Irate Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) asked Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) if she wanted to “go outside” on Tuesday after the Democratic congresswoman called her a “child” during a House Oversight Committee meeting .

The meeting to approve rules for the House panel and introduce new members descended into chaos when Crockett charged that Mace’s efforts to ban transgender women from using female facilities at the U.S. Capitol were aimed at making money to collect for their campaign.

“I can see that someone’s campaign coffers are really struggling right now,” Crockett said, referring to Mace. “So she’s going to keep saying trans, trans, trans to make people feel threatened.”

“And child, listen,” she added – a comment that infuriated Mace.

“I am not a child! Don’t call me a child!” The South Carolina Republican shot back. “I am not a child. Don’t even start. I am a grown woman. I’m 47 years old.”

As Crockett, 43, continued to speak — and House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) banged the gavel repeatedly — Mace suggested they continue their heated conversation out in the hallway.

“You won’t do that. I am not a child. If you want to take it outside, we can do that,” the South Carolina Republican shouted at Crockett.

Rep. Maxwell Alejandro Frost (D-Fla.) moved to strike Mace’s “take it outside” remark from the record, but Comer ruled that the congresswoman wasn’t actually challenging her colleague to a fight.

“What the lady said…that could mean we can go outside and have a cup of coffee or maybe a beer – we have a lot of conversations outside,” Comer argued.

After the meeting, Crockett went to X and said she felt Mace had “threatened” her.

“Today I introduced an amendment to reinstate the Oversight Subcommittee on Civil Rights and Civil Liberties. My Republican colleague threatened me with a physical altercation because of this. Bless her heart,” Crockett wrote.

Meanwhile, Mace tweeted: “I will not be demeaned. I won’t give in. And I will hold the line. I don’t care how offended Jasmine Crockett is by my words.”

Crockett was also a central figure in a House Oversight Committee hearing that went off the rails last year after she attacked Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.).

Greene, 50, accused Crockett of wearing “false eyelashes” during a May 2024 hearing on whether to move forward with a contempt order against Attorney General Merrick Garland.
