Mace alleges security breaches after Charleston Airport tirade

After the police report and surveillance video became public, Mace went on offense, alleging that the airport's release of information constituted a security breach, and defiantly defending her conduct toward officers.

Following the publication of the police report and airport surveillance footage, Rep. Mace responded publicly on November 2, 2025, framing the airport's disclosure of records as a "politically motivated" security breach rather than addressing the officers' specific allegations. She offered no apology and expressed no regret for her conduct, instead amplifying her criticism of airport staff.

Mace stated that she stood by any profanity she had used and challenged officers' competence directly, while also previewing her gubernatorial campaign's posture on government accountability.

"If I called them incompetent, they earned it. And if I dropped an F-bomb, I hope I did so more than once."
