Man who says Rep. Nancy Mace lied about his sex crime involvement sues her for libel
A LAWSUIT can make all the **** IDIOTIC CLAIMS it wants. The Speech and Debate clause HAS BEEN RULED AS ABSOLUTE by the SCOTUS, DICKSUCKER!!

AND as a FYI, her SPEECH was in regard to LEGISLATION being considered and her FLOOR SPEECH is protected, SUKM!! 

Article I, Section 6, Clause 1:
 The Senators and Representatives shall receive a Compensation for their Services, to be ascertained by Law, and paid out of the Treasury of the United States. They shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.

 The Supreme Court has described the Speech or Debate Clause as a provision that cannot be interpreted literally,1 but instead must be construed broadly in order to effectuate the Clause’s vital role in the constitutional separation of powers.2 Deceptively simple3 phrases—such as shall not be questioned, Speech or Debate, and even Senators and Representatives—have therefore been accorded meanings that extend well beyond their literal constructions.4 Arguably, this purpose-driven interpretive approach has given rise to some ambiguity in the precise scope of the protections afforded by the Clause. Despite uncertainty at the margins, it is well established that the Clause serves to secure the independence of the federal legislature by providing Members of Congress and their aides with immunity from criminal prosecutions or civil suits that stem from acts taken within the legislative sphere.5 As succinctly described by the Court, the Clause’s immunity from liability applies even though their conduct, if performed in other than legislative contexts, would in itself be unconstitutional or otherwise contrary to criminal or civil statutes.6 This general immunity principle forms the core of the protections afforded by the Clause.

 
 
 
Liberals are spoiled children, miserable, unsatisfied, demanding, ill-disciplined, despotic & useless. Liberalism is a philosophy of sniveling brats ~O'Rourke

The Democratic Party seems intransigent on their position of keeping the party ‘woke,’ detached, exclusionary, and totally insane.
