Mace, alleging assault, shares nude photo of herself during House hearing she says was taken without her consent

The South Carolina Republican’s remarks follow accusations made by Mace against her ex-fiancé and other men on the House floor earlier this year.

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) shared a photo of what she described as a “naked silhouette” of herself that she said was taken without her consent while renewing allegations of sexual abuse against multiple men, including her ex-fiancé, during a House subcommittee hearing Tuesday.

The four men Mace has accused of crimes have repeatedly denied wrongdoing. The South Carolina Republican framed her testimony as part of a broader effort to advocate for stronger legal protections for victims of non-consensual recording and sexual misconduct.

The remarkable moment from a sitting member of Congress came during a hearing for the House Cybersecurity, Information Technology, and Government Innovation Subcommittee, which Mace chairs, titled “Breach of Trust: Surveillance in Private Spaces.”


“I would run through a brick wall to protect women and girls in South Carolina and to other potential victims,” Mace said during her remarks. “I want you to know I have your back.”

Congresswoman Nancy Mace displayed a poster she claimed was of her naked at a hearing on Capitol Hill on Tuesday as she accused her ex-fiancé and others of taking video of women without permission.

It was the latest in a series of explosive allegations Mace has publicly made against her ex.

The silhouette image was one of several visuals the South Carolina congresswoman used during a House Oversight Committee hearing on surveillance in private spaces.

Mace drew attention ahead of the hearing when she posted on X: “I will show my naked body on one of the videos predator and rapist Patrick Bryant took of me and many other women,” referring to him by name.

I get it. She was a victim of SA. Just like millions of other women. Don't waste valuable time accusing your abuser on the floor of the House. There are more appropriate venues for this.
