Mace Lambasts Charleston Airport for Its Security After Alleged Tirade

Rep. Nancy Mace criticized TSA and airport police over security lapses amid a government shutdown, citing 24 breaches at Charleston International Airport this year, officials said.

  • During a Monday press conference, Rep. Nancy Mace said, `Last Thursday morning, I absolutely 100% confronted the airport employees who put my safety at risk.`
  • Citing fears, Rep. Nancy Mace said she feared for her life, citing Charlie Kirk's assassination and over two-dozen security breaches this year to justify her concerns.
  • According to the incident timeline, Charleston Aviation Authority police were assigned to escort Rep. Nancy Mace before 7 a.m., she exited a vehicle at 6:52 a.m., and boarded at 7:10 a.m., while the report notes her repeated profanity and an officer's disbelief at her conduct.
  • Mace has since retained Larry Klayman, attorney, and plans to sue American Airlines and Charleston International Airport while Sen. Tim Scott and Sen. Lindsey Graham rebuke her and Alan Wilson, South Carolina Attorney General, publicly supports airport police and TSA agents.
  • Amid the shutdown, TSA agents and airport police have worked without pay, while Rep. Nancy Mace demanded a TSA single point of contact and security protocol review.
