Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-Fla.) is calling for an apology from White House chief of staff John Kelly for "character assassination."
“Not only does he owe me an apology, but he owes an apology to the American people,” Wilson said during an appearance Sunday on MSNBC’s “AM Joy," according to The Washington Post.
She also referred to Kelly as a "puppet of the president."
The Florida Democrat called the deaths of four U.S. soldiers in Niger a "catastrophe."
ADVERTISEMENT "We had four soldiers who died. They have been buried," she said. "And we need to know why, and we need to know about the special circumstances surrounding [U.S. Army Sgt.] La David Johnson.”
The comments come amid an ongoing feud between Wilson and President Trump.
Wilson last week said she overheard a conversation between Trump and Johnson's widow. During that call, Wilson said Trump told the widow that Johnson "knew what he was getting into."
Trump denied the claim and has since taken to Twitter to blast the Democratic lawmaker as "wacky" and the "gift that keeps on giving" for the GOP.
Kelly last week gave an emotional press conference during which he railed against Wilson for sharing the contents of the call.
He said he was "stunned" that a member of Congress "would have listened in on that conversation."
"I would have thought that was sacred," he said.

“If only she had character to assassinate.”
Well she is an ass.
Oh FGS, enough already, you lunatic freak!
“I’m sorry you’re an empty barrel ma’am.”
FU girlfriend.
Wilson/Watters in 2020!
God Bless her cotton pickin heart.
Hey stupid! They died because they are working in a war zone, helping the government of Niger stand up a security force to fight Boko Haram. That operation was started by Obama.
It’s not a catastrophe, but something to be expected. In WW II, there were rifle companies that suffered 100 percent casualties, then their replacements suffered 100% casualties. All their families got was a telegram.
Anybody got a supply of old, rusty, barrels they can have delivered to her office? She is making enough noise for a whole truckload of them.
That’s exactly what I said to my husband!
She is a cartoon character with a mouth like a worn-out leather suitcase.
What a ticket, “Hate Whitey, vote for us!”
Fame has a price
That’s the ticket!!!
Yeah, sure. We'll get right on it. Right after we find out about BENGHAZI!!!!
