Bizarre Democrat Congresswoman Frederica Wilson Is Missing, and Her Staff May Be Covering Up For Her Absence

Before getting to that: Debbie Wasserman-Schultz's congressional seat was eliminated by Ron DeSantis in what many are calling a mercy killing.

Just to prove how important it is to Democrats that blacks have their very own black-only districts, for Muh Representation, Schultz has decided to "appropriate" a majority black district for herself.

This is the seat currently represented by the black female Democrat who stole $5 million in taxpayer funds for covid.

Who is also running again: Because this is the Party of Looters and Shooters.

Politico, but via Ed Morrissey:

Five candidates are vying to be the Democratic nominee in the solidly blue congressional district, and more are considering jumping in -- including Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, one of the country's most recognizable Democrats whose current path to reelection has been made more uncertain after Florida Republicans' mid-decade redistricting. Her possible candidacy has generated vocal opposition from existing candidates -- all of whom are Black -- who argue that the seat was held by a Black lawmaker for more than three decades and should be represented by someone who shares their experiences.
As one may imagine, voters in the new district are unhappy with both choices:

"This is a majority Black primary electorate and a working class district that needs someone to fight for them -- and they don't have stability and representation," said civil activist Elijah Manley, one of the candidates who has openly criticized Cherfilus-McCormick and Wasserman Schultz. "Now there's a war to decide who will be the voice for these people. ... The people here just want stability, and in order to have stability, they need someone who understands their community and what they need."
Candidate Luther Campbell, a former 2 Live Crew member who won a landmark free-speech Supreme Court case over sexually explicit material in one of his albums, called it "ludicrous" that Cherfilus-McCormick was running again. "Focus on your case, and then if you win in your case, then this seat is always up for every two years," he said. He also criticized Wasserman Schultz as "appalling" for considering a run, arguing she would be trying to "take a Black seat."
"I am upset with Debbie Wasserman Schultz. I am upset with Sheila McCormick," he said. "I'm upset with these people because they are playing with people's lives."

On to the missing fashion plate Frederica Wilson. If you're wondering where you've heard that name: She's the Hat Clown Grifter.

She has a wildly inappropriate hat for every occasion. That's her thing. Some focus on national defense, some focus on the economy.

She focuses on novelty cowboy hats. To Save Democracy (TM).

She's missing, but her staff is covering that up.

Florida Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-Fla.) missed the last 43 House votes and hasn't been seen for a month -- that's maybe not the most disturbing part of the story.
The eight-term incumbent is probably best known for her collection of hats -- usually sparkly ones -- is 83 years old, and so it's natural to fear the worst. Wilson's last recorded House vote was on April 17, and House reporter Jaime Dupree noted on BlueSky Wednesday that she "missed all 10 votes on Wednesday in the House," bringing the total to 43 consecutive missed votes over the last four weeks.

The only non-proof of life her staff has offered was a canned statement about a Supreme Court case and DNC pablum in her twitter feed.

But when the congresswoman in question goes missing in action for a month, and that somebody on Wilson's staff just keeps going as though nothing were wrong, well, that's disturbing. When they also photo from last year as though it's new, that's when the paranoia kicks in.
My attempts to reach her office via phone and email received no response. Whatever happened, it looks like Wilson's staff are in lockdown mode.

See the link for more. Steven Greene's best guess is that she has had a major health event, but her staff is covering that up so that no Democrat files to challenge her before the deadline expires.

Speaking of Democrat congresswomen who might have suffered a severe neurological incident:

SENATOR MURRAY: "Do you seriously believe there's abortion in the water, like some of the far-right activists are suggesting?"

EPA ADMIN ZELDIN: "You just said abortion in the water?"

62 “…. who argue that the seat was held by a Black (with a capital B motherfucker!) lawmaker for more than three decades and should be represented by someone who shares their experiences.”

This is one of the more insidious circular arguments to have gained currency in recent years.

The argument can certainly be made that schoolchildren (for example) need to have role models. “Teachers who look like us”.

OK, but does not this same principle hold true with young white children? They are almost exclusively “educated” by female neurotics and anti-make whack jobs. It is incorporated into the curriculum.

Boys are treated as a kind of defective species of girl, to be emasculated, drugged, and increasingly be transitioned into transvestites or homosexualists for purposes of buggery and other sex deviate purposes.

Notice the implication here. Only black individuals can properly represent blacks in a given congressional district?

If so, does it not follow that whites can only be properly represented by whites? This is simply rancid, Tribal politics. No way around it, and done specifically and with malice aforethought. It is offensive in the extreme.

3) the can be effectively represented for two-score and 7 years by the same person; who can only hand those strenuous duties off to their eldest offspring. No kings, though.

That's what Zeldin thinks she's asking. He asks her twice to clarify. Murray is just repeating the talking points on the paper in front of her, so she can't confirm or deny that's what she's talking about. She just starts insisting she's asking about claims in the NYTimes article and right wing activists say there's abortion in the water.

I looked into the article yesterday and activists are claiming the Trump admin EPA is trying to develop abortifacient detection so they can something something which then leads to abortion crackdowns.

95 I had forgotten about her.

Granted,the last 3 days are a blur in the horror of norovirus. I really did forget about the Rhinestone Brokeback Mountain Racist Qween of FL.

I assume this has either been noro (a stomach virus enhanced somehow by chy na) or cholera. Wicked, my friends.

To top off our week my husband discovered a pipe leaking into a corner of the basement. Which is a living area or "in law apt." In this house it is a do whatever you want space of a pool table, fooseball table, grand's winter play area, and art mixed with a man cave library.

The drain from the kitchen sink/dishwasher a floor above is the blame as a pipe cracked. Sheetrock will need to be replaced in places. The recovery people are here now (probably MS-13). Drying it out. Won't be repaired til we are back in town...because yes, we are going out of town soon.

I am healthy enough to recognize the hell upon our house today. Therefore improving vs wanting to die quietly.

It does not hold true for white children, racist.

People started to speculate that she was dead; but someone finally tracked her down to a long term “memory care” facility. Short story, she hardly could hardly even remember her name anymore, but all her staffers wanted to keep collecting those sweet paychecks as long as possible, so they agreed to keep her complete incapacitation a secret as long as possible.

That stupid story is an IQ test.

For those who don't know. Murray started off as a community activist. Murray claims in those days she met with a state legislator about saving a preschool program. The legislator told her he wouldn't help and that Murray couldn't possibly save the program because Murray is, "Just a mom in tennis shoes."

Murray has been using this "Just a mom in tennis shoes" as her campaign slogan since the mid-80s. I don't believe for a second it happened the way Murray says it did.

182 Not that familiar with the entire roster of midgets that is the Senate today, but is Murray still the dumbest? She was for a while. She's immortal for having observed shortly after 9/11 that the Taliban/Al Qaeda were popular in A'stan in part because of their support for women and women's health. Oh, yes.

Was linked up with 2 younger guys by the starter at Hayne's Point golf course back a few months after Murray first took office. One of them was a staffer for Murray. I said I'd just worked in the Senate for years not long before, and asked what she was like. "She's stupid". Other stranger and I cracked up. He offered a few anecdotes. He was already trying to switch bosses in the Senate.

203 Senator Mundt said this though - (excerpt)

On December 20, 1948, Laurence Duggan, the president of the Institute of International
Education and a respected expert on Latin America, jumped from the sixteenth floor of a New York office building. Two weeks earlier, the writer Isaac Don Levine, who had accompanied Whittaker Chambers to his 1939 meeting with Adolf Berle, testified before the committee that Chambers had identified Duggan as being a member of a six-man Communist apparatus that had been passing on top secret government documents.

Asked when the other five members would be named Mundt responded, “We’ll name them as they jump out of windows.” LOL

IIRC it was demonstrated that artificial hormones and other endocrine disruptors were in the water supply and was causing hermaphroditism and sterility in a frog population. There have been a number of studies finding at least trace amounts of estradiol and other synthetic estrogens in tap water - even a 2008 EPA study found this. The issue is how much there is and at what levels it would cause endocrine disruption in humans. Aquatic creatures like fish and frogs are more vulnerable since they're smaller and literally soaking in it.

There are many, many examples of this historically. A pol will make a speech, vote a certain way and then … they change their tune. Suck up to your overlords. Give impassioned speeches why funding needs to be increased, and why, they really need a new headquarters.

And source it fer sure.
So, the fertility docs believe hormones in drinking water can at least have an effect on pregnancy.

I remember chatting with my oldest sister decades ago and she made some comment about not having got pregnant yet. I asked her "you stop taking birth control yet?" She said no.

A few months later she did and was pregnant 20 minutes later.

261 Party of Looters and Shooters, indeed.

Garbage People.

262 Term limits would be nice, and as much of an embarrassment as it is to see ancient fossils who could barely even be considered self-aware on the floor of the Senate, (McConnell, Robert Byrd, DiFi, Ted Kennedy- there always seems to be one dementia added old geezer haunting the Capitol) I don't think age in and of itself should be disqualifying.

I think Congress should in general be keeping tabs on these people seriously. They have an important job to do. If they are sick or dead, we need to take steps.

263 The Demonics are practiced at this. E.g., the Joe Biden "presidency" was, according to a lefty ex-friend, run by "his staff -- they're doing the best they can!"

264 Not a stroke with Patty Murray. She's just an idiot.

Like Biden: start out an idiot, and it’s all downhill from there…

265 Abortion is in the water they say;
Liquid regret wrapped in blanket dismay;
But, the water's 100 proof;
So, the baby goes *poof*;
In truth, they were only in it for the lay.

Term limits are a lazy solution that will encourage more laziness. Being lazy is how we got here. No to term limits.

267 "Patty Murray may be the dumbest Senator."

In fairness, she was this stupid when she was a state senator.

If Rod Chandler hadn't shit the bed during the televised debate in '92, we wouldn't have been stuck with this idiot for the last 34 years.
