- Published Monday, the New York Magazine piece features multiple former staffers alleging Rep. Nancy Mace used official aides for personal and campaign-related tasks.
- Reported directives included late-night liquor runs and cleaning her rental properties, including preparing and tidying a $3.9 million Isle of Palms beach home on Election Night 2022.
- Former aides say Mace pressed staff to inflate her standing on Reddit forums, echoing earlier reporting that staff created burner accounts to boost her online image.
- A related matter has been referred by the Office of Congressional Conduct to the House Ethics Committee, which has not found wrongdoing and plans to outline next steps by March 2.
- Mace’s office dismisses the allegations as defamatory, while coverage notes political fallout for her gubernatorial bid and frayed ties with Trump after her vote to release additional Epstein files.
