The Daily Wire weighs in on the Sheila Jackson Lee airline ticket fiasco

Woman Accuses United Airlines Of Giving Her First-Class Seat To Democratic Congressswoman
Then Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee did what she does best: Charge racism
quote:
Jean-Marie Simon, a 63-year-old attorney and private school teacher, was on a loooooong trip back home.
On December 3, Simon had used 140,000 of her frequent flyer miles to buy a first-class, round-trip ticket from Washington, D.C. to Guatemala. On December 18, she was heading back home, flying from Guatemala to D.C. through George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston.
But when Simon went to board her flight for the final leg of her trip, the gate attendant who scanned her paper ticket told her she wasn't in the system — at all. No trace.
"It was just so completely humiliating," she said.
The attendant asked Simon if she had canceled her ticket, and she said, "No. I just want to go home." But Simon was told that the seat she had purchased, 1A — the seat she held a hard ticket for — was already taken. United Airlines offered her a $500 voucher and another ticket in Row 11, Economy Plus. She took it.
When Simon boarded, she saw someone in "her" seat, but not until later did she learn it was Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, Texas Democrat.
Simon posted a lengthy narrative about her ordeal on Facebook, alleging that The Washington Post killed the story:

SJL, the Poster Child for entitlement and privilege. Is becoming my heroine as she singlehandedly undermines the leftist mantra. Heck, erect a monument only to be removed in the near future...my girl!!!!!

1A huh, she should have been on the back of the plane to begin with.

SJL should have been audited after her campaign dropped $10k on Super Bowl tickets. Crooked af.

Dude! Do you have any idea how much bronze it would take just to duplicate her immense buttocks...let's not even get into the wig do's and stuff.
You invested heavily in bronze stocks or something?

The woman in question was on a Houston to DC leg of a Guatemala-Houston-DC trip.

From what I understand, the lady krazy sheila kicked out was a handicapped person.
sheila be so 'oppressed'.
She needs to be booted out of Congress and stripped of all her benefits and pensions.

SJL deserves to find out on Christmas day that she has AIDS. Even people stupid enough to vote for that filthy whore don't deserve her.

Ok ok. I laughed.

The people that vote for her deserves the abstract poverty and gang violence that plagues their shitty little part of Texas.
If you ever heard the Christmas spoof song " cocaine balls " before, it would be a representation of SJL's supporters.

I bet she always requests Row 1 Seat A as some sort of statement.
