It’s not just Biden. There are members of Congress who seem mentally incapable of discharging the duties of their office. Having free and open elections has meant that we seat people who are clearly not all there, like Rep. Hank Johnson, who worried that Guam was tipping over, or the all-time record champ, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee: currently running for the mayoralty of Houston.
She once asked whether the Mars Pathfinder would be able to find “the flag the astronauts planted there before”. In remarks to Congress, she pontificated that, “today we have two Vietnams, side by side, North and South, exchanging and working.” And she complained that hurricane names were too “lilly white” and urged that “all racial groups should be represented” proposing Hurricanes “Keisha, Jamal and Deshawn”.
The mayoral race offered more classical ‘Sheilaisms’ for the record books.
“Sheila Jackson Lee wants to come home to be your mayor for the city of Houston,” she said, speaking of herself in the third person in the manner of fictional characters and mental patients.
Then she finished with the ominous call, “let the fire start now.”
When the Houston Chronicle asked her why she was running, she replied, among other things, that, “I have been a leader in human and sex trafficking.”
And then her campaign finally made national headlines with an ad urging voters to cast their votes on December 7th, instead of December 9th.
Sure, it’s well known that her staffers hate her, but it’s hard to know if this is internal malice or incompetence.
What is Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee actually qualified for? It’s hard to say. She’s not qualified for either her current job or the one she’s running for.
Maybe there should be some mental competency test for members of Congress, not just presidential candidates. Things like state the outcome of the Vietnam War, the planet that human beings walked on and name the date of the election you’re running in.

Stupidity and incompetence seems to be a requirement for being a Democrat.
Michael says
Well,
She’s an elitist racist and hates this country. Her allegiance is to material gain and power over others. She’s a part of the modern plantation owner system. She believes a place at the table has been given to her if she remains compliant.

The answer is quite simple: The 118th Congress is the third oldest since 1789. Term limits, anyone?
RAM says
Anyone who wants their city to collapse into chaos needs someone like her as Mayor. Some cities have already shown how quickly this can be accomplished.

Men have never walked on another planet, just the moon. (Lol)

Oh come on. Frankie Avalon was singing about Venus in the fifties.
Kasandra says
She’ll be elected, the city will go to Hell, and the media will blame Trump or Republicans. Count on it.

This mindless old hen cant think at all just like the rest of them in the Democrat Party, Globalists/Traitors
Kynarion Hellenis says
Combine bad character, low intellect, strong sense of entitlement and grievance, and there is Jackson Lee.

You forgot butt ugly, inside and out.

“What is Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee actually qualified for?” Well, with a great deal of work and hard study, she MIGHT qualify for dishwasher in a restaurant.
Ugly Sid says
I understand she’s been nominated for formal recognition of her contributions by the Adam Clayton Powell Institute of Public Service.

Weird hairstyle. I used to think that was a modern thing, but it was already normal amongst African tribes in the 1800s and earlier.
Jeff Bargholz says
She probably thinks it looks like a crown and she’s a queen.
Algorithmic Analyst says
Yeah, I saw a lot of drawings in Burton of the African hairstyles during the 1800s.

Twelve years.
Six House terms.
Two Senate.
The Legislature IS NOT a retirement home.
(Feinstein, Grassley, Schumer, Durbin, Johnson, Bernie, Ryan, Brandon… the list is MUCH longer.)
ALL became MILLIONARES on a roughly $174K salary,
Can I do that?
Jeff Bargholz says
Six House terms and two in the Senate is more than twelve years.
Ted Weiland says
Hank Johnson and Shelia Jackson Lee alone should be a wake-up call as to what has invariably come from the constitutional framers banning Christians tests and thereby mandatory biblical qualifications in Article 6.
Once adopted, it was inevitable that America would be ruled by nothing but nincompoops, scoundrels, incompetents, immoral reprobates, and outright criminals. That should sound all too familiar?
Take nincompoops, for example. Exodus 18:21’s qualifications begin with the fear of Yahweh. Kings David and Solomon point out the fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. Thus, without the fear of Yahweh, you end up with, at best, nincompoops as your alleged leaders.
The best you can ever get from the Constitutional Republic’s unbiblical election system is the lessers of two evils. Sometimes, the worst of the worst. And always, the evil of two lessers.

EVERY member of our Federal Gov’t should be subject to MENTAL and HEALTH Testing! We need to know which ones are being “propped up” by what drugs! Their MENTAL capacity should be measured – not their INTELLIGENCE! We KNOW there will be FEW who would pass an INTELLIGENCE test!

Such a shame that she (?) represents the values and intelligence of her people.
