(This post may contain disputed claims. We make no assertions as to the validity of the information presented by our Opinion Columnist. We are an opinion blog, not a traditional news outlet, and this post should be treated as such. Enjoy.)Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, who is making headlines for her controversial reparations hearings, has just gotten some really bad news. It’s just been confirmed that her intern, Jackson Cosko, is going to prison, and now all her dirty deeds are being exposed. You’ll love this.
Who can forget the Brett Kavanaugh hearings? It was just last Septemeber when Jackson Cosko, working for Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, doxxed several GOP Senators during the Kavanaugh hearings hoping they would fold and get rid of his nomination to the Supreme Court.
Today, Cosko was found guilty and is going to prison.
“A former intern for Houston-based Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee has been sentenced to four years in prison for posting the private information of several Republican U.S. senators on Wikipedia,” reports ABC News.
Jackson Cosko pleaded guilty to the act, which is also known as “doxing.”
“Authorities say the information was published last year during the controversial hearings for then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh,” added ABC News. “Cosko released the personal information of Senators Lindsey Graham, Orrin Hatch, Mike Lee, Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell.”
The sentence is also for committing a series of burglaries and sophisticated data theft at the office of Senator Maggie Hassan (D-New Hampshire) and obstruction of justice, where he tried to silence a witness by threatening to release the private information of a senator’s children.
The Washington Times reported, “Several senators have had personal information such as their home address and cell numbers released online in recent weeks as Democrats have tried to rally liberal activists to pressure lawmakers into opposing the confirmation of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.”
They weren’t out to “rally” liberal activists. This was a sick plot to scare these senators with no thought that this would all lead to violence. The Democrats have been out of control and will go to any lengths to stop President Donald Trump’s agenda.
Now, Sheila Jackson Lee’s alleged dirty deeds are back in the news.
It was during those same hearings that Jackson Lee handed off an envelope to Christine Blasey Ford’s powerhouse attorney Micheal Bromwich. At the time, Bromwich had just joined the Ford team, and he had to quit his lucrative job at a private firm to do so. Many people thought Jackson Lee was giving Bromwich a big Democratic pay-off.
It started a media frenzy. This is what Rep. Jackson Lee said, “Simply, what was passed were unopened stationery notes to counsel for Dr. Ford from women who wanted to enter the hearing room but were not allowed to enter the hearing room.”
Back in December 2017, Jackson Lee was once again in the spotlight for kicking a woman out of her first class seat on United Airlines, something the Congresswoman does on a regular basis.
United Airlines confirmed that Jackson Lee has a habit of purposefully booking coach seats before demanding to be bumped up to first class. The woman who Jackson Lee bumped out of her first class seat took a picture of her, and that’s when the fireworks started.
The Texas Congresswoman then hurled accusations at Jean-Marie Simon, calling her a racist. Jackson Lee made the big mistake of tweeting about the event. The big problem?
“The woman Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) accused of being a racist in an argument over an airplane seat, is purportedly a ‘celebrated photojournalist’ who has worked extensively in documenting human-rights abuse throughout her career,” reported the Daily Wire.
“I noted that this individual came toward me and took a picture. I heard later that she might have said ‘I know who she is.’ Since this was not any fault of mine, the way the individual continued to act appeared to be, upon reflection, because I was an African American woman,” tweeted Jackson Lee.

Jean Marie countered Jackson Lee’s accusation with a tweet herself: “Washington Times explained my background: human rights activist, former Human Rights Watch/NY, war photographer in Guatemala: Woman accused of racism by Sheila Jackson Lee is a human-rights activist.”

Jackson could not look like more of a whiny, spoiled, privileged bigot who blames everyone else for her abhorrent behavior if she tried. It’s amazing that she has gotten away with this abuse of power for so long without anyone exposing her for the tyrant she is.
The fact that she claims to be oppressed while wielding her skin color as a weapon against those who have dedicated their lives to fighting for the truly oppressed is just the cherry on top of her utterly disgraceful character.
The Democrats will lie, cheat, and encourage violence as a means to get what they want. If this was a GOP Congresswoman she would be censured for ethics violations, and there would be protests to remove her from office. Instead, the Democrats sweep it under the rug hoping it will blow over. That’s how the party of death rolls.
