Rep. Nancy Mace, a U.S. Congresswoman representing South Carolina’s 1st district, shared a series of tweets on February 14, 2025, reflecting on issues related to women's experiences and victim intimidation. Mace, who has been serving in Congress since 2021 after succeeding Joe Cunningham, provided insights into the challenges faced by victims and the power of truth.
In her first tweet posted at 16:44 UTC, Rep. Mace expressed empathy for women sharing their stories. She wrote, "The stories from these women were all too familiar. Now I know why."
Later that day at 17:36 UTC, she addressed the issue of threats used to intimidate victims. She stated, "These types of threats are also a way to intimidate victims. Instilling fear so victims hide in the shadows, so victims don’t come forward, so victims don’t file complaints - so there is no investigation."
In her final tweet at 18:40 UTC, Rep. Mace reflected on the nature of truth versus spin. She noted that "Truth doesn’t cause the same fear as spin. Truth is peaceful, even in its brutality."
