On April 18, 2025, Babin questioned the actions of President Biden concerning border wall funding. He remarked on a judicial decision regarding President Trump and congressional funding: “If this federal judge says Trump can’t unilaterally kill congressionally approved funding, how did Biden get away with ending border wall funding?”.

He commented on its achievement by stating: “Congratulations to @SanJacCollege for being named a Finalist with Distinction for the 2025 @AspenInstitute Prize, officially one of the TOP 3 community colleges in the entire nation!” He praised the institution for its excellence in education and workforce training.
On April 19, 2025, Babin expressed concern over acts of violence related to political extremism.
