No comment. But, I do know, hell has gained a new resident.

She likely took graft, so did most of the republicans that we give best wishes to after they pass.

There’s been worse than her....maybe not less smart, but worse :)

The world hasn’t lost Einsterin but her family will still hurt and miss her just the same.

RIP and prayers to the family.

I wont be nearly as kind when Pelosi passes, unless she has sold her soul to the devil already to live to 150 :)

She ran for Houston mayor. Lost. Then filed papers to run for TX18 again.

I remember walking on a DC side walk with an iranian or iraqi friend (Nofel?) and running int SJL. I think i have this on video.

Arrogant doesn’t begin to describe her.

We all have to go. My Mom always said if you have nothing nice to say about a person, say nothing at all.

In 2011, Jackson Lee was reported to have one of the highest staff turnover rates in Congress. The Huffington Post and the Houston Chronicle reported that she had gone through 11 chiefs of staff in the course of 11 years.[24][25] A 2013 report concluded that “the veteran Texas Democrat had the highest turnover rate for all of Congress over the [previous] decade.”[26] Washingtonian magazine named Jackson Lee as the “meanest Democratic Congress member” in both 2014 and 2017.[27] In 2018, LegiStorm reported that Jackson Lee’s annual turnover rate, at 62%, was the highest in Congress.[28]

In 2023, during her Houston mayoral run, an unverified[29] audio leaked of Jackson Lee berating her staffers with profanity. The recording was about a minute and half in length, where Jackson Lee allegedly tells a staffer she wants him to have a “fuckin’ brain” and that “nobody knows a Goddamn thing in my office — nothing.” She then describes a different staffer as a “fat-ass stupid idiot” and that both of them are “fuck-ups” and that they are “two Goddamn big-ass children, fuckin’ idiots who serve no Goddamn purpose.

I had to look at wiki to convince myself that you weren’t taken in by the Bee.

Yale ‘72, which means she matriculated in ‘68, which means that she entered high school in ‘64.

Calhoun entered in 1802 and graduated in 1804. I wonder how the class matriculating in 1968 compared with the class entering in 1802, and those graduating in 1804 compared with those graduating in 1972.

I also wonder if there is a circle in purgatory dedicated to Yale graduates, and if after spending a bit of time with Jackson, Calhoun will be done with purgatory.

Jackson might be able to get Calhoun out of purgatory. There is something nice about her.

House fell on her? She was forming a crowd around someone she shouldn’t have? Seupuku after the Republican National Convention? Hair-piece attacked her?

She’s a Rep from Texas. Whom will the Republican Governor of Texas appoint in the interim until there can be a special election? Hmmmmmm...hmmmm...I wonder what party they’ll belong to.

Oh. Sorry SJL croaked, but not very.
