Nancy Mace's Response to Charlie Kirk's Assassination and Aftermath
Showing 11 Nancy Mace videos from Charlie Kirk's video collection.
Nancy Mace, the Republican congresswoman representing South Carolina's coastal First District, became one of the more vocal House Republicans reacting to Charlie Kirk's assassination and the online response that followed. She introduced a resolution to censure Representative Ilhan Omar and remove her from committee assignments over a social media repost Mace says disparaged Kirk and blamed him for his own death, arguing it violated basic standards of House decorum. Mace also joined other lawmakers, including Senator Marsha Blackburn, in publicly calling for the firing of specific employees who mocked or celebrated the shooting online, part of a broader wave of job losses that followed across airlines, newsrooms, and schools. On Piers Morgan's program, Mace described taking new personal security measures amid threats she said she and other members of Congress received in the aftermath, while criticizing colleagues she believed had celebrated Kirk's death rather than condemned it. Her response fit a wider pattern among House Republicans that week: Lauren Boebert separately criticized Democratic leadership for declining to observe a moment of prayer for Kirk on the House floor, and Trump himself later called for Omar's impeachment from Air Force One, questioning her fitness to serve.
