Per the National Pulse, Sylvester Turner, the far-left Democrat who briefly served in Congress after decades in Texas politics, has died at 70. Turner, born in Houston. built his career in law before entering the Texas House of Representatives in 1989 where he served for 25 years. As mayor of Houston from 2016 to 2024, he backed left-wing policies including expansive LGBTQ initiatives, mass immigration policies, and taxpayer-funded abortion programs. He was elected to Congress in 2024 after Representative Sheila Jackson Lee's death, but served less than two months before his passing. His political career was marked by controversy. In 1991, a failed mayoral bid was derailed by an insurance fraud allegation, though he was never charged. As mayor he faced criticism over a $95,000 a year internship for a connected law graduate, his boy toy. He was also caught up in the alleged favoritism scandal in affordable housing contracts and a corruption case involving a top aide who admitted to accepting bribes.
