Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) questioned an LGBT activist over previous tweets targeting Supreme Court Justices during a House Oversight and Reform Committee hearing on Dec. 13.
Mace asked each witness if extremist rhetoric against government officials on social media is a threat to democracy. Witnesses responded in the affirmative, including transgender activist Alejandra Caraballo, a biological male that identifies as a female who works at Harvard Law School’s Cyberlaw Clinic. The congresswoman then presented poster boards featuring a series of Caraballo’s tweets calling for officials to be accosted.
