Nancy Mace TSA tiff ouster considered but her primary opponent has secrets of his own: ‘Bring it on’

Rep. Cory Mills, who has faced a string of past allegations, including reported domestic disputes and ethics concerns, is now weighing a resolution to expel Rep. Nancy Mace from Congress over her confrontation with airport security, further escalating a highly personal feud between the two Republicans.

According to several reports, Mills resolution says that Mace’s recent clash with Transportation Security Administration agents at Charleston International Airport justifies potential disciplinary action. Reports of the incident describe a heated exchange in which Mace allegedly berated TSA staff during a dispute tied to airport procedures. Mills has argued that the episode reflects conduct unbecoming of a member of Congress and warrants formal review, including the possibility of expulsion

Mills’ threat comes as both lawmakers have traded increasingly serious accusations, with each seeking to portray the other as unfit for office.

Mace: “Bring it on”

News of Mills potential expulsion resolution came after Mace introduced her own resolution calling for Mills’ expulsion from the House. In that effort, she cited a series of allegations that have shadowed Mills, including allegations of sexual assault and other personal and professional misconduct.

Mills has denied wrongdoing and dismissed the accusations as politically motivated. He has also pointed to the lack of criminal charges in key incidents, arguing that the claims have been amplified for political gain rather than substantiated through formal findings.

As news of Mills’ potential expulsion resolution spread, Mace wrote on X in part,

Cory Mills allegedly beats women, has a restraining order against him from threatening a woman, reports say he’s an arms dealer while sitting on House Armed Services and Foreign Affairs, and rumored to be profiting off federal contracts from his own seat.”

Mace concluded her post, “So go ahead, Cory. Bring it on.”

Mills has allegations of his own

Regarding the Mills allegations, reports highlight a 2025 incident in Washington, D.C., in which police responded to an alleged domestic dispute involving the congressman. While no charges were ultimately filed, the episode drew renewed attention to his personal conduct, including allegations that entities tied to Mills reportedly secured nearly $1 million in federal contracts for munitions. At the same time, he sat on the Armed Services and Foreign Affairs committees.

Additional reporting has outlined claims related to campaign finance practices and disputes involving former associates. Mills has consistently denied all allegations, maintaining that they are part of a broader effort to undermine him politically.

The House Ethics Committee has reviewed aspects of his conduct, including allegations of “stolen valor” regarding his military career. However, no definitive disciplinary action has been finalized as of this writing.

Mace wants to clean house

Beyond Mills, Mace has previously backed or floated disciplinary action against multiple members of Congress, tying her efforts to what she describes as a broader push for accountability across party lines.

That includes her criticism of Eric Swalwell, who resigned from Congress in April 2026 after multiple women accused him of sexual misconduct, including allegations of rape, harassment, and inappropriate conduct — all of which he has denied.

Mace has also pointed to other high-profile cases, including former Rep. Tony Gonzales, who stepped down amid allegations involving an inappropriate relationship with a staffer and explicit communications.

Any resolution to expel a member of the House faces a steep hurdle, requiring a two-thirds majority vote. That threshold has historically made expulsions rare and typically reserved for cases involving criminal convictions or clear ethical violations.

As a result, neither Mills’ potential resolution against Mace nor her effort targeting him is likely to succeed without significant bipartisan support, something that remains uncertain in a deeply divided House.
