Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., and Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, got into a heated argument during a House hearing on Tuesday that ended with Mace Challenge Crockett, asking if she wants to "take it outside."

The war of words erupted during a discussion of civil and transgender rights, with Crockett calling for the re-establishment of the civil rights subcommittee and criticizing Mace's remarks about transgender people.

"I can see someone's campaign coffers really struggling right now. So (Mays) is going to keep saying 'trans, trans, trans, trans' so people feel threatened, kid, listen ——" said Crockett.

"I'm not a child, don't call me a child, I'm not a child," Mace interjected, prompting committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., to unsuccessfully call for order.

"If you want to take it outside, we can do that," Mays told Crockett.

Rep. Maxwell Frost, D-Fla., tried to defend Crockett, saying Mace incited the violence against her.

After some discussion, Cuomo ruled that Mays' comments were not a call for violence and said she may have been asking Crockett to go out "for a coffee or a beer."

Spokespeople for Mays and Crockett did not immediately respond to requests for comment Tuesday night.

However, the two resorted to X to defend themselves.

Mays posted about the incident more than a dozen times, admitting she "got mad" at Crockett but saying her calling out didn't mean she wanted a fight.

"Let me be clear: I wanted to get the conversation off the ground and into a more constructive dialogue, not an argument. There was no intention of causing harm to anyone at any time," she wrote in a post.

Crockett said on the X show that she had been threatened and called Mays "an attention-seeking loser."

"Last I checked, threatening members in committee rooms doesn't exactly reduce the cost of eggs," she wrote.

In recent months, Mace has become known for his behavior toward transgender people. After the election of Democratic Rep. Sarah McBride, the first openly transgender member of Congress. Mace has introduced a measure that would ban transgender women from the women's restrooms on Capitol Hill. Mace later said the resolution was "absolutely" targeted at McBride, and she has since visited her district to discuss the measure with the state's Republican Party.

The House Oversight Committee room where Tuesday's exchange took place was also the site of a meeting last year that descended into chaos with personal insults. In May, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., responded to Crockett’s question by saying, “I think your false eyelashes are messing up what you’re reading,” and then The hearing broke out.

When Cuomo ruled that Greene's comments did not violate the committee's rules, Crockett asked: "I'm just curious, just to better understand your ruling. If someone on this committee starts talking about someone's blond hair, blue eyes, , A bad male figure is not considered charming, right?”
