Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) had a busy weekend antagonizing Muslim Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) to spark a tiff on X.
Leaning into a Fox News graphic confirming the killing of Iranian leader Ali Khamenei during a U.S.-Israeli attack, Mace messaged the progressive lawmakers.
“My heart goes out to Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib tonight. Sending them thoughts and prayers,” Mace wrote on Saturday.
Omar retaliated Sunday with a reference to a report citing former employees who said Mace used alcohol and weed excessively (which she denied).
“I hope you aren’t drunk and took your staff’s advice,” Omar said. “Rashida and I don’t know this man and feel confident he didn’t care about us,” she wrote about Khamenei.
