Joe Wilson, a U.S. Congressman representing South Carolina’s 2nd district since 2001, has expressed strong opinions regarding Russia's involvement in global conflicts through his social media posts. Wilson, who succeeded Floyd Spence and previously served in the South Carolina Senate, used his platform to comment on various international issues.

On February 22, 2025, Joe Wilson tweeted about Russia's involvement with Hezbollah and Iran. He stated: "Russia gave air cover for Hezbollah. Russia works directly with Iran. Russia is a State Sponsor of Terrorism. If you want to end terrorism, stop Russia."

Later that day, he addressed the state of the Russian economy and its impact on military actions against Ukraine. At 08:54 AM UTC, he wrote: "Russian economy is collapsing. As @TheStudyOfWar notes at current rate would take War Criminal Putin over 83 years to take Ukraine. War Criminal Putin is losing badly. Art of the Deal with FULL land swap ends war responsibly."

In another tweet posted at 20:09 PM UTC on the same day, Wilson highlighted an opportunity concerning Russia's influence in certain regions: "Unprecedented opportunity to remove Russia from the Middle East and Africa FORVER. But we must act now to ensure that War Criminal Putin’s military is permanently removed from Syria and does not gain a foothold in Sudan or expand its operations in Libya."
