Mills-Mace feud blows up into tit-for-tat Expulsion threats
The Hill ^ | - 04/22/26 6:00 AM ET | by Sudiksha Kochi and Emily Brooks

A simmering feud between Reps. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) and Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) has roared back up to a boil, escalating to tit-for-tat threats of expulsion as each lawmaker publicly lobs attacks on the other’s character.

Mace on Monday filed a resolution to expel Mills, citing allegations of dating violence and campaign finance laws — a move that comes amid renewed scrutiny of sexual misconduct by House members after Reps. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) and Tony Gonzales (R-Texas) resigned last week.

“Cory, your days are numbered. Start packing,” Mace said in a statement announcing the expulsion resolution.

But Mills is pointing the finger back at Mace, who has consistently been at the center of controversy and made headlines on a range of issues.

“What she’s essentially saying here is that anyone who is under an allegation or accusation, even without any findings, should actually go before expulsion. If that’s the case, wouldn’t she then herself be setting herself up for expulsion?” Mills told The Hill, in reference to Mace being investigated by the House Ethics Committee over whether she improperly collected thousands in reimbursements for lodging expenses.

“She’s under investigation with the Ethics Committee for her own fraud,” Mills said.

Both Mills and Mace have denied the allegations against them.

The bad blood between the two members dates back to when Mace forced a vote on censuring Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) last year. Mills, who was facing the threat of Democrats triggering a retaliatory censure against him if the Omar measure succeeded, was one of just four Republicans to vote to scuttle the measure — and his was the final, deciding vote.

That infuriated Mace, who then turned her sights on Mills.

Somehow, I get the impression that Nancy Mace has made a mission of ruining Cory Mills because of some very personal dispute. I don’t know what it could be. Maybe she wanted his close attention, and Cory responded “Thank, but I don’t think so”. A woman scorned? All of a sudden, she was ranting about him.

Nancy Mace is a high powered loony. She is running for Governor in now, for the 2026 election.

Meanwhile, Omar the biggest criminal in the House goes untouched, Walz must be overjoyed. This is how and why the do-nothings but spend RINO/uniparty coalition will get slaughtered in 195 days.

She’s an attention whore who occasionally says/does the right thing. Not sure about her war with Mills. She alleges that she was raped years ago, and uses that incident when it’s helpful in her career. Not sure if she’s playing with a full deck or not, but personally I’d steer clear of her.

“She’s an attention whore who occasionally says/does the right thing”

She has a strong drive. The most important ingredient in politics. This is why we have so many dummies and crazies in politics. They might be sub-clinically insane with 83 IQ, but they are driven.

I wrote her off when she opened a prayer breakfast talking about how she had to get there even though her boyfriend wanted to have sex with her.

Why is the WEAK GOP Leadership allowing this Destructive side show .

Throw this EVIL Attention Whore Diva Loon off all committees .

This creature carefully attacks a fellow GOPer so the
Left Win Media covers the brawl.
An attack of a dem would not be covered .
She sat real quiet over the Eric S well known antics .

I like to know more on her Wrongful behavior .

This woman is a EVIL entitled DIVA.
Watch the video of her attacking the poor security people at the airport .

It’s so unproductive, but that is what our side does best.

It’s my opinion that they want to be slaughtered. Those that lose seats will be taken care of in the machine. If the GOP loses, they are no longer responsible for anything, and they can watch, (many with glee), as the commies harass and hinder president Trump.

OMG. Did “Nancy from Charleston”, actually do that, something so self centered and insecure? And this at a Prayer Breakfast. That says so much about HER that she didn’t care how inappropriate it was.
This is how someone acts when deep inside, they DON’T believe that anybody wants them in that way. They overcompensate.

Makes me think of former senator Krysten Simena and her unique outfits. We all know how that performance turned out.

I hope she succeeds. Mills is the reason Omar is still in Congress. Screw him!

Mills, who was facing the threat of Democrats triggering a retaliatory censure against him if the Omar measure succeeded, was one of just four Republicans to vote to scuttle the measure — and his was the final, deciding vote.

And look where Omar is now, filing a fraudulent $30 million financial disclosure followed by a fraudulent -$30 million amendment.

If they go after Mills for campaign finance violations, then go after AOC, too, for using $19,000 in campaign donations for personal ketomine therapy, allegedly for depression, PTSD, and anxiety, from a Boston doctor and reporting it "leadership training and consulting."

A censure doesn't expel a member.
