Rep. Nancy Mace Allegedly Assaulted by James McIntyre, Transgender Activist, at Capitol
Dec 11, 2024, 06:35 PM
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) was allegedly assaulted on Capitol Hill by James McIntyre, a 33-year-old Illinois resident and transgender rights advocate. The incident, which occurred on Tuesday evening, led to McIntyre's arrest by Capitol Police on suspicion of assaulting a government official. Mace reported that McIntyre grabbed her hand, aggressively tightened his grip, and shook her around by her arm, resulting in her wearing a brace for her wrist and applying ice to her arm. Despite these claims, a foster advocacy group and some witnesses dispute Mace's account, suggesting the interaction was merely a handshake. McIntyre has pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor assault charge, and was released from jail. The event has sparked controversy, with some seeing it as an attack on Mace for her stance on transgender policies, while others question the severity of the incident. Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) condemned the alleged attack, and Capitol Police Chief testified on the increasing incidents of 'swatting' attacks on members of Congress.
