EXCLUSIVE: Nancy Mace Claims Ethics Investigation is ‘Retribution’ for Clinton-Epstein Deposition

FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL — In exclusive comments to The Daily Signal, a Republican congresswoman claimed she has been targeted by the House Committee on Ethics. This after she deposed former President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton over their ties to deceased sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

“It [the committee’s announcement] came out an hour after my deposition of the Clintons,” Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., told The Daily Signal. “When you look at that, it’s like, this is probably retaliation for Epstein, let’s be honest.”

Mace said her deposition on the Clintons was not the only effort she made to uncover the truth about Epstein’s associates that she’s made. Mace also said she will not be intimidated and vowed to “triple down” on her efforts.

“I’ve been, probably, outside of [Rep.] Thomas Massie, the most vocal republican on the Epstein files,” Mace added. “So I say, bring it on, baby. Like I just like, bring it on. I don’t care. And if they’re going to continue to harass me and do this, and I’m going to triple down on every other move that I have.”

Massie did not respond to The Daily Signal’s request for comment.

On Wednesday, Mace filed a motion in the House Oversight Committee to subpoena Attorney General Pam Bondi for a Congressional hearing over the Epstein scandal. So far, zero arrests or investigations have been made by the Department of Justice, despite the widespread scrutiny of prominent public figures like Larry Summers and political donors like Bill Gates who have admitted to having been involved with Epstein.

Later that same day, 375 House lawmakers voted against Mace’s proposal to make all congressional sexual misconduct and harassment reports public.

Mace did not rule out her effort against congressional sexual harassment as another reason for “retribution” from the Ethics Committee.

On Tuesday, she also moved to subpoena Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to testify in front of the committee over his ties to Epstein. In a photo released by the Epstein files, Lutnick was seen behind Epstein on the sex-trafficker’s private island.

In a report, the Office of Congressional Conduct wrote that there is “substantial reason to believe” that Mace had “engaged in improper reimbursement practices.”

The office recommended that the committee further review the allegations on Mace’s requests for reimbursement, which had exceeded the total of her District of Columbia property expenses, $9,485.46, during several months in 2023 and 2024.

“The Committee notes that the mere fact of conducting further review of a referral, and any mandatory disclosure of such further review, does not itself indicate that any violation has occurred, or reflect any judgment on behalf of the Committee,” the statement reads.
