On May 1, 2017, Timpf became a co-host for Fox News Channel's afternoon show called Fox News Specialists with co-hosts Eric Bolling and Eboni K. Williams.

Fox News Specialists was canceled on September 8, 2017, after Bolling was fired by the network for alleged sexual misconduct.

Timpf's December 27, 2018, column was publicly retracted by National Review.

National Review has stated that the column "left out relevant details" of a Title IX sexual harassment case involving students at the University of Missouri.

Timpf's story implied that a female student had complained about unwanted advances due to the fact that the alleged harasser was larger than she was; according to National Review, however, a deposition in the case revealed that the alleged harasser "had made repeated, unwelcome advances toward the female student and was found in violation of Title IX for stalking her".

Timpf lives in Manhattan.

She was raised as a Roman Catholic and remained a devout Catholic until the age of 17, when she moved away from the faith.

She is a libertarian and believes in limited government, no involvement in economic policy, and allowing social decisions to be made by the individual.

According to Timpf, "there is something about me for everyone to hate, but there is also something about me for everyone to agree on."
