Representative Sheila Jackson Lee passed away after fighting pancreatic cancer

| July 20, 2024

Representative Shiela Jackson Lee passed away after battling pancreatic cancer. She was 74. Jackson represented Texas’ 18th congressional district, serving as their representative for nearly three decades. This was not her first experience with cancer, having been diagnosed with breast cancer back in 2011. She announced in 2012 that she was free from that cancer. Her previous government positions included being a judge and also an at-large Houston councilmember.

From Fox News:

She previously battled breast cancer, having been diagnosed in 2011, before announcing the following year she was cancer free.

“A local, national, and international humanitarian, she was acknowledged worldwide for her courageous fights for racial justice, criminal justice, and human rights, with a special emphasis on women and children,” her office said.

Prior to her time in Congress, Jackson Lee served as a judge before she was elected to an at-large Houston City Council seat in 1989.

Last year, she ran an unsuccessful campaign for Houston mayor, losing by a wide margin to then-state Sen. John Whitmire, also a Democrat, before announcing she would seek re-election in Congress.

“Her legislative victories impacted millions, from establishing the Juneteenth Federal Holiday to reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act,” her office stated.

“However, she impacted us most as our beloved wife, sister, mother, and Bebe (grandmother),” the statement continued. “She will be dearly missed, but her legacy will continue to inspire all who believe in freedom, justice, and democracy. God bless you Congresswoman and God bless the United States of America.”

In the words of Bette Davis: I was taught that you shouldn’t speak of the dead unless you have something good to say. Therefore, I will only say this, ‘She’s dead at last, good!’

Texas breathes a sigh of relief.

As a whole, probably true.. but her district was the morons that kept reelecting her, soooo….

Deckie

Never speak ill of the dead, so…

Good for her!

Oh, bless her heart!

May she find the reward that she so richly deserves…and saves a spot for Hitlery.

Along with “Hanoi Jane” Fonda!

“Her legislative victories impacted millions,”.. That part is true… It surely wasn’t a POSITIVE impact, but it was an impact…

I’m imagining her reception at the pearly gates is a bit…. “warmer”… that she’d hoped for… But who know, even the worst can repent at the last moment and be saved.

Now do Maxine Waters.
(What this isn’t a wish list?!?) Hey after reading everybody for a week scream about oh too bad he missed. Oh, somebody should’ve taken shooting lessons. Fuck all you all. It’s fair game.

ChipNASA,
The END of Tenacious D.
Tour cancelled by Jack Black.
Recording plans cancelled by Jack Black.

And now worse

Kyle Gass has DELETED his recent online apology.

He has sown that, now he can weep while he reaps.
Fuck. Him.

Remember, when the left calls for violence it’s mostly peaceful, editorial expression, jokes and performance art. Any other interpretation is racist by white supremacy Nazis intent on destroying democracy.

I believe Australian fans had had enough. The show they were doing the next day I believe, they were told, by Australian concert venue, no thanks, we’re canceling your show.

Many thanks to our Australian friends we’ve never met.

I did not like the lady and disagree strongly with her positions. That said, I pray for comfort for her family. I grieve for her soul.

Not from Tombstone, but attributed to Clarence Darrow, “I have never killed anyone, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure.”

Maybe now at long last they can pass the Sabkik Sheikh Firearm Registration Act which was considered one of the best things that she never did. That way when a 17-year-old steals his father’s firearms so that he can go do a school shooting they can arrest him for that too, I mean again. It will be doubly illegal. On top of that, if he had wanted to use a bullet larger than 50 caliber, which he didn’t, He wouldn’t have been able to do that either. Since the law would require that all firearms in the United States be registered and accounted for at all times, nobody would ever be able to commit a crime ever again.

DRUGS have been outlawed and look at the success that’s had, but tell that to any liberal and …

Murder’s been illegal for ages, too– hasn’t stopped those so inclined much.

Just look at the legacy she has left behind. BEFORE she got elected, there were many in her district in poverty and today they still are. Many places in it looked like third world hellholes, and they still do. Just how many of her constituents has she really helped get off of Government Dependence versus how many kept there during her time in Office?
SO MANY in her district went without while she lived in the lap of luxury.

If you get anywhere with a stripper, you didn’t meet her at the club and don’t bug her about it. Just sayin’.

Wilson

A lot of delusional PFC’s should have listened to their squadmates, squad leaders, and senior NCO leadership on this point.

Bubblehead Ray

Took care of a “dancer” in the ER a few years ago. I asked her what she did for a living and she said “I’m a wallet inspector”. Truest description of that job I ever heard😂😂

Sorry she died, can’t say I’ll miss her.

Lost my mom to panreatic cancer.
She was no Sheila Jackson Lee.

Fyrfighter

And that’s a DAMN good thing!

e.

I’m sorry for your great loss. My brother in law, too, will be missed. Fukk cancer!

Major Tuddy

Rest in peace, ma’am. 🫡🇺🇸

Seriously, those of you gloating at a death because of politics…you should be ashamed.

The downvotes on this post reveal how many ghouls post here. Do better.

SgtM

Do some research on her, she was not a good person. Besides that, that type of cancer is a bad way to go.

KoB

I don’t think that the “gloating” as you put it is because of her politics, MT. As anyone that has been keeping up, and as pointed out by SgtM, she WAS NOT a good person. She had a self centered life, taking full advantage of her position to advance herself on the backs of taxpayers. A lot longer than any of the children that she advocated to be aborted. Is dying at age 74 by pancreatic cancer more horrible than dying by being ripped apart piece by piece in the birth canal? Get over yourself…nobody gets out alive. Yeah, I’ll be a ghoul here…”rest in pieces, ma’am”. FIFY A certain Book states “Vengeance is mine…”. That same Book states “…works in mysterious ways, His Wonders to behold…” I wonder if the mysterious way will be holding a jury of murdered babies’ souls at ready to Judge her to an eternity of damnation. Keep in mind that The Real “Big Guy”‘s Son talked about all that forgiveness of sin and such, but also stated “…suffer the little children to come unto me…”. His Son was also prone to get pissed off when people didn’t do right. He would start turning over furniture, pick up a whip, and start chasing people.

Her stance on murdering defenseless children was just one (1) of the things that I found despicable about her.

A Proud Infidel®™

She was also one of the left’s loyal minions on Open Borders and look at how many have been murdered by the ILLEGAL ALIENS she was in favor of letting in!

Odie

Lucky for her, Governor Abbott was shipping them out so they never really impacted her or her constituents.

She could kinda say, with varying degrees of truth… immigration problem? I see no immigration problem in my district.

Odie

As has been said by others, if you got nothing good to say about her, say nothing. With that said, I will say ……

Ghoul Power!

A downvote from me. I will neither celebrate her death nor mourn her passing. She was an awful human being and deserves no recognition of any kind. Now, you have yourself a fine Army day.

It’s funny to me how the leftist democrats always ACT like they are morally superior and taking the moral high ground, but just stand back and watch and listen to what they are really saying.

They like using their buzz words like fascist, nazi, racist and white-supremacist, but are completely historically deficient in either not knowing or worse, ignoring the FACT that the fascist, racist nazi party, was the liberal party in Germany at that time.

Mrs. Lee, was one of those that I speak about. (Ooops, I just assumed her gender!🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️)

Hack Stone

She will be missed. As a member of the House Science Committee, it is only appropriate to place her ashes next to the American flag that Neil Armstrong planted on Mars.

I’d-ruther see her ashes get dumped down a privy, like what Jane Fonda is deserving of!

Thanks for the reminders Hack. I had forgotten most of her mental retardations.

Don’t be silly, she said she was a queen and deserved to be treated like one. Therefore she should be interred in the royal vault.

Forest Bondurant

Her casket will weigh as much as 10 moving boxes…

ZINGER!

Can somebody send me a link where I can get the AR fifteens at fire 50 caliber bullets?!?
BMG!!?

Fyrfighter

Weird, it’s just an upper, but they have to ship to FFL?

SydneyBroadshead

They cremated her, then buried her in 10 very heavy one-pound boxes. This means she weighed more than an AR15.

Bubblehead Ray

Prayers for her family

Hopefully the people of Houston get presented with better choices in the future.
