Nancy Mace Solicits Campaign Funds on Fox, Flouting House Rules.<br />South Carolina Republican Rep. Nancy Mace may have broken House rules by subtly soliciting donations at the Capitol complex — and then doubling down on her “principled stand.”<br /><br />Mace, 45, defended her fundraising off of Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s (R-Calif.) ouster in an interview Wednesday, before seemingly asking Fox Business viewers for money.<br /><br />“You’re d— right I’m fundraising off of this right now because the establishment is coming after me for taking a principle stand,” Mace told Fox Business Network.<br /><br />The California rep then continued to plug her website and ask for donations.<br /><br />“If your viewers want to help out, they can go to NancyMace.org. I am not going to be shamed for doing this. Kevin broke a lot of promises,” she added.<br /><br />Mace then posted a video of the exchange to her X, formerly Twitter account, more explicitly urging her fans to “chip in today.”<br /><br />“The House buildings, and House rooms and offices…may not be used for the conduct of campaign or political activities,” a condensed version of the House Ethics Manual says.<br /><br />Fellow South Carolinian, Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, whom Mace primaried unsuccessfully in 2014, was reprimanded by the Senate Select Committee on Ethics for a similar violation earlier this year.<br /><br />Graham conducted a cable news interview on Nov. 30 of last year and attempted to solicit donations for Georgia GOP Senate contender Herschel Walker while in the Dirksen Senate Office Building.<br /><br />Mace was one of eight House Republicans who championed a motion to depose McCarthy Tuesday.<br /><br />She faulted him for failing to bring up her legislation on “women’s issues” and accused him of lying.<br /><br />McCarthy disputed those assertions and claimed that one of her staffers privately confided to him that the California lawmaker didn’t break any of his promises.<br /><br />The former speaker, who became the first in US history to be ousted via a motion to vacate the chair, fundraised for Mace in the past.<br /><br />She faced a contentious 2022 midterm primary from Trump-aligned Katie Arrington who bashed her ties to the so-called establishment.<br /><br />But now that Mace is dancing on McCarthy’s political grave, many House Republicans are livid.<br /><br />“This is what it’s about,” Rep. Garret Graves (R-La.) angrily told CBS while pointing to his phone showing a fundraising effort. “It’s about raising campaign contributions.”<br /><br />“I think [it] should be illegal — I think it’s disgusting and some of the swampiest behavior you can have.<br /><br />Graves’ ire was particularly directed at Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) who led the effort to subdue McCarthy. He passionately slammed the fundraising activity on the House floor Tuesday.<br /><br />But Mace was shameless about her fundraising, posting requests to social media and stressing that the “establishment” was out for vengeance against her.<br /><br />The Post contacted a Mace spokesperson for comment.<br /><br />The Post contacted a Mace spokes
