Rep. Nancy Mace Enters Flirty Texts from Vanderbilt Professor Michael Eric Dyson into Congressional Record

Sep 19, 2024, 08:48 PM

Congresswoman Nancy Mace has entered into the Congressional record text messages from CNN commentator and Vanderbilt professor Michael Eric Dyson. Dyson had previously called Mace a 'white supremacist' on air for mispronouncing Vice President Kamala Harris's name. Following the segment, Dyson sent Mace flirty text messages, including one stating, 'We’d look good together!' with a kissing emoji and allegedly begged her for photos. Mace's decision to document these messages in the Congressional record highlights the contrast between Dyson's public and private behavior.
