  I thought it was the ol Susan Collins move
context: The rules package passed. Rep Gonzales was the only R against it. >
  
  Also... Mace makes me really uncomfortable. Like the redhead neighbor in Edward Scissorhands >
  
  I went to college with Mace. She was certainly on track for politics thanks to her dad’s connections. There’s a reason he was fragged. >
  
  I thought fragged meant getting killed by friendly fire? >
  
  It was always explained to me as intentional friendly fire, fatal or not >
  
  Oh okay makes sense! I had no idea her dad was fragged, heard he was a decorated Citadel vet and all that jazz though. Thank you >
  
  And during our freshman year, the general was made the commandant of cadets at The Citadel. Make of that what you will. >
  
  What in the wide world of sports are you two talking about? >
  
  Nancy Mace went to The Citadel, the military college of SC. At the time it was an all male school. The previous year Shannon Faulkner enrolled, showed, and dropped out within a week or two after a lengthy court battle against the school for not admitting females. The year after that, my freshman year, Mace and three other women enrolled. During my freshman year, Mace’s dad, General Mace was brought in as the Commandant of Cadets. Apparently when she enrolled, she actually came in as an academic sophomore, so she could be “the first female to graduate from The Citadel”. For what that’s worth, it did cause a lot of butt hurt for some of the good ol’ boy network, so that was nice. >
  
  Too bad that “glass ceiling” was really just a polycarbonate skylight in an RV washroom. >
  
  Outdated info.
  House Republicans on Monday approved a rules package for the 118th Congress >
  
  And Mace voted for it, because she has no morals or backbone. >
  
  She got her secret deal after all. >
  
  She was never going to vote against the rules package. Look at her voting history, she is a super reliable R vote who likes to go on TV and pretend to be reasonable. >
  
  The old Tulsi Gabbard special. An attractive, telegenic Rep who goes to the media and pretends to be one thing (in Tulsi's case, progressive in 2016) while actually being another.
