BREAKING: GOP Congresswoman Nancy Mace Assaulted On Capitol Hill

By CONGRESS

U.S. Representative Nancy Mace (R-SC) reported that she was “physically accosted” on Capitol Hill by a pro-transgender individual, as she revealed in a post on X on Tuesday evening after emerging as a vocal critic of transgender ideology and is currently leading an effort to prevent transgender-identifying males from using the women’s bathroom in the Capitol.

“I was physically accosted at the Capitol tonight by a pro-tr*ns man. One new brace for my wrist and some ice for my arm and it’ll heal just fine,” Mace posted on X, adding that an arrest has been made. “Your tr*ns violence and threats on my life will only make me double down,” Mace continued, concluding her post with “FAFO,” short for “f**k around and find out,” followed by the hashtag “HoldTheLine.”



The U.S. Capitol Police confirmed that just before 6 p.m., the office of a member of Congress, later identified as Representative Nancy Mace, reported an incident in the Rayburn House Office Building. According to a statement from the department, officers with the Threat Assessment Section apprehended 33-year-old James McIntyre of Illinois in connection with the incident. McIntyre was arrested on charges of assaulting a government official following an interview with Capitol Police. The statement added that the Rayburn Building was open to the public at the time of the incident and that McIntyre entered the building after going through security screening.

Last month, Mace introduced a bill that would bar male transgender-identifying individuals from using the women’s bathroom at the Capitol Building. Democrats have attempted to claim the move was made in response to the election of incoming U.S. Rep. Sarah McBride (D-DE), who was elected last month. Mace has rejected the notion that her legislation is “bigoted” or “hateful,” maintaining that the bill is needed for safety reasons and that she is a survivor of rape and domestic abuse.

“I’m not going to allow biological men into women’s private spaces. I will stand in the brink and stand in the way of anyone on the radical left who thinks that it’s okay for a penis to be in a women’s locker room or a bathroom or a changing room. Hell no. I’m not going to stand for it. And the Speaker said it would be in the House Rules package,” Mace said when asked about the bill by ABC News last month.

“This is not okay. I’m a survivor of rape, I’m a survivor of sexual abuse, and I’m not going to allow any man in any female private space. End of story. And by the way, I’m getting death threats from men pretending to be women. Why is it that these crazy people, the insanity, the radical left, are willing to kill women over a man’s right to be in a women’s restroom?” she added.
