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.
Nancy Mace has been a disaster since she girlbossed her way into being the first female graduate at the Citadel.
Not Scott? Black officers she was accusing of racism, perhaps?
**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.
**It’s sad. She needs a mental health break.**
It’s sad because she has(or had) a bright future. 2 senators will soon be gone and she’s can use her attraction to draw in voters. Those things count. Another Madison Hawthorne.
**“It appears that she lacks the temperament to be governor.”**
**How many times has Mace been married?**
Attractive women are spoiled. Get away with too much. Every ‘lucky’ boyfriend gets tired of her $hit and with no need to change as there’s always another. They need to have their 2 kids when they’re young. That way there’ll be someone there at their death bed.
