republican congresswoman from
south carolina, nancy mace.
welcome, congratulations on your
victory.
>> thank you.
>> being installed there in
congress.
let me first ask your reaction
to what happened to senator
graham.
your fellow republican from
south carolina i might add.
>> right.
i've been one of the most
outspoken and vocal critics of
the events that transpired on
wednesday, so to say that i feel
like a sitting duck especially
after seeing and watching that
video would probably be an
understatement.
in fact, i was escorted home by
a security detail last night
just to take an extra abundance
of caution.
you know, this is what happens
when rhetoric has real
consequences and people take
your words literally.
and that's why these events
happened on wednesday and why
i've been such a vocal critic.
it's scary.
i'm so grateful that i sent my
kids home at the first flight
out on monday morning.
my motherly instinct was it
doesn't feel right, safe, my
children don't need to be up
