I never said that the Eagle is holding a 'mace' at all. I was not even thinking of The Great Seal. I mentioned the Mace of the United States House of Representatives because it does have a bundle of rods like the Roman Fasces, insignia of official authority in ancient Rome that was referenced to in the article.
My apologies. I thought you were defending the author’s misrepresentation of our Seal.
