Shortly after a heated exchange between Reps. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) and Nancy Mace (R-SC) during a House committee meeting earlier this week, the Texas Democrat said she received a creepy phone call from a Republican staffer that seemingly doubled down on Mace’s threats of “violence.

The Republican representative asked Crockett if she wanted to take their argument "outside." Experts have a lot to say about what might be behind the exchange.

The heated exchange between state representatives took place during a discussion of civil rights and transgender rights at a House Oversight Committee meeting.
