Mace on Pronouns: 'We Will NOT Be Putting Pronouns in Our Bio or Email Signature'

On Nov. 6 at 12:30 p.m. ET, Rep. Nancy Mace posted on X: 'For the record: we will NOT be putting pronouns in our bio or email signature.' Replies pointed out that 'we' is a pronoun. The Larry the Cat account wrote 'Cat check: We is a pronoun.' A user named greg circled the 'US' in her bio and wrote that 'us' is a pronoun. The next morning Mace answered him: 'Not to be that girl, Greg, but US is a country. You can tell because it has a flag. Three of them, actually.' Here are the posts, with the capture details and the record.

Saturday, November 7, 2026.

Rep. Nancy Mace posted on X on Nov. 6 that "we will NOT be putting pronouns in our bio or email signature." Replies noted that "we" is a pronoun. She answered one of them the next morning. Here is each post, in order, with what the record shows.

Source: Mace's post on X, @RepNancyMace, Nov. 6, 2026, 12:30 p.m. ET. We read it and the replies on X on Nov. 7 at about 2:30 p.m. ET. The story was also covered by indy100 on Nov. 7.

The post

At 12:30 p.m. ET on Friday, Nov. 6, from her official account:

For the record: we will NOT be putting pronouns in our bio or email signature.

When we read it, X showed about 4.1 million views, 14K likes, 2.2K reposts and 8.6K replies. At 7:29 a.m. ET on Saturday, Nov. 7, her personal account, @NancyMace, posted the same sentence.

indy100 reports the post followed a joke by critics of President Trump about pronouns going back into email signatures after the midterms. indy100 ties the joke to an executive order Trump signed last year on the subject. We did not find the original joke.

What people replied

  • Larry the Cat (@Number10cat), 2:25 p.m. ET: "Cat check: We is a pronoun." indy100 describes the account as a parody account. It had about 25K likes when we read it.
  • greg (@greg16676935420), 3:27 p.m. ET, quoting her post with a screenshot of her X bio: "Not to be that guy @RepNancyMace but 'us' is a pronoun." He circled the word "US" in her bio, which reads "From Waffle House, The Citadel, US House."
  • Other replies pointed out that she will not have a congressional email address after January, since she leaves the House then. indy100 quotes artist Akilah Hughes ("What email you don't have a job") and commentator Alex Cole ("Nancy, you got voted out. You won't have a congressional email signature to worry about anymore"). We did not capture those two posts ourselves.

Her answer

At 7:46 a.m. ET on Saturday, from @NancyMace, replying to greg (post):

Not to be that girl, Greg, but "US" is a country. You can tell because it has a flag. Three of them, actually.

In her bio line, "US House" is the abbreviation for the United States House of Representatives. The word "we" in her own post is a pronoun, as the replies above said.

The record

  • Her earlier posts on pronouns. Nov. 22, 2024, replying to a user: "Pronouns in your bio. Next." (post). Nov. 15, 2024: "First AOC took the pronouns out of her bio and now this?!" (post). Oct. 16, 2025: "As Governor, I will protect our kids from the Left's disgusting agenda and ban the use of 'pronouns' in classrooms." (post).
  • Her seat. She ran for governor instead of re-election, finished fifth in the June 9 Republican primary, and her House term ends Jan. 3. The Democrats won her seat, per indy100, which quotes her telling Piers Morgan that week: "I just found out we're losing my seat."
