Congressman Russell Fry, representing South Carolina’s 7th district, shared a series of tweets discussing various topics related to political and state matters. Fry, who succeeded Tom Rice in 2023, has been active in Congress since then. He previously served in the South Carolina House of Representatives from 2015 to 2022.

On January 30, 2025, Congressman Fry expressed concerns regarding the FBI under President Biden’s administration. As a member of the Judiciary GOP, he stated that he had “ample opportunity to investigate Biden’s FBI” and claimed to have found “extensive evidence of its abuse.” This included allegations such as “spying on Trump’s campaign,” “raiding Trump’s home,” involvement in the “Russian collusion hoax,” and “targeting of internal whistleblowers.” The full tweet can be accessed here.

Later that day, Fry congratulated Henry McMaster for becoming the longest-tenured governor in South Carolina’s history. He praised Governor McMaster’s leadership, stating it has ensured a “bright and promising future for generations to come” for the state. The tweet is available here.

On January 31, 2025, Fry commented on Kash Patel’s selection as FBI Director by former President Trump. He endorsed Patel as an “excellent candidate” capable of restoring the FBI’s primary mission: “to protect and serve the American people.” Fry emphasized his stance against politically motivated agendas within government agencies.
