WASHINGTON — In her speech before the Washington Press Club Foundation on Wednesday night, Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., launched into an uncommonly sharp comedic monologue that skewered just about everyone from gun-loving Rep. Lauren Boebert to progressive Rep. Ilhan Omar.
“I love exercising First Amendment rights and have fun doing it,” Mace told Yahoo News on Wednesday morning, as news articles chronicled her colorful routineDonald Trump, Joe Biden, defeated Senate candidate Herschel Walker: Nobody was seemingly spared from Mace’s fusillade of barbs — not even the press, which hosted the lavish proceedings at the Waldorf Astoria, formerly, the Trump Hotel.
Sitting on the stage next to the podium where she was speaking, Washington Press Club Foundation President Seung Min Kim, a White House reporter for the Associated Press, looked by turns uncomfortable and amused. She added of McCarthy: “I haven't seen some of those in that many positions to appease crazy Republicans since Stormy Daniels,” referring to former President Donald Trump’s alleged onetime paramour, an adult actress.
“"C'mon, George, you give Republicans a bad name. And that's Lauren Boebert's job,” Mace said, referring to another one of her GOP colleagues.. Wednesday night is unlikely to bring the two women closer.Boebert’s office did not respond to a request for comment.
