Witnesses disputed Rep. Nancy Mace's (R-SC) portrayal of recent events after she claimed that a prominent foster youth advocate assaulted her.



By David Edwards — December 11, 2024

In a Tuesday post on X (formerly Twitter), Mace said she 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," she continued. "The Capitol police arrested the guy. Your tr*ns violence and threats on my life will only make me double down. FAFO."


Witnesses, however, told The Imprint that James McIntyre "had done nothing more than shake the congress member's hand at the House reception, and asked her to protect the rights of transgender people."

McIntyre, co-founder of an Illinois chapter of Foster Care Alumni of America, was arrested and taken away by Capitol Police.


Foster youth advocate Elliott Hinkle said there was nothing unusual about McIntyre's handshake as he told Mace that transgender youth "need your support."

"From what I saw, it was a normal handshake and interaction that I would expect any legislator to expect from anyone as a constituent," he remarked.

Hinkle argued that Mace's accusation and the subsequent arrest "sends a chilling effect of, you're not actually safe to go to the Capitol Hill and share an opinion that is true for you, that isn't violent — because right now if you do, a congressperson might say that they were physically assaulted and call the police on you. So how would a young person in care feel safe?"......

1. Apparently she added a reply purportedly from an eyewitness but forgot to

switch to a sock puppet account, so replied in the third person but under her own name.

7. yeah that sounds like a repuke

2. that gal needs a serious mental health evaluation

she's acting crazy

[OAITW r.2.0]

3. She seems melodramatic. Like she is pretending to be a Senator, but only to further her storyline.

[Ray Bruns]

15. I think they are called drama queens

[Wiz Imp]

6. She needs to be locked up. I really do think she is mentally ill (she's super obsessed with trans people).

This person she is lying about needs to sue her for everything she's got.

[jvill]

4. Everything a MAGAt says is a lie. Full stop. No reason to even doubt it.

...

[Deuxcents]

5. Sue her.

[Karasu]

8. There isn't a conservative alive who has the right to use the phrase "FAFO." The ONLY people who will be doing that in

the future are you fuckers. The rest of us know how badly you're going to fuck this country over.

And Nancy Mace can take her opportunistic bigotry and fuck herself sideways with it.

[Iggo]

10. Another RWer who thinks "someone was mean to me" is the same thing as "assault"?

Buncha snowflakes.

[Figarosmom]

11. She reminds me of the cop that tells someone hes abusing to stop resisting when they are not resisting

But the cop is using his words to cover his abuse.

[mwb970]

12. They just lie about everything, don't they?

Conservatives are such spectacularly dishonest people! Their sheer lack of morality is simply staggering.

13. I wonder what her staff says about her "behaviors"

[John1956PA]

14. The staff says she expects them to be PR operatives.

According to a recent article, Mace told her staff to see to it that she is interviewed three times per day by major news services. The staff is upset that the PR demands disrupt their routine duties.

[oasis]

17. They're busting their asses for a egomaniac

nut job. Must be some fascinating stories whispered around their private circles.

[Javaman]

16. "ya gonna believe me or ya layin' eyes?"

she's going to declare, as stupid as it sounds, that trans people are a terrorist group. just wait for it.
