“My first question is who bribed Hunter Biden to be here today? That’s my first question,” Mace said.
“Second question, you are the epitome of white privilege. Coming into the Oversight Committee, spitting in our face, ignoring a Congressional subpoena to be deposed. What are you afraid of?”
“You have no balls to come up here.”
“I think that Hunter Biden should be arrested right here right now and go straight to jail,” Mace said later.
“Our nation is founded on the rule of law and the premise that the law applies equally to everyone no matter what your last name is,” she said before being cut off.
“Are we gonna continue on with this blatant interruption? This is absurd and inappropriate,” Rep. Andy Biggs said.
“I intend to give my statement. I don’t intend to have anybody interrupt it. I’m not gonna interrupt your statements. I think you should have decorum and courtesy and don’t act like a bunch of nimrods.”

“It does not matter who you are, where you come from or who your father is or your last name. Yes, I’m looking at you Hunter Biden as I’m speaking to you: you are not above the law at all,” Mace later said.
“You [broke the law] so flagrantly, you showed up on the Hill on the Senate side the day of that congressional subpoena to defy it and spit in the face of this committee. That’s what you did.”
“The question the American people are asking us is, what is Hunter Biden so afraid of? Why can’t you show up for a Congressional deposition? You’re here for a political stunt.”
“This is just a PR stunt to you, this is just a game you are playing with the American people. You’re playing with the truth.”
“You play stupid games, you win stupid prizes.”
“I just can get over the gentlelady from South Carolina talking about white privilege,” Rep. Jasmine Crockett said online.
“It was a spit in the face, at least of mine as a black woman, for you to talk about what white privilege looks like, especially from that side of the aisle,” she said.
“So let me tell you something. Y’all don’t know what white privilege looks like,” she added.
Mace shot back at Crockett, saying she takes “great pride as a white female Republican to address the inadequacies in our country.”
Mace pointed out that inside of her district, “rich and poor is literally black and white, black versus white on most days.”
The exchange highlighted tensions and differing perspectives within the committee.
