Jason-Lee immediately blamed RACISM (of course!):

"Jackson Lee said Simon, who is white, confronted a black flight attendant about the perceived slight.

The congresswoman suggested that her grievance may have something to do with the fact that she is an African American."

Apparently old Sheila's done this before and the airline was terrified that she's throw a fit.

“No. Stewardess, I don’t care if it’s the Queen Mum, I’m not giving up my seat. Deal with it.”

The airlines claims the teacher canceled her flight - she vehemently denies this.

Side note: kinda feel for the guy sitting next to SJL, that’s a lot of bat-shit crazy to be cooped up next to.

I cannot accept that Sheila Jackson Lee is from the same planet as me.

Well, sure she canceled her flight. The “adjusted” computer records will certainly show that.

It’s racism for her to demand the seat of a white woman. Plus, since taxpayers pay her she works for us. BTW, what’s this flying first class anyway?

Houston Blacks are so ignorant that they keep disgracing the state of Texas by re-electing this disgusting carpet bagger from NY to represent them…that, and voter fraud, of course.

My first thought is how a “school” teacher can afford a first class airline seat?

Are taxpayers really paying such enormous bloated salaries these days? I know the answer.

Cultural appropriation— white people invented flying.

The peasant who was bumped is a teacher in the DC school system.

Obviously she must be a liberal.

I wonder if this changes her opinion of her fellow liberals?

Doesn't she know Congresswoman Jackson Lee is a special entitled person and deserves first class accommodations.

BTW, shouldn't Lee change her last name, doesn't make her a racist...?

should be easy enough to prove otherwise. If the teacher purchased the ticket and has proof of payment it would prove to be a real issue. I am willing to bet that the congress critter pulls this crap all the time.

Why is a school teacher in a FIRST CLASS seat? Probably explains why my property taxes are so damn high here.

Yeah, we’ve got carpet-bagger Maxine Waters, of St. Louis - “representing” California.
