Greenville Leader

Congressman William Timmons, representing South Carolina’s 4th district, has been active on social media discussing recent developments in his political career and expressing his views on current government policies. Serving in Congress since 2019 after succeeding Trey Gowdy, Timmons has shared several posts highlighting his engagements and perspectives.

On January 21, 2025, Congressman Timmons announced a significant appointment to the Subcommittee for the Department of Governmental Oversight and Efficiency (DOGE). In his post, he expressed gratitude to Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene and entrepreneur Elon Musk for their leadership roles. He stated: "Honored to be nominated to the @DOGE Subcommittee. Thank you @RepMTG. There is nobody better suited to lead this change than you and @elonmusk. The people voted for major reform and together, we are going to give it to them!"

Later that day, at 22:05 UTC, Congressman Timmons shared another tweet which included a link but no accompanying text or context was provided in the post itself: "https://t.co/k1eswi905H"

On January 22, 2025, Timmons voiced his stance against what he perceives as governmental overreach into social engineering concerning race and gender. Citing a statement from the President made earlier that week about fostering a merit-based society devoid of racial considerations, he declared: "We must end the government policy of trying to socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life. As the President said Monday, 'We will forge a society that is colorblind and merit-based.' Another win for ALL Americans!"
