Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) repeatedly cursed at law enforcement officials at Charleston International Airport on Thursday, calling police “f***ing incompetent” and berating Transportation Security Administration personnel, according to the incident report.
The scene, first reported by Wired on Friday, began when police tasked with escorting Mace to her gate were a few minutes late in meeting her car outside the airport.
Mace chose to use an access lane intended for flight crew members, a smaller checkpoint that is part of the Known Crewmember program and overseen by TSA. Officers from the Charleston County Aviation Authority Police Department, who expected her at a different entrance, were informed of her location within ten minutes and located her quickly.
The moment Mace’s car was approached by officers, the congresswoman began “loudly cursing and making derogatory comments” about the police department, according to a supplemental incident report filed by one of the officers present.
“She repeatedly stated we were ‘F***ing incompetent,’ and ‘this is no way to treat a f***ing US Representative,’” the report reads.
Mace’s screed continued through the airport as she chided officers for their treatment of her.
“She also said we would never treat [South Carolina Senator] Tim Scott like this,” another officer present wrote in the report.
Mace also mentioned Scott in her partial rebuke of reports of the incident, posting on X that the entrance she used “is the entrance ALL Members of Congress use at the airport.”
The episode was reportedly so intense that it forced TSA officials to report the congresswoman to their superiors.
The Wired report on the incident states that officers in the aftermath were stunned at Mace’s reaction.
After Mace’s flight took off, the report states, an American Airlines gate agent approached the officers. According to the report, he “stated he was in disbelief regarding her behavior. He implied that a US Representative should not be acting the way she was.”
The report goes on to state that officers checked with a TSA supervisor, who told the officers “he was very upset with how she acted at the checkpoint.” This supervisor, according to the report, told the officers that Mace had “talked to several TSA agents the same way” and that they would be “submitting a report to his superiors about her unacceptable behavior.” TSA agents are not currently being fully paid, due to the ongoing government shutdown.
Another officer, on rewatching video footage of Mace’s car, determined that the mix-up arose because officials had been told the congresswoman would arrive in a white BMW. The car the congresswoman arrived at the airport in did not turn out to be white.
The report concludes with a shocking rebuke: “Any other person in the airport acting and talking the way she did, our department would have been dispatch (sic) and we would have addressed the behavior.”
TSA, American Airlines, and representatives for the congresswoman did not immediately respond to Wired’s requests for comment.
Mace has engaged in other public tirades in the past. In August, Mace snapped at a reporter for fact-checking a comment she made in an interview. Mace also lost it on George Stephanopoulos last year, accusing him of shaming her experience with rape when asked about her opinion on President Donald Trump being found liable for sexual assault.

It's sad. She needs a mental health break.
Normally I’m against it but it’s clear that she needs SSRIs.
Mediaite is a proven rag that spreads lies...
This is the second time this year that she hasn’t seemed able to hold herself together in public. We don’t need this kind of embarrassment.
White cars matter.
She is proving to be a wack job.
Her entitlement ends at her trip being paid for by the taxpayers.
Read the accounts in the New York Post, FITS News (South Carolina), Live 5 News (Charleston), The State (south Carolina), or any of the dozen or so other news sources that covered this and then tell us what the Mediaite story got wrong.

It appears that she lacks the temperament to be governor.
True dat.
With the exception of maybe three of them, I would say with nearly 100% certainty that they were all certifiably nuts.
Another idiot who thinks she deserves special treatment. Getting into the line that is specifically for flight crews? Her behavior is no different than the uppity Sheila Jackson Lee, who used to demand first class seating, even if it meant kicking the person out, who was already in that seat. I sure don’t miss her sorry ass.
You got a problem with her going off on Rapin' Bill's vicious little lap dummy Stephy?
She could beaten that lying little malicious jerk with her stiletto heels until she drew blood, and I would have cheered it on.
“It appears that she lacks the temperament to be governor.”
She’s not running for Governor is she? Are you getting her mixed up with Elise Stefanik?
I really believe Congress shouldn’t be paid and their staff members shouldn’t be paid until they open up the government and start doing things the way they’re supposed to be doing things make it hurt on them not the American people not the TSA guys the guys in the control tower it’s freaking unbelievable
Yep.
Google is your friend.
I’m betting that if I did that I would be on the No Fly List in about 1 nanosecond.
