Summary

During a House Oversight Committee hearing, Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) repeatedly shouted an anti-trans slur despite objections from Democratic Rep. Gerald Connolly.

She defended her remarks by attacking transgender rights and dismissing criticism.

The outburst drew condemnation from LGBTQ+ advocates and political figures, highlighting her shift from previously supporting LGBTQ+ rights to embracing anti-trans rhetoric.

Mace has used the slur in past statements and introduced legislation restricting transgender rights.

    But I’m just sitting here, genuinely wondering what the slur is she used, because I have no idea. I’m not well versed in trans slurs. Idk, news reporting should at least give me some way to find out… Like a spoiler tag to click on. Just… something.
