.

On November 20, 2024, Rep. Adam Smith extended birthday wishes to President Biden. In his tweet, he expressed his hope for another year of health and happiness for the President. "Happy Birthday, @POTUS! Wishing you another year of health and happiness."

Later that day, Smith acknowledged Transgender Day of Remembrance in another tweet. He emphasized the importance of honoring transgender individuals who have lost their lives due to violence and injustice. "November 20th marks Transgender Day of Remembrance, honoring the lives of transgender individuals lost to violence and injustice. We see you; we remember you, and we stand with you."

In a subsequent tweet posted later in the evening on November 20th, Smith criticized former President Donald Trump for prioritizing loyalty over qualifications in political appointments. He specifically mentioned Matt Gaetz's appointment as head of the Justice Department as an example. "Donald Trump prioritizes blind loyalty over actual qualifications. That's what landed Matt Gaetz in charge of the Justice Department."
