"Mace was so obsessed with monitoring her online reputation that she instructed one staffer to go on Reddit forums about the hottest women in Congress' to boost her standing in the rankings and comment where needed. That added some sizzle to a Wired report last year about Mace making staffers create burner accounts to pump her up on Reddit. A former staffer told New York that Mace was very adamant about having her main Reddit-focused staffer upvote any posts about the congresswoman and her attractiveness."
"Mace would command staffers to bring her liquor after midnight to keep parties going at her home during her first term, which started in early 2021. Lahut notes that is technically an abuse of her office according to House rules. One unnamed ex-staffer said Mace would make her poor scheduler go out and buy bottles of tequila at 2:00 a.m."
"Lahut cheekily wrote that when staffers weren't buying booze for her, they were doing her housework. That included making aides clean multiple properties that she had on Airbnb, rather than paying for maids. One former staffer remembered one clean up job in particular on Election Night 2022, when Mace made aides clean up her $3.9 million South Carolina beach home for a watch party."
Rep. Nancy Mace instructed House office staff to perform campaign and personal tasks, potentially prompting a House Ethics Committee investigation. She ordered staff to monitor Reddit forums about the hottest women in Congress and to boost her standing through upvotes, with staffers allegedly creating burner accounts. She required aides to buy liquor after midnight to sustain parties at her home, conduct described as technically an abuse of office under House rules. Staffers were also tasked with cleaning multiple Airbnb properties, including preparing a $3.9 million South Carolina beach home on Election Night 2022. A vote to release more Jeffrey Epstein files strained her relationship with Donald Trump.
