Nancy Mace of South Carolina escalated her feud with Rep.

The article notes Mills is under scrutiny by the House Ethics Committee, which has formed an Investigative Subcommittee to examine potential violations of the Code of Official Conduct, including campaign-finance questions tied to his 2022 and 2024 campaigns, and also allegations of sexual misconduct and domestic violence. A former beauty-pageant contestant, Lindsey Langston, accused Mills of threatening to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/obama-branded-ecstasy-pills-revealed-in-diddy-trial-testimony\/\" title=\"Obama-Branded Ecstasy Pills Revealed in Diddy Trial Testimony\">release compromising videos<\/a> after their breakup and obtained a protective order.
