A heated meeting of the House Oversight Committee erupted into chaos on Tuesday when South Carolina Republican Nancy Mace challenged Texas Democrat Jasmine Crockett to a fight on the House floor. Rep. Mace took offense to Crockett calling her “child” while criticizing her anti-trans messaging. Crockett: Somebody’s campaign coffers are struggling right now so she’s going to keep saying trans trans trans.. Child listen Mace: I am no child! Do not call me a child. I am a grown woman.

And child, listen—” “I am no child! Do not call me a child,” Mace interrupted. “Don’t even start. I am a grown woman! I’m 47 years old.” Mace then shouted over Crockett as she started to speak again: “I have broken more glass ceilings. You will not do that. I am not a child. … If you want to take it outside, we can do that.” Republican Rep. James Comer, the committee’s chairman, repeatedly banged his gavel to call for order but did not have much success. Later in the meeting, Rep. Maxwell Frost, a Florida Democrat, asked Comer why it was OK for one member of the committee to threaten violence against another. “I did not threaten violence! I threatened no violence!” Mace interjected, shouting over her colleagues again. “You’re making s–t up as you go along.” Rep.

The legislation will still need 60 votes to pass in the Senate and it’s unclear if any Democrats will vote for it. Tuesday’s hearing was not the first time House floor proceedings looked more like reality TV than C-Span coverage. Crockett previously found herself in the center of drama last May when Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene attacked her appearance, saying her “fake eyelashes [were] messing up what [she was] reading.”
