“Protecting women and holding predators accountable isn’t a slogan. It’s been one of my top priorities in Congress. For too long, survivors have faced broken systems while predators exploited loopholes and walked free,” Mace said in her statement.

And yet here she is blaming Cornell University Jane Doe for asking for it:

“IDK who needs to hear this, but a consensual gangbang is not a rape,” Mace wrote on X.

What a douche.

    You don’t understand, defending Jane Doe doesn’t further her career like ratting out her fiancé did.

    Pedos don’t get an opinion.

    This “conservative” “woman” can sit down and shut the fuck up like she advocates for all other women.

    Really hope they have corroboration from other women.

    Mace has a dubious track record with the Truth.

    I mean really.

    And there it is:

    Mace is widely expected to jump into the 2026 race for governor, and one of her potential rivals is Wilson, the attorney general, who is the son of Rep. Joe Wilson, R-S.C.

    In her speech, Mace accused Alan Wilson of delaying an investigation into the allegations after she handed over graphic videos, photos and other evidence of the men raping her and others, as well as photographs of underage girls, last year.

    It rather sickens me that this is the one time police believe a woman out of the box.

    Every time I see Nancy Mace, I see someone who looks absolutely furious that they were not born with a penis and testicles.

    I could be dissuaded if someone was able to produce any pics or footage of Nancy being very girly-girl or feminine.

        Just an observation. Nancy goes on and on loudly with anti Trans rhetoric, but just comes across like a man in demeanor and poise.

        But they’re also conservative, and cannot reconcile the two.

        Regardless, they’re trash.

          I’m not trying to be combative or a dick here, I think it’s just incredibly counterproductive to look at a bigot and go ‘damn anyone else think she secretly belongs to the group she’s oppressing?’ or to talk about how ‘mannish’ she is as a way to discredit her. She has so much that’s awful about her, you don’t need to imply she’s trans or too masculine to be a woman to criticize her.

            Mace is and probably always will be trash, and will be known primarily for the harm they’ve caused.

            This is a methinks they do protest too much situation. They’re loud. Very loud. Much like those pastors who run conversion camps, then come out later on in life.

            Everything that you feel about them is accurate. I just think there’s a noticeably large non-zero chance that they’re deeply closeted, and therefore a hypocrite on top of everything else.

              It’s weird for you to specifically degender her while talking about how mannish and secretly trans she is, and kinda hostile to trans people. Trans people do not cause transphobia. Cis people can be bigots.

      Yeah, that’s the real problem, IMO. I wouldn’t know anything about the gender business specifically, but we know some locals familiar with her who can tell some stories, mostly petty and unnecessary bad behavior. Like the way she acted at the airport, but wherever she goes. She’s pretty infamous down there. Between that and what is available publicly it seems pretty clear that she has always been this way.

      She was the first woman to graduate from The Citadel, a historically male-only military college that had only just opened its doors to women because it had been legally forced to, in a state and specifically a social class where outward adherence to gender roles is highly prized and deviating from it punished.

      I don’t know how many battles she had to fight to get past all that to come out a finisher, the first of her kind, at one of the most exclusive bastions of masculinity in the south, but they are FAR more than I can imagine. Read up on what Shannon Faulkner went through there, and know that Mace enrolled there almost immediately after she was legally able to as a woman.

      But the question is: Why? Why would you set about throwing your entire life at tearing down walls built by society and other people that piss you off, walls that you could far more easily just avoid? Why would you walk into a lion’s den full of people that hate you and want you to die just for being there? To prove what?

      She seems to be a woman who is constantly and entirely at war: with herself, with those around her, with non-combatants she pulls in, with a sunny day itself.

      But above all she is ANGRY. That woman is deeply, deeply pissed, I mean like her existence depends on it. And until she stops and deals with it, or is stopped and has no choice but to deal with it, she will continue to move through life – and friends, and staffers, and whoever else she touches – as though they are all disposable, part of some grander conspiracy of destruction.

      Where you’d fit gender into all that I don’t know, but there is something very corrosive eating away at the core of who she is as a person. Flinging it outward on the regular might be the only way she is surviving.

      If it wasn’t three months before midterms, I might wonder why so many people are portraying themselves as leftists but acting exactly like maga…

      People can dress however the fuck they want, even if they’re shitty people. There’s valid reasons to shit on them if that’s your goal.
