A police report obtained by Newsweek said that officers were dispatched after an individual allegedly "violently shook" Mace's hand.

Summary

Representative Nancy Mace claimed to have been assaulted by James McIntyre, a transgender rights advocate, at a foster youth event.

However, eyewitnesses report that McIntyre merely shook Mace’s hand and discussed transgender youth support, leading to his arrest and charges of assaulting a government official.

This incident raises concerns about the safety of expressing opinions on Capitol Hill and the potential for misrepresentation of interactions.

    have we really reached the point where the word trans can’t be published?

    I think that’s her in her own tweet. Republicans are trying to train the masses to see “trans” as a dirty word. It’s part of the fascist program of dehumanizing their chosen victims. We know where they want this to go, and we have to be ready to fight it.
