Nancy Mace threatens defamation lawsuit against American Airlines, Charleston airport over October incident
WCNC reported that Rep. Mace, through attorney Larry Klayman, announced plans to file defamation suits against American Airlines and Charleston International Airport over the October 30 incident. As of the report date, no lawsuit had been filed; Mace's team characterized the incident documentation as deliberately falsified.
WCNC covered Mace's legal threat as part of the broader wave of November 5 reporting triggered by simultaneous senatorial rebukes and the open letter from 61 civic leaders. The defamation suits were announced but not yet filed as of November 5, 2025. Mace retained Freedom Watch founder Larry Klayman, whose prior clients have included prominent political figures.

"We believe Congresswoman Nancy Mace has been subjected to a calculated and coordinated effort to malign her character through deliberately falsified documentation."
Attorney Larry Klayman, statement, Nov. 5, 2025, as reported by Live 5 News
