Bigoted congresswoman's ex-aide annihilates her over bathroom bill
Natalie Johnson, a onetime aide to South Carolina Rep. Nancy Mace, tore into her former boss over a bigoted bill to ban Delaware Rep. Sarah McBride, who is transgender, from using women’s bathroom facilities in the U.S. Capitol.
“‘Protecting women’ in Congress would be introducing a bill to bar Matt Gaetz, a sexual predator with an affinity for underage girls, from ever walking those halls again, rather than dropping a messaging bill that’s sole goal is getting on TV,” Johnson wrote on X on Wednesday.
Johnson was referring to former Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz, whom Donald Trump had nominated to be attorney general and who recently withdrew that nomination amid allegations of child sex trafficking.
"If you think this bill is about protecting women and not simply a ploy to get on Fox News, you've been fooled," Johnson also wrote on Wednesday.
Mace also appears to be fundraising off her anti-trans bathroom bill. Johnson posted a screenshot of a fundraising text for Mace that said, “I don’t want to see your junk in my bathroom. It’s Rep. Mace[.] The Trans Mob wants to k*ll me. But I FOUGHT BACK,” and included a URL that redirects to Mace’s campaign website.
Johnson replied to the text on X, writing, “I don’t want to see your botched, cheap hooker-inspired boob job on my television. Can we introduce a bill to bar that?”
