Rep. Nancy Mace, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing South Carolina's 1st district, has recently shared a series of personal and poignant tweets on social media. Known for her tenure since 2021 after succeeding Joe Cunningham, Mace continues to engage with her constituents through candid reflections and statements.

On February 16, 2025, Rep. Mace shared a distressing incident from the previous year, stating "Last year, I had to tell a woman she’d been r*ped—she had no idea because she was incapacitated when it happened. I knew because I accidentally found the video of her being r*ped." This tweet highlights a troubling experience where she encountered evidence of a crime unbeknownst to its victim.

Later that day, at 01:53 UTC, Rep. Mace posted another tweet expressing resilience and determination: “Today I stand defiant - my fist in the air - to say as loudly and as boldly as I can: I am ready to take on the challenges of this moment. To the naysayers living in my past, I want you to know I don't live there anymore. And your lies will never break me.” This statement underscores her commitment to facing current challenges while dismissing past detractors.

In a reflective tone later on February 16th at 12:46 UTC, Mace tweeted a biblical reference from Genesis 19:26: “But Lot's wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.” - fleeing Sodom and Gomorrah. This allusion suggests contemplation on looking forward rather than dwelling on the past.
