Rep. Nancy Mace scrutinized a transgender activist during a House Oversight subcommittee hearing over previous violent online statements the activist made against conservative Supreme Court justices.

The Oversight Committee’s Civil Rights and Civil Liberties panel convened for part 7 in a series this Congress to listen to witnesses in a hearing titled “Confronting White Supremacy: The Evolution of Anti-Democratic Extremist Groups and the Ongoing Threat to Democracy.”

Ms. Mace, South Carolina Republican, questioned the five witnesses and at one point singled out Alejandra Caraballo, a transgender woman who is a clinical instructor at Harvard Law School’s Cyberlaw Clinic.
