Her posts highlighted interactions with local farmers and raised alarms about military communication practices.
On March 24, 2025, Rep. Slotkin tweeted about a town hall meeting she held with farmers in Sparta, Michigan. She stated: "Last week I held a town hall with farmers in Sparta on the west side of our state.

In another tweet dated March 25, 2025, she expressed concerns over military operations and communication protocols: "They shared details on specific targets U.S. troops would try to hit, and what specific weapons they would be using. That’s a problem even before they accidentally looped in a journalist."
