"Plans to give you hope and a future": Mace posts a Sunday scripture verse, and the reply thread answers back
At 9:00 AM on Sunday, July 5, 2026, Nancy Mace posted Jeremiah 29:11 to X, a serene verse about the Lord's plans 'to prosper you and not to harm you.' The reply thread answered with a pile-on: hypocrisy jabs, scripture thrown back at her, 'MAGA Jesus is not Jesus,' and a handful of amens. Scripture posting is a documented, years-long habit for Mace, and Sunday morning is one of its most consistent slots. This dispatch catalogs the post and the public reaction, lays out the competing readings of why she posts these verses, and takes no position on Mace's medical or psychological state.

Trump endorses both SC runoff candidates: 'These were the two that I was hoping would get into a Runoff'
On June 19, 2026, four days before the June 23 South Carolina Republican gubernatorial runoff, President Trump posted on Truth Social that rather than choose between the two candidates still standing, Lt. Gov. Pam Evette and Attorney General Alan Wilson, he would endorse both. He wrote that 'these were the two that I was hoping would get into a Runoff, and they did.' Neither is Nancy Mace, who finished fifth (about 12.1 percent) in the June 9 primary and has said her vote to release the Epstein files cost her Trump's support. The Washington Post had reported on June 16 that Trump was weighing exactly this dual endorsement. Post & Courier reporter Caitlin Byrd surfaced the post.

"We don't have any faith in our justice system": after the loss, Mace recirculates a February Epstein documentary
On June 18, 2026, nine days after conceding fifth place in the South Carolina Republican gubernatorial primary, Nancy Mace recirculated a clip from Tommy G's February 25, 2026 YouTube documentary on the Epstein files, paired with a post declaring a 'two-tiered system of justice' and 'no faith' that co-conspirators will ever be jailed. The clip is nearly four months old; she surfaced it days after framing her defeat as the price of her Epstein-files vote. This dispatch catalogs the posts as public artifacts and takes no position on Mace's medical or psychological state.

"Radical transgender experiments": Nancy Mace's "TRANS MICE Act" goes to war with the transgenic lab mice scientists use to study cancer
On June 18, 2026, Nancy Mace promoted her 'TRANS MICE Act' on X, declaring that 'animals should not be used for radical transgender experiments' and calling it 'ideological cruelty.' The bill, H.R.4512, is real. So is the problem: the mice are transgenic, not transgender. Transgenic mice are genetically modified rodents used to study cancer, endometriosis, infertility and other diseases. Scientists and the research-advocacy group Americans for Medical Progress say the studies have nothing to do with gender identity. The post went viral as a self-own; the photo Mace attached is a standard transgenic research mouse.

Mace calls deporting 'Somalia-first' Ilhan Omar the best '250th birthday present to America'
On June 15, 2026, six days after finishing fifth in the South Carolina Republican gubernatorial primary, Nancy Mace posted on X and Facebook that 'there would be no better 250th birthday present to America than seeing Somalia-first Ilhan Omar deported.' Omar, a sitting U.S. representative, has been a naturalized U.S. citizen since 2000, and fact-checkers note U.S. citizens are not subject to deportation. The post is the latest in a running Mace-Omar feud that runs back through her September 2025 censure push and her May 2026 constitutional amendment. This dispatch catalogs the post as a public artifact and takes no position on Mace's medical or psychological state.
