tl;drSUMMARY ACROSS OUTLETS

Outlets agree that after Ali Khamenei's death was reported, Mace posted a message about Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, Omar responded, and the lawmakers exchanged personal remarks on social media.

Left-leaning outlets cast Mace's posts as hostile and foreground Omar's rebuke, with some also stressing Mace's later comments about Omar's marriage and deportation. Center outlets treat it as a two-sided social-media feud, recounting personal attacks from both lawmakers. Right-leaning outlets emphasize the combative exchange, with some portraying Mace favorably and Omar as angry or incoherent.
