Longtime Texas Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee urged her supporters to unite behind President Biden just hours before she passed away.

The 15-term Democrat passed away aged 74 on Friday following a battle with pancreatic cancer that she revealed in June.

Hours before her family revealed her passing, Jackson Lee took to X to share her support for Biden as a growing number of her congressional colleagues call for him to drop out.

'The time is now to unite behind the President and get to work beating Donald Trump — one last time,' she wrote.

Some called on Democrats to come together behind Biden for Jackson Lee's 'dying wish', urging the fractured party to 'honor her' by supporting his floundering re-election campaign.

And then, just as she was trotting forward to enter the pearly gates of heaven...

one of God's angels asked her if she was lost, because...

she didn't belong 'here'.

She now understands how small and vacuous her words, and her life, was. A self-inflicted tragedy of eternal proportion.

As conservatives that’s who we are.

I feel for Matthew Crooks parents. They will not have the normal path of mourning for their son. We don’t mourn him but they do.

What will they say when they learn they were wrong here on Earth. How many will try to wiggle their way out of it before Jesus makes his judgement. There’s no way I am going to spend ETERNITY in the lake of fire with satan or evil people.

“I have no illusions about being saintly myself..”

You aren’t alone mate...no one is. That is a given, but there are degrees which can be forgiven beyond which ...as in the subject’s case...a no go. You will be reunited with wife. Heavy stuff.

If you haven’t noticed, a lot of people here actually believe their faith.

Matthew 5:44 seems to fit especially at a time of death - the person is in God’s hands and judgment, now.

RE: I can’t wait for her next Tweet.

George Noory on Coast to Coast am hasn’t reported one so far. Maybe the Great Beyond social media went down with the internet outages yesterday.

Grim Reaper invokes Congressional Term Limits. A I can think of few select Republicans need sanctioning.

“I was always taught that if you don’t have something good to say, don’t say anything at all...”

Hell, there’d be dead silence as long as Biden/democrats are around!
