Smoothly-run offices have high retention rates and low attrition rates. So what does it tell you that Texas Democratic State Rep. Jolanda Jones has a 100% attrition rate in her senior staffers last week?
The senior staff for Democrat State Rep. Jolanda Jones of Houston announced their resignation over her ‘toxic and unethical’ behavior Thursday.
A Democrat behaving toxicly and unethically?
Jones, a freshman in the Texas House and former contestant on the reality show Survivor, reportedly “actively covered up [her] son Jio’s inappropriate relationship with one of [her] interns, who is significantly younger than him and is in a power imbalance, and [is] now using [her] position to intimidate and silence [her] own staff members.”
Nepotism? Check. Sexual harassment? Check. Also, Jiovanni Jones is evidently out on bail on felony drug charges. Criminal charges? Check.
According to Jones’ senior staff, she “continued to endorse, encourage, and create an abusive and hostile work environment in the workplace without accountability for [her] or [her] relatives’ actions.”
Jones’ chief of staff, legislative director, and district director told her to “own your S.H.I.T.,” in reference to Jones’ book titled “Owning My S.H.I.T.: Suffering Hardship Internalizing Trauma.”
Social justice warrior on social justice warrior fratricide? Check.
The staff’s resignation letter, which can be read in full below, focused mainly on an alleged inappropriate relationship between Jones’ son, Jiovanni Jones, and an intern in the office:
“Jio is not only your son, but General Counsel at Elite Change Inc. (registered lobbying firm and also the financial vehicle of your campaign manager, Dallas Jones).
More nepotism plus a mechanism to rake off campaign donations into your family’s pockets? Check.
If the name Dallas Jones seems familiar, it’s because he was accused of helping Democrats carry out election fraud back in 2020.
This inappropriate relationship may constitute as sexual harassment or a conflict of interest between his office of employment and your state office.
“It is concerning that you have not taken any steps to address his behavior, and instead have chosen to put everyone in the office at risk,” said the senior staff. “Your son is an absolute liability, and his behavior is now affecting the livelihoods and credibility of everyone on your payroll. It is so disappointing to see that while you build your profile on overcoming abuse, you cannot stand up to the abuser that you raised. You are holding a legal case hostage over your son’s girlfriend because you allow him to gaslight and emotionally and physically abuse all the women in his life – work and personal – while dragging your entire office through it.”
Funny how when you start digging into charges of cronyism against a Democratic office holder, a whole host of other unsavory activity comes tumbling out into the open…

So I’m guessing Jiovanni Jones is not the same as Giovanni Jones, who was the opera singer in “Long Haired Hare” with Bugs Bunny.
Pity. It would be a lot more entertaining that way…
Mentored by Sheila Jackson-Lee, no doubt.
For every other minority group in American history the primary ways to a stable job and the middle-class was: small business formation, home ownership, and higher education.
But not for black Americans. For them the primary way to a stable job and the middle-class was and still is nepotism, especially nepotism in local and small government employment. Walk into city offices in major metros like Chicago, St. Louis, or Philadelphia and not only will the overwhelming majority of staff be black, but if you pay attention they’re all related to each other.
40 acres and a mule turned into $40k job working with your mom, your auntie, your cousin, your step-sister, your….you get the picture.
It ain’t just the blacks, either. West coast, where the “Hispanic” percentage is high? Just try getting service from local government, in a lot of places, particularly with anything remotely related to welfare.
