Jackson Lee, a Hillary Clinton-endorsed congresswoman who built a reputation in Washington as being one of the 'meanest' members of Congress, has represented the same Houston, Texas district in the House of Representatives for over 28 years.
D-Texas, was recently heard on recorded audio going off on one of her staff members in a profanity-laced tirade in which she said he and another staff member had no brains and are "f- -k-ups."
The man answered by telling the representative he gave the piece of paper to Jerome, who took it upstairs. The staff member then tells Jackson Lee he has to call Jerome, before being cut off. Jackson Lee continued to spew profanity at the staffer as she berated him over how she expects her staff members to handle calendar events, especially those from Ovide Duncantell, founder of the Black Heritage Society, Inc.
"Nobody’s respecting him, nobody gives a about what you’re doing. And you ain’t doing . And this is an example of it. I gave it to Jerome. This is not child’s work, ok," Jackson Lee said.This is not the first time Jackson Lee has gone off on staff members. In fact, in 2011, a Daily Caller report cited a number of former staff members as saying she used demeaning language and name-calling when addressing them.
