""Since it's already being reported - Yes I left the Oversight briefing with Epstein victims early. As a recent survivor (not 2 years in), I had a very difficult time listening to their stories. Full blown panic attack. Sweating. Hyperventilating. Shaking. I can't breathe. I feel the immense pain of how hard all victims are fighting for themselves because we know absolutely no one will fight for us." She concluded: "GOD BLESS ALL SURVIVORS.""
"Now, the I'm-an-empath act would be a lot more moving... if Mace weren't someone who actively bullied trans folks and immigrants with cruel legislation, or bragged about watching ICE detentions (many of which involve unconscionable human-rights violations against pregnant people). But the congresswoman seems to be someone whose own victimhood translates to political theatrics, if nothing else. In February, she gave a nearly hour-long speech on the House floor about her ex-fiancé and three other men drugging and raping her, using handcuffs as props"
Records show Rep. Nancy Mace exited a closed-door Oversight Committee meeting with six Jeffrey Epstein victims early and later tweeted she suffered a panic attack and physical symptoms while listening. Reporters observed Mace leaving visibly upset and declining questions. Critics note Mace's legislative record includes measures targeting trans people and immigrants and public praise of ICE detentions. Mace previously made extended public allegations of rape and used props and a "SURVIVOR" sticker during a House speech, later repeating accusations and sharing nude photos; the accused men have denied the claims. Observers say no significant survivor-focused legislation has followed.
