Summary
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) claims she was assaulted at a foster youth advocacy event, but witnesses describe the interaction as a handshake.
Mace alleges defamation by media outlets disputing her account and warned them to “watch their backs.” She also shared photos of herself in a sling, prompting criticism from a former staffer who called it attention-seeking.
The man involved, James McIntyre, allegedly commented on the needs of trans foster youth during the handshake.
Capitol Police arrested McIntyre, who has pleaded not guilty, while advocates dispute Mace’s characterization.
Great fucking job, worst Carolina.
I don’t know, now that the other one had the Black Nazi run for office and still get a significant amount of the votes, I’d say it’s a toss-up.
