The House Oversight Committee went off the rails on Tuesday as Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) fumed at Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) for using the term “child” in reference to her, resulting in Mace asking the Texas Democrat if “she wants to take it outside.”
“Somebody’s campaign coffers really are struggling right now. So she can’t keep saying trans, trans, trans, so that people will feel threatened. And child, listen,” Crockett said in a clip that quickly went viral, hitting Mace for her constant attacks and numerous social media posts about the trans community in recent months.
Mace jumped in and said, “I am no child! Do not call me a child. I am no child. Don’t even start, I am a grown woman, 47 years old.”
“I want to find out which of those emails,” Crockett tried to continue as Mace spoke over her.
“I have broken more glass ceilings,” Mace continued as Crockett also spoke.
“I am not a child, I am a grown woman. If you want to take it outside,” Mace added as Chairman James Comer (R-KY) gaveled her down.
“Mr. Chairman, the committee is not in order. Order or point of order! Point of order! Order! Order! Order!” other members could be heard saying.
Democrat Maxwell Frost (D-FL) took to social media to explain what happened next, writing, “Nancy Mace asked Jasmine Crockett to “go outside”. Chair Comer ruled that threatening violence against another member is okay, as long as it’s in the form of a question! Wild.”
The spat between Mace and Crockett came as the House voted to ban trans athletes from women’s sports at federally funded institutions. Crockett spoke again later during the committee meeting and slammed the GOP for attacking “the most vulnerable” members of society instead of trying to help the American public and govern.
Crockett: The fact that you just sat up there and somehow figured out how to tie trans folk to your argument makes no sense to me but let me tell you something.. Trans people ain’t going nowhere just like when the racists wanted to make sure that Black people somehow were going… pic.twitter.com/FojHvb86as — Acyn (@Acyn) January 14, 2025

I love it. The lady who gets her wrist violent “assaulted” and needs a brace after a hand shake wants to throw hands outside. Let’s go!

Lol, this could be fun:
“You want I should fuck you up now?”
“You want I should return the favor and kick your ass?”
“Do you think you’d be more attractive if I rearranged your face for you?”

Not really offbeat. More of a dumbass who still thinks middle school tactics are acceptable as adults.
