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.
I want to make something clear. Between Gerrymandering, the amount of political advertising, the overwhelming power of “lobbying” (see, legal bribes), and outright propaganda being touted as news, the American people have the smallest control over their government than ever. This is the government our oligarchs chose, one that wastes as much time doing nothing in order to let the rich rob our collective coffers.
