Sept. 28, 2016: Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee speaks at a House Judiciary Committee hearing. (CSPAN)
Wearing a candidate's campaign pin is hardly out of the ordinary this election season. But doing it while conducting congressional oversight at a hearing where that candidate's conduct is front-and-center -- that's another matter.
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, raised eyebrows Wednesday when she showed up wearing a gold Hillary Clinton campaign pin to a House Judiciary Committee hearing dealing with the FBI probe regarding Clinton’s private email server.
The committee heard testimony from FBI Director James Comey on the agency’s decision not to pursue charges and a newly revealed set of controversial immunity deals given to Clinton’s staff.
Jackson Lee asked Comey questions while wearing the "H" campaign pin -- though the exchange left no doubt as to her leanings on the matter.
"[Republicans] want you to prosecute, or ask the DOJ to prosecute, Secretary Clinton regardless of the facts. So they’ve engaged in an almost daily ritual of holding hearings, desperately trying to tear down the investigation," she told Comey.
The House has guidelines restricting certain forms of campaign-related activity, but there is no apparent ban on wearing pins. However, while it is not unusual in the slightest for representatives to express their political beliefs on Capitol Hill, wearing campaign paraphernalia during an oversight hearing is more of a rarity.

You nailed it! LOL!
Then pass those jerseys out to everyone who went out to dinner together after the trial.
It’s a message to Comey. Shut up or die.
When I think of one of them, I always think of the other...too.
Wyatt Earp: From now on I see a red sash, I kill the man wearing it. So run you cur. And tell the other curs the law is coming. You tell ’em I’m coming! And Hell’s coming with me you hear! Hell’s coming with me!
She is a suppurating pilonidal cyst!
I think it’s more of a ‘troubled personality’ issue. This is old, but things don’t seem to have changed:

Not only does she hold the coveted democrat triple award [stupid, dumb and ugly] but I’d bet she hasn’t washed that head of hair since it got wound up like that. Probably full of gnats...
It’s ok. Someone told her it was the same pin Neil Armstrong wore on the moon.
You are talking about someone who demanded a copy of the photo of the American flag our astronauts placed on Mars.
She must also remove a mitten to count to three.
Right at the sacral simple.
Dimple.
Who elects these losers like her? Can’t people rise above the level of pond scum?
SJL....a pile if *hit with a AA battery
LOL! That's an insult to dog S#!t!
She makes the late Rodney King look intelligent.
I say dog s#!t because it really doesn’t have any uses. It doesn’t even make good fertilizer.
A box of rocks actually is useful, as projectiles, or agregate in concrete. Dog s#!t has no uses.
I’d kinda like to see Gowdy wear a “Hillary for prison 2016” pin at the next hearing.
She is a racist affirmative action a##clown
