After a leftist pro-abortion activist was publicly called out by her during a Congressional hearing, Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C. celebrated with a victory lap on Twitter. 

Mace went viral this week for a heated exchange she had with activist Alejandra Caraballo, during which Mace read one of Caraballo’s tweets out loud. Caraballo was there as part of a hearing of the House Oversight Committee on links between White supremacy and anti-LGBT figures.

"If you step into my kitchen you better be able to handle the heat," Mace wrote later in a taunting tweet.

The verbal battle has been liked roughly 30,000 times on Twitter in a post by the account "Libs of TikTok" alone.

Mace, one of the few Republicans at the hearing, spoke to Caraballo on the threats posed by anti-democratic extremist groups.

She asked all the witnesses whether they consider violent rhetoric against government officials on social media to be a "threat to democracy." 

Caraballo, who goes by "@Esqueer_" on Twitter, responded in the affirmative, giving Mace an opening to display one of her incendiary tweets on a billboard.

Caraballo's tweet called for Americans to treat the Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn Roe v. Wade "pariahs." "The 6 justices who overturned Roe should never know peace again. It is our civic duty to accost them every time they are in public. They are pariahs. Since women don’t have their rights, these justices should never have a peaceful moment in public again."

Mace also shared a snowflake emoji on Wednesday showing a screenshot of Caraballo blocking her on Twitter. It was an apparent reference to calling someone a "snowflake," a common derogatory term for partisans viewed as overly sensitive or meek.

Caraballo shared another user's post in an attempt to one-up Mace in the dispute. "I'd say my rep has the maturity of an adolescent, but that would be an insult to my teenage patients who are far kinder humans than Mace will ever be. Regardless of her disagreement with Caraballo, Mace turned a testimony about LGBTQ harassment into her own pick-me Twitter spat."

During the hearing, Caraballo insisted that Mace was not giving the "correct characterization" of her tweet. Mace pointed out in return that a man was arrested in June for attempting to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh as a result of the draft opinion leak overturning Roe v. Wade.

David DePape, the accused attacker of Paul Pelosi, appeared in court on Wednesday when prosecutors played out body camera footage and the 911 call placed by the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. 

DePape was arrested Oct. 28 for allegedly attacking Paul Pelosi with a hammer inside he and the House Speaker's San Francisco, California, home. Nancy Pelosi was in Washington, D.C., at the time. 

At Wednesday’s preliminary hearing in San Francisco Superior Court, Judge Stephen Murphy will consider whether there’s enough evidence to proceed to trial. 

Local prosecutors charged DePape with attempted murder, assault with a deadly weapon and elder abuse. DePape has pleaded not guilty to state and federal charges that include allegations he sought to kidnap Nancy Pelosi. 

PELOSI ATTACK SUSPECT DAVID DEPAPE THE LATEST HIGH PROFILE CRIME INVOLVING AN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT 

In the clip of the 911 call played in court, Paul Pelosi tells the dispatcher, "There's a gentleman here waiting for my wife to come back, Nancy Pelosi." He also says he does not know the man. 

"I don’t know who he is. He’s telling me not to do anything. He’s telling me to put the phone down and do what he says," Paul Pelosi is hearing saying. Another voice chimes in, "My name’s David."

"He wants me to get off the phone," Pelosi adds, according to local reporter Natalie Hanson. 

Body-worn camera footage played in court Wednesday reportedly showed DePape striking Paul Pelosi. 

San Francisco Police Officer Kyle Cagney took the stand, describing how he and his partner took about four minutes to respond to the Pelosi residence, which they knew from a prior incident, rang the doorbell. 

The door opened quickly, and he said they saw two men holding onto the same hammer. 

About five feet from the threshold, the two men struggled as the officers asked what was going on. DePape said, "nothing," until taking control of the hammer and striking Pelosi in the head. 

Officers are also heard yelling, "drop the hammer," and DePape responded, "uh, nope." 

The officers quickly tackled DePape, and Pelosi fell to the ground, where he laid facedown and motionless, appearing to be unconscious in a pool of blood, Cagney said. 

Cagney also removed from an evidence bag what’s believed to be the hammer used in the attack. 

Interviewed while groggy at the hospital afterward, Pelosi told a sergeant that DePape called out, "Where's Nancy?" 

Before the preliminary hearing Wednesday, San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins already outlined what allegedly happened in a court filing. "Where’s Nancy? Where’s Nancy?" DePape allegedly said upon waking 82-year-old Paul Pelosi from his bed that night, according to Jenkins. 

Pelosi late told a dispatcher he didn’t know the man, but DePape answered, "I’m a friend of theirs." 

The filing says DePape later allegedly told officers and medics at the scene, "I’m sick of the insane f***ing level of lies coming out of Washington, D.C. I came here to have a little chat with his wife."

Jenkins also cited body worn camera footage from officers as part of the investigation. 

Meanwhile, an FBI affidavit submitted in the federal case cites a recorded interview with San Francisco police detectives afterward. That’s when DePape allegedly told investigators that he viewed Nancy Pelosi as the "leader of the pack" of lies told by the Democratic Party and later explained that by breaking the House Speaker’s kneecaps, she would then have to be wheeled into Congress.

The federal indictment also alleges that once DePape was restrained, officers secured a roll of tape, white rope, a second hammer, a pair of rubber and cloth gloves, and zip ties from the crime scene, where officers also observed a broken glass door to the back porch.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has since issued a detainer for DePape. He is an illegal immigrant from Canada who first entered the United States through Mexico in 2008. 

Paul Pelosi made his first public appearance after the attack on Dec. 4 when he and his wife attended the 45th Kennedy Center Honors in Washington, D.C.
