State Senator Jay Block, a Republican representing New Mexico’s 12th Senate district since 2025, posted a series of comments on his Twitter account between May 14 and May 15, 2026. The tweets covered topics ranging from criminal justice to international affairs.
On May 14, Block reacted strongly to an incident involving a child, writing: “One of the sickest thing I’ve ever seen. This man should get the death penalty. Pary for the family of this beautiful baby.”
Later that day, he commented on political developments in Ireland with the statement: “What is going on in Ireland? Seems they have a freedom famine.”
On May 15, Block shared a brief endorsement without further context: “I like it.”
Block was elected to the New Mexico State Senate in 2025, succeeding Jerry Ortiz y Pino as representative for the state’s 12th Senate district.
