Easily all of us can get $150,000 each: the money line from Mace's first call with Ali Berg
A 19-second vertical clip of the money line from Rep. Nancy Mace's first recorded phone call with Alexis "Ali" Berg, April 6, 2024. Rather than a referral to law enforcement or a victim advocate, Mace pitches a civil lawsuit against her ex-fiance Patrick Bryant and tells Berg a payout of about $150,000 each is realistic. FITSNews published the full audio on June 7, 2026, reporting the recording was produced in the ADW v. Berg civil litigation. Mace's allegations on the call are unproven and contested; the people she names deny wrongdoing.
On April 6, 2024, Rep. Nancy Mace placed a roughly 44-minute phone call to Alexis "Ali" Berg, a former employee of Mace's ex-fiance, Charleston businessman Patrick Bryant. Rather than suggesting Berg contact police or a victim advocate, Mace pitches a civil lawsuit and tells her what a payout could look like:
"Easily all of us can get $150,000 each."
FITSNews published the full audio on June 7, 2026, reporting that the recording had been produced in the ADW v. Berg civil litigation and describing it as the origin of Mace's "scorched earth" campaign. Elsewhere on the same call Mace predicts Bryant "can sell a building or two, settle, be done, move on," a separate line from the same pitch.
Read the full transcript breakdown in the original dispatch, or watch the produced supercut of the entire call.
Mace's allegations on the recording are unproven and contested. Patrick Bryant has categorically denied her claims; the other people she names on the call also deny wrongdoing. The related civil litigation is ongoing and no court has ruled on the merits. Nothing here is a finding of fact.

On Nancy Mace's first recorded call with Ali Berg (April 6, 2024), Mace tells Berg she believes she was assaulted and, on the same call, lays out suing her ex-fiancé: 'it costs him a million dollars, or whatever that number is, six times 150.' Mace names the man she says she was told assaulted Berg once, with the word 'maybe,' and says 'I don't know if it was him.' On the same call she refers to suing her ex-fiancé twelve times and describes how he would pay. Two new videos group the lines by topic, each verbatim, with a clock showing when it was said.

October 9, 2026 · Dispatch"IDK who needs to hear this, but a consensual gangbang is not a rape": Nancy Mace posts it, and the reply section answers
On the night of October 8, 2026, Rep. Nancy Mace posted on X: 'IDK who needs to hear this, but a consensual gangbang is not a rape.' Most replies read it as a comment on the Cornell Chi Phi lawsuit. The reply section answered with a wave of 'I defer to your expertise' and 'speaking from experience' jokes. On her first recorded call with Ali Berg, in April 2024, Mace told Berg, who said she had no memory of the night, 'There's no way in hell you consented to it based on what I saw.' Her own words, side by side.
June 28, 2026 · DispatchIn an X thread, Mace says the amount should be higher. The public-record receipt says the earlier number was tied to photos.
After Maceopedia resurfaced the Berg-call line about '150K each,' Rep. Nancy Mace replied that the amount 'should be more' and connected the thread to 'what was done to me and others.' The public-record receipt matters because the recorded call discusses a civil lawsuit, photos, and money, not an adjudicated criminal finding.
