Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) announced on social media late Sunday night that she was recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

The announcement comes after Lee lost her race last year to be the next mayor of Houston following the release of leaked audio tapes in which she berated staffers.

“My doctors have confirmed my diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. I am currently undergoing treatment to battle this disease that impacts tens of thousands of Americans every year,” she said. “I am confident that my doctors have developed the best possible plan to target my specific disease. The road ahead will not be easy, but I stand in faith that God will strengthen me.”

She said she would likely miss time in Congress as she pursues treatment, but her office would continue to support constituents without interruption.

“I am committed to working with our Congressional Leadership including Leader Hakeem Jeffries and the Speaker of House to serve this nation and be present for votes on legislation that is critical for the prosperity and security of the American people,” she said. “By God’s grace, I will be back at full strength soon.”

“Please keep me and my family in your prayers as you have always done,” she concluded. “Know that you will remain in mine. As always, God bless you and God bless the United States of America.”

Lee’s statement generated well wishes from across the political spectrum.

Former President Donald Trump has reportedly raised more than $200 million since a Manhattan jury returned a guilty verdict against him in court last week.

The revelation was made by one of the president’s sons, Eric Trump, whose wife is Republican National Committee co-chair Lara Trump.

Eric Trump was asked by Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on “Sunday Morning Futures” about how much money the former president has raised since last Thursday’s verdict.

“This might be a little inside information, but as I was leaving my house about 37 seconds ago, I asked my wife, what are we up to now?” he said. “And [Lara] said, just in terms of small dollar, we’re well over $70 million. This is $21 donations, $43 donations, right, small dollar donations.”

“If you add the large dollar donations to it, you’re over $200 million,” he continued.

Eric Trump noted that “30 percent of those people have never been seen before by a political party” as they were first time political donors.

“I mean, these are Americans who are pissed off,” he continued. “They’re coming out of the woodwork and they want to support a guy that they just believe he’s getting bamboozled by a system.”
