Watch: Nancy Mace reaches DC to vote for 'Big, beautiful bill' in pink pajamas, says her flights were cancelled

Time of Indiaa day ago
Nancy Mace reaches DC in her pink PJs to vote for Trump's spending bill after her flights were canceled.
Rep Nancy Mace (R-SC) did not want to miss the crucial vote for Donald Trump's 'Big, beautiful bill' and so started on a road trip in her pink pajamas when she found out that her flights had been canceled.
Nancy blogged on her way and bombarded her social media with her videos. "Come hell or high water, we were showing up to vote on the Big, Beautiful Bill today," Nancy wrote.
In one clip shared on X, she wears her pajamas to a Wawa convenience store as AC/DC's 1979 tune 'Highway to Hell' blasts in the background. 'If D.C. had a theme song …,' she captioned the post.
'From one Waffle House waitress to another, thank you for showing up, working hard, and keeping the coffee hot,' she captioned the post.
'We haven't forgotten where we came from. On to DC to vote for the Big, Beautiful Bill.'

Social media users were not impressed with her vlogging as users said that it was only an 8-hour drive from Charleston to DC but she made it look like a massive trek.
'What's wrong with this woman? What's with these videos where she's on pajamas etc? Who's doing her [social media]? This is unhinged and undignified for a congresswoman,' one wrote.

'Nancy Mace had her flight canceled to DC so she rented a luxury van with a driver, put on her jammies and then had a poor staffer film her all the way there for social media clout,' another wrote. 'All paid for with taxpayer money. Gross.'
"Nancy Mace Needs Psychological Help," one wrote.
Latest on Trump's Big, Beautiful bill:
Hakeem Jeffries
speaking for over 4 hours
Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has been speaking on the floor for more than four hours during his 'magic minute,' an unlimited period of speaking time allotted to party leaders.
Dozens of House members are on the floor, with some circulating in and out. There are more Democrats than Republicans, but the chamber is nowhere near full, CNN reported Thursday morning.
Vice president JD Vance posted that he received a message from a GOP Congressman who said he was undecided on the bill but after Hakeen Jeffries' performance, he is certain. "GOP Congressman just texted me: 'I was undecided on the bill but then I watched Hakeem Jeffries performance and now I'm a firm yes'."

CM: Won't tolerate hooliganism in the name of Marathi

Mumbai: Hooliganism under the guise of Marathi pride will not be tolerated in the state, CM Fadnavis warned on Friday. He said police had registered an FIR and taken action in the Mira Road incident where a businessman was beaten up by MNS workers for not knowing Marathi. Speaking to the media, Fadnavis said beating up someone over language was wrong. "We are Marathi and are proud of the language. Insisting that a person speak in Marathi is not wrong, but beating up a businessman because he does not know it is wrong. Our Marathi-speaking people are doing business in different states, and if they do not know the local language, should they get similar treatment? Such behaviour and hooliganism are not correct. Action will be taken against such violent behaviour," he said. CM Devendra Fadnavis said on Friday, "We are proud of Marathi, but no injustice can be done to any other Indian language. Sometimes I am amazed they embrace English but create disputes over Hindi. What kind of thinking is this, and what kind of action is this?"

"Should businessmen not do business? If a Marathi-speaking businessman goes to Assam and does business there and takes time to learn Assamese, should he be meted out similar treatment? Should the people of Assam beat him up? If you genuinely take pride in Marathi, then serve the language, start classes to teach Marathi, teach your children Marathi. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Why have you set up schools where it is clearly mentioned that Marathi is the third language?" he asked. On the Thackeray cousins holding a "victory rally" over state govt's withdrawal of two GRs about Hindi being taught as a third language from Class 1, Fadnavis said they (Thackerays) seem to be happy about the decision taken by govt. "Let them hold the victory rally. The committee to make recommendations was set up by them, they put their aide on the committee, the committee recommended that Hindi and English should be made compulsory from Class 1 to 12, the recommendations were accepted by them in the cabinet, the minutes were signed by them. .. the Marathi manoos knows they are double-faced," he said. This was a reiteration of his earlier statement that Uddhav Thackery as CM had accepted the report of the Mashelkar panel recommending that Hindi be the third language from Class 1.

'Indian diaspora in Africa identifies as African because...': Woman's post supporting Zohran Mamdani goes viral

Woman's post explaining why Mamdani is not wrong to identify himself as an African went viral. Amid the controversy over New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani 's race, a woman supported Mamdani identifying himself as an African though not by blood and said the entire Indian diaspora in Africa identifies as African. "...because we are! From! Africa!" the woman, Sophia Babai, wrote on BlueSky. The woman explained that her parents are from the same diaspora as Zohran's father Mahmood Mamdani and they will always introduce themselves as African, and there is nothing wrong in it. Sophia explained that Americans don't understand the extent to which the Indian diaspora in East Africa is a separate culture in itself. She said that compared to Indians, they eat different food, follow a different branch of Islam and have a culture of their own, which is not Indian. Their language is stuffed with Swahili and they look different from Indians. Woman's post on Gujarati African diaspora in connection with Mamdani went viral Indian diaspora in Africa identify as Africans, the woman said. "It is also just incredibly funny seeing white Americans claim that Zohran can't identify as African because he isn't Black, like sir ma'am where do you think white people came from," the woman said explaining how a group called Lohana who are believed to be from Lahore ended up in Guajarat and Punjab and later converted -- tracing the roots of Mamdani's family. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo "Every Gujarati African I have ever met identifies as African first, and probably Indian second but possibly not Indian at all. Indians certainly consider us African, to a point where more traditional Indians will not intermarry with us, even if they are ethnically and religiously identical," the woman explained. The post came in reaction to a major row over Zohran Mamdani claiming himself to be African-American or Black in the application for Columbia University. Though he did not get into Columbia, the revelation that he attempted at a faulty racial identity triggered a political storm, though Mamdani said he was not aiming to gain anything but was trying to capture his diverse background as he was born in Uganda.
