The day after chairing the House Oversight Committee hearing on surveillance in private spaces, Rep. Nancy Mace appeared on Steven Crowder's conservative program "Louder with Crowder" on May 21, 2025. The episode, titled "Donald Trump, James Comey, and Naked Congresswomen? It's an Explosion of News", continued the media amplification of the allegations Mace had first made during her February 11, 2025 House floor speech.
According to NBC News, in that floor speech Mace named four men, including her ex-fiancé Patrick Bryant, and accused them of what she described as rape, sex trafficking, and other serious crimes. These remain Mace's own allegations; they are contested and unproven, all of the named men deny wrongdoing, and related litigation (including Musgrave v. Mace) is pending. NBC News reported that the men categorically denied the allegations at the time, and the denials have remained consistent throughout subsequent proceedings.
All of Mace's allegations are contested and unproven. The named men deny wrongdoing. Related civil litigation, including Musgrave v. Mace, the federal defamation suit filed by Brian Musgrave following the floor speech, remains pending.
