'Attention seeking loser': Crockett takes aim at Mace after challenge to fight in committee hearing

Maya BoddieJanuary 15, 2025

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) challenged her Democratic colleague, Rep. Jasmine Crockett, (TX) to a fight during a House Oversight Committee organizational meeting on Tuesday.

As the Texas lawmaker referenced Mace's ongoing crusade against transgender people — which officially resulted in Rep. Sarah McBride (D-DE) being forced to use the men's bathroom in the Capitol building last week — Mace issued a threat to Crockett.

"If you want to take it outside, we can do that," the South Carolina lawmaker said.

Crockett took aim at Mace hours after the incident via social media, writing: "Nancy Mace loves the 'uneducated' as Trump calls them. Please explain to me how the same damn Karen that called Cap Police on a child who shook her hand wanted to act like she wanted to fight me?! ME… the same person who has represented real killers in court."


Crockett added, "Republicans incite violence from the highest levels of government & ALSO claim to be the party of law & order. The two cannot be true! Do yourself a favor, decide to require better of your electeds. Last I checked, threatening members in a committee room doesn’t exactly reduce the cost of eggs."

I think Jasmine should find a place in a certain DMV neighborhood so Nancy can meet her match. Nancy would end up like the song character Leroy Brown- “like a jigsaw puzzle with a couple of pieces gone”!

Women who offer to "take it outside", also chew tobacco or dip snuff and spit in public.

Rep. Crockett is one of the best politicians that I have ever seen.

(Note: I would be glad to prepare her for a fight with Mace. After having 329 boxing matches, and losing only 9 -- and reversing several foolish enough to fight me again -- I trained amateur and professional boxers. Each amateur since 1975 has won at least one Golden Gloves title, and never had a fighter lose in the pro ranks. I'll add that I never lost a street fight, either.)

Remember when Rep. Ocasio-Cortez said that?

Seems to have stuck in Mace's addled mind.

to challenge Jasmine Crockett. Seriously.
Unless you want to overreact like Nancy Mace did.
Nancy Karin Mace threw an attention getting fit.
And Jasmine just let her make a total fool of herself.
Like Nancy's staff says: She needs help.

What I always say about Mace the Disgrace -- if you want to know where she stands on any issue, it's in front of a live camera.
