At the funeral of Democrat Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee in Houston, Texas, Hillary Clinton utilized the event as a platform to promote Kamala Harris’ candidacy, despite the recent passing of Lee after her fight with cancer.
During the funeral, Kamala Harris was also seen exchanging greetings with the Clintons.

The Clintons swiftly gave their support to Kamala Harris for president following Biden’s announcement of his withdrawal from the 2024 race last month.
Harris was not elected by the people but rather selected by a small group of Democrat elites, as she likely would not have been able to secure victory in the primary.
Hillary utilized the late lawmaker’s funeral as a platform for her campaign.
“But come next January when our first woman president takes the oath of office, I’ll be thinking of Sheila, wondering what up in heaven she’s wearing, what magnificent long scarf she has wrapped around herself,” Hillary Clinton said.
WATCH:
The use of Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee’s funeral as a political platform for promoting Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton’s agenda is not only controversial, but disrespectful.
Funerals are meant to be solemn occasions to honor and remember the life of the deceased, not to further political ambitions.
The swift endorsement of Kamala Harris for president by the Clintons following Biden’s withdrawal from the 2024 race raises questions about the democratic process and the will of the people.
It is concerning that a candidate who was not elected by popular vote but rather selected by a small group of Democrat elites is being pushed into the spotlight in such a manner.
