"Right up until she lit the fire, some of Representative Nancy Mace's own staff and advisers didn't know what she was going to say on the House floor in February 2025, let alone that it would be a pivotal moment in her life. That speech now appears to be a before-and-after moment, separating Mace's once-promising (if often bizarrely colorful) career from the seemingly irredeemable mess it has become."
"Mace wore a white dress and three necklaces, one with her Congressional member pin and another with a thick cross. She also had crosses on her earrings, but her engagement ring was nowhere to be seen. Mace proceeded to accuse her ex-fiancé, Patrick Bryant, of secretly filming her, physically assaulting her, and engaging in a conspiracy to drug, rape, and film other women."
Representative Nancy Mace delivered an unexpected House-floor speech in February 2025 accusing her ex-fiancé of secretly filming her, physically assaulting her, and participating in a conspiracy to drug, rape, and film other women. She stood flanked by a metal safe and an in-home security camera, with Representatives Lauren Boebert and Anna Paulina Luna seated behind her. Mace identified herself as a rape survivor and said she would go "scorched earth" against the men she named. Patrick Bryant denied the allegations and sued her for defamation. Both Mace and Bryant are under gag orders. Many former staffers believe her but question her judgment and well-being.
