"Houston Mayoral Candidate Sheila Jackson Lee Faces Backlash for Profanity-Laced Tirade at Staff"

Sheila Jackson Lee, a Democratic congresswoman and Hillary Clinton-endorsed candidate for Houston mayor, was caught on audio berating one of her staff members in a profanity-laced tirade. Known for her reputation as one of the "meanest" members of Congress, Jackson Lee has represented her Houston district for over 28 years. In the audio, she criticized the staff member for mishandling calendar events and used derogatory language to insult his competence. This is not the first time Jackson Lee has faced criticism for mistreating her staff, as she has been accused of using demeaning language and forcing long hours.
