Summary

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) and Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) clashed during a House Oversight Committee hearing, with Mace asking if Crockett wanted to “take it outside.”

The dispute began over Crockett’s call to reinstate a civil rights subcommittee, disbanded by Republicans in 2023.

Mace criticized Democrats and referenced anti-trans legislation, prompting Crockett to accuse her of exploiting the issue for campaign fundraising.

The spat escalated to social media, where Crockett labeled Mace an “attention seeking loser.”

Mace later clarified she only sought a private discussion, not a physical altercation.

      Fascists are able to simultaneously see their opponents as powerfully oppressive and unimaginably weak. They live in their own reality.
