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.

Say what you will, but Guam NEVER tipped over after Hank Johnson pointed out the risks.
Who knows how many lives he may have saved?
I'm convinced that the KKK is still out there even though we rarely see them anymore. But they don't ride around in the dark looking for unfortunate black people to assault these days.
Instead they just sit in front of their TV's eating popcorn. Every time a news story about some black guy being murdered by another black guy comes on somebody yells "SELF LYNCHING!" and everybody downs a brewski. Sad in a way.
Frederica Wilson is the Paul Wellstone Funerally 2017.
Please, Demon Rats, keep this joker in the public eye. She is REALLY REALLY helping your cause.

Great post - my sentiments from my first view of her - elected off the streets into Congress but kept true to her profession.
I demand Wilson stop appropriating cowboy culture.
