Nancy Mace Doubles Down on Attack Comments Amid Handshake Claims South Carolina Representative Nancy Mace has doubled down on claims she was assaulted after witnesses contradicted her account, claiming the suspect merely shook her hand and asked her to support the rights of transgender people. James McIntyre, 33, of Illinois, was arrested on Tuesday evening in connection with the incident, which happened inside the Rayburn House building, and charged with assaulting a government official. On Wednesday, he pleaded not guilty to the charge. Police said they were able to track down McIntyre after Mace's office reported the assault shortly before 6 p.m., with the representative claiming in a post on X, formerly Twitter, that she was "physically accosted."
