U.S. Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) broke decorum in explosive, out-of-order remarks lashing out at a Democratic colleague who was speaking in defense of gender-affirming care and reminding her colleagues that many of them have received such procedures.

“I would just like to point out that I think it’s very interesting that my colleague from South Carolina is so obsessed with the issue of trans people, using slurs to talk about them, when many people in this body have received gender-affirming care,” U.S. Rep. Sara Jacobs (D-CA) said on the House floor.

Jacobs explained that “filler,” breast implants, and Botox are all gender-affirming care.

“Lots of my colleagues have received gender-affirming care, and let me be clear,” she continued, “I think everyone should have access to the gender-affirming care that they need, and I think we should respect everybody in this country.”

As she ended her remarks, Congresswoman Mace, who was not recognized to speak, shouted, “Ridiculous! You are absolutely ridiculous! What the hell is your problem?”

“You are disgusting. You are an insult,” she added, as The Hill reported.

Mace then took her attack to social media.

Addressing Congresswoman Jacobs directly, Mace wrote: “I talk about women’s safety and your response is commentary about my body on the House floor.”

“If you knew anything about survivors you would know some women change their bodies because of the trauma of sexual violence. They live with the consequences for a lifetime,” the South Carolina Republican declared.

“PS,” she added, “I have a good surgeon if you ever want to get your nose done.”

Earlier, Mace had posted to Jacobs, “there is no such thing as a ‘tr*ns child.'”

Jacobs replied, “I feel sad for you. Stop lashing out against trans kids and pretending it’s to ‘protect women’. Hope you get the help you need.”

U.S. Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) spent about four minutes mocking the Republican Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, for having claimed that President Donald Trump had been an “FBI informant” in the Jeffrey Epstein case.

“The Speaker of the House, the third-highest-ranking U.S. official, third in line to be the President, looked into the TV cameras and told us that the current president of the United States was an FBI informant,” Congressman Moskowitz, known for his wit, said on Wednesday during a committee hearing. ”

“I don’t think in the history of this country, we’ve had a Speaker of the House, say the President was an FBI informant,” he also noted.

“I consider that to be gigantic news, and I’m just curious, have we reached out to the FBI,” he asked, “to confirm whether the President was at any time an FBI informant? I only say that ’cause the Speaker of the House obviously gets significant briefings.”

He went on to say that the committee needs to ask, “if he was an informant, is that because he was working with the FBI after he was hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein?”

“Did he turn because he got caught with Jeffrey Epstein? You know, when you’re an FBI informant, there are lots of questions about how you became an FBI informant,” he said, continuing to mock the Speaker. “When did his service to the FBI stop, you know, being a member of the deep state?”

Noting that Speaker Johnson “said afterwards, ‘well, I may have misspoke,'” he asked: “What was his misspeak?Instead of ‘informant’ did he mean ‘agent’? I mean, what is the misspeak for ‘informant’? I mean, I don’t know another word that we use when we’re describing an FBI agent or FBI informant or undercover.”

“And if he was lying then, is he lying now?” Moskowitz challenged, before suggesting that “maybe the Speaker should come to our committee and tell us what he meant when he said that.”

“If he wasn’t an FBI informant, and that’s fine if the answer is no, I just think we need to hear from the FBI. The Speaker has confused the American people whether Trump was working with the FBI against Jeffrey Epstein because he had information about Jeffrey Epstein, because he was there for a long period of time, and then and then got turned, maybe by the FBI. I mean, did Trump ever go undercover?”

Two former top Trump officials from his first administration sounded the alarm after Russia attacked Poland Tuesday night, as several critics assailed the President for years of insisting Putin would never have dared attack Ukraine if he were in office.

Russia launched more than a dozen drones into Poland, which “prompted NATO forces to launch warplanes overnight,” according to The New York Times.

But NATO reportedly did so without help from the U.S.

“It’s notable that the NATO response to Russia’s drone incursion across the border into Poland makes no mention of US military assistance to defend Poland,” reported Fox News chief national security correspondent Jennifer Griffin. NATO Secretary general Mark Rutte “mentions Polish F16s, Dutch F35s, Italian AWACS, and German Patriots. Russia’s testing of NATO airspace to test NATO’s response comes just days after the Pentagon informed NATO Allies bordering Russia that the US will halt training and security funding to them.”

The attack occurred as President Trump was dining at Joe’s Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab in D.C., with his Secretary of State and his Secretary of Defense. He was besieged by protestors caught on camera (video below).

Former Trump National Security Advisor John Bolton slammed President Putin and invoked Trump’s Alaska Summit as well.

“Putin has acted like he has a free hand since the Alaska summit,” Ambassador Bolton wrote on Wednesday. “He’s ignored any further conversation on a ceasefire, the Russian military is expanding its operations, and he’s received the political support of his friends Xi Jinping, Narendra Modi, and Kim Jong Un.”

Political science professor Maria Popova responded: “American weakness always fuels russian aggression.”

Former Trump Vice President Mike Pence urged U.S. action.

“As Russian drones violate Polish and NATO airspace and Russia continues to escalate it’s brutal attacks on civilian populations across Ukraine, it’s time for renewed military support for Ukraine and allies in Eastern Europe and harsh new sanctions on Russia. Peace comes through strength,” Pence wrote.

His remarks also came days after the Pentagon announced it will no longer be supporting programs that help America’s European allies stave off attacks from Russia, as The New York Times reported last week.

Meanwhile, critics are blasting President Trump for what they see as weakness and a lack of action.

Alexander Vindman, a former Director of European Affairs for the United States National Security Council (NSC), wrote: “Trump right now getting ready with: if I were president Russia never would have attacked Poland/NATO. @realDonaldTrump‘s weakness has been encouraging Russian aggression.”

Attorney George Conway, a well-known Trump critic, wrote: “None of this would have happened on any day if virtually anyone other than Donald Trump were president.”

Russian expert Julia Davis, a Daily Beast columnist, responded: “It will get worse,” to which Conway agreed.

So far, Trump has said nothing on his Truth Social account about Russia attacking Poland, but the U.S. Ambassador to NATO, Matthew Whitaker, wrote: “We stand by our @NATO Allies in the face of these airspace violations and will defend every inch of NATO territory.”
