"Yes, I did have an interaction on Thursday. I want to be very clear here. We saw last year two assassination attempts on President Trump. Just a few weeks ago, we all witnessed as Charlie Kirk was assassinated right before our eyes in public. And in the political environment we have today, there's no room for error when it comes to security, replied Mace."
"I have at this particular airport and no other. This is the only airport where I have any issues, but my children have had issues here, my employees, but we have had over two dozen security breaches at this particular airport just 11 months into this year today. I've been in four airports in the last five days without incident. So yes, I did confront those who did not show up to do the job. My safety was put at risk."
Rep. Nancy Mace confirmed confronting airport police and TSA at Charleston International Airport after perceiving inadequate security. She denied being blocked by TSA and said she did have an interaction on Thursday. She cited recent high-profile attacks and assassination attempts and argued that current political violence leaves no room for security errors. Mace said Charleston is the only airport with repeated problems, reporting over two dozen security breaches this year and incidents affecting her children and employees. She recounted prior episodes where a man followed her through Chicago airport and an attempted physical altercation at a DC airport, and praised Capitol Police intervention.
