House Democrat Slams Her Staff in Leaked Audio

October 22, 2023 · 4:53 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) went on a profane rant against members of her staff after an audio recording of her alleged tirade hit the Internet.

Said Lee: “I don’t want you to do a goddamn thing. I want you to have a fucking brain. I want you to have read it. I want you to say ‘Congresswoman, with such and such date.’ That’s what I want. That’s the kind of staff that I want to have.”

She continued: “So some stupid other motherfucker did it. And, and I don’t have the information. Nobody sent me the information. I need to ensure schedule and, uh, you know, if Boo Boo did it, shitass did it, fuckface did it. And nobody knows a goddamn thing in my office! Okay? Nothing!”
