Things screamed by Chris Christie's niece as she was dragged off a Spirit Airlines flight.

I'm reading "Chris Christie’s niece shouted ‘Do you know who I am?’ during violent plane meltdown" (NY Post).

The niece, Shannon Epstein, had confronted some other passengers, presumably because they looked Hispanic, and asked them if they were smuggling cocaine.

I just want to note some things she's accused of yelling:

1. “Do you guys think I have cocaine in my p—y?” 

2. "I’m a lesbian. Is that it? Do you want put your dick in me? That’s it, isn’t it. That’s what this is all about? You want to put your dick in my mouth, don’t you? You’re so f—ed, you asshole."

3. "By this time tomorrow you will both be in jail. What the f— did I do?

4. "Do you know who I am? I’m related to some very powerful people and I need to get back on that plane to New Jersey. Do you know who I am? I’m Chris Christie’s daughter and you’re so f—ed. You will lose your job over this s—. I know Donald Trump.”

5. “Wow, you guys like Chris Christie? He’s f—ing friends with f—ing Donald Trump.”

Trump people are something else.

He constantly bragged about having the best people and the last few weeks have proven him right.

Enigma said...

Spirit Airlines? The ultra cheap pay for all upgrades airline? She has an ego but flies on that one? Wow!


Was she separated at birth from the Korean Air "nut-rage" woman?
Was she separated at birth from the evil-eyed sister of North Korea's Kim Jong Un (and possibly the next Marvel Comics villain)?

She's a Progressive nothing, who is using her fat Uncle's name to get out of the mess she made for herself. Let her rot.

Colleen from Cleveland said...

When did it become fashionable to highlight the actions of individuals with obvious mental issues and then attribute what they ramble to a political party? e.g. Kanye West

wendybar said...

And ignorant as she is, she should probably be told that Trump and her Uncle don't like each other.

Jake said...

That sounds like some of the most ridiculous shit I’ve ever heard. Leads me to believe she probably said it. How drunk does someone have to be? I assume there were also prescription drugs involved.

I Have Misplaced My Pants said...

Charming young lady.

Raymond Babbitt: Are you taking any prescription medication?

farmgirl said...

“I’m Chris Christie’s daughter” but she’s really the niece?
Sounds like she’s less lesbian than she wants to be…

Lucien said...

To be fair, if you were on a 6:00 a.m. flight from New Orleans to New Jersey, wouldn’t you be drunk off your ass too?

iowan2 said...

Entitled people acting entitled. Paul Pelosi comes immediately to mind.

Mike (MJB Wolf) said...

Has her dad’s lovely personality and a millennial sense of entitlement. Quite the package! One tiny quibble i have with her rant: her daddy used to know Trump but i doubt Don would give Chris the time of day now.

Robert Marshall said...

Sounds like she was about four years late to that 'do you know who I am' party. You gotta keep up with that shit.

gilbar said...

who is she? Heck, who WAS she? and finally.. Who Cares?

Mark said...Trump people are something else.

Chris Christie's niece having a meltdown on an airplane is really about Donald Trump? Lefties are something else.

Be Nice wendybar!
That's NOT the correct pronoun for referring to Mark.. The Correct pronoun is: Ignorant Slut

WWIII Joe Biden, Husk-Puppet + America's Putin said...

She brought up Trump and her Uncle.

One article says it was his daughter. or she said that? who cares. She brought up Trump - so it's more garbage in his corner.

WWIII Joe Biden, Husk-Puppet + America's Putin said...

"Do yo know who I am!"

How on earth would anyone know who she is? Who does she think she is --- John Kerry?

Mike (MJB Wolf) said...

The only reason we are hearing about Christie’s niece is her reference to Trump. That is Hooker’s favorite part of the story. Obviously the Trump Team didn’t vet Chris well enough or they would have discovered the niece is a troubled person and obviously that’s Trump’s fault. Airtight logic April! Only slightly less embarrassing than the actual on-plane meltdown is the desperation in “but Trump”ing the story.

WWIII Joe Biden, Husk-Puppet + America's Putin said...

No Mike - It is not my 'favorite part' of the story. Trump soiled himself long ago. The headlines write themselves.

Howard said...

You gotta love those Jersey Girls.

Spiros said...

Politicians are rude, obnoxious jerks. And they're rewarded for behavior that would get a normal person fired from his job (or canceled by social media). An example.
When Joe Biden called military personnel “stupid bastards” and insulted their service, legacy media fawned over him. "Biden is tough." "We need a man like Biden who won't take the Republican's non-sense." How about Amy Klobuchar? This woman has an explosive temper. But Ms. Klobuchar is not unreasonable or too sensitive and she never overreacts! Instead, we are told that, Ms. Klobuchar fights for our rights and wants women to be treated equally. Really? Beating up a 22 year old intern is fighting for our rights?

Chris Christie is probably a terrible person as well. It is at least possible that his personality rubbed off on his children (or niece).

West TX Intermediate Crude said...

When I hear a name like "Shannon Epstein," I think of Juan Epstein, of Kotter.
It was funny, then.

No wonder Ann liked the article.

The Geoff Duncan/McConnell wing of the Republican party showing it's ass.

Just go be a democrat and get it over with.

Lem the artificially intelligent said...

It’s a familiar streak. I remember Gov Christy going to a beach with family and friends which his own admiration had closed to the public. Jesus talk about tone deaf.

A very popular memetic photo came out of it.

Temujin said...

She seems sane. Tossing around her family's name as if she was some kind of Pelosi or something.

And yes, she seems more a lefty than a righty.
What is it about airplanes and Portland that attracts the nutcases?

rehajm said...

Doesn’t every woman from New Jersey have that in em?

Quaestor said...

The previous rowdy and abusive airline passenger to pull the Do you know who I am? routine was Alec Baldwin. Remember him? The guy who peddled his anti-Trump SNL gig into an I didn't know it was loaded murder spree?

Lem the artificially intelligent said...

If you want to read something hilarious check out the Spirit Airlines passenger restriction.

Apparently people have boarded only wearing a bikini.

Will Cate said...

This might be the most Spirit Airlines thing to ever happen on Spirit Airlines.

Lem the artificially intelligent said...

“This might be the most Spirit Airlines thing to ever happen on Spirit Airlines.“

Read their passenger restrictions.

Bob Boyd said...

Compare and contrast both the facts and the media handling of the Hunter Biden and Shannon Epstein situations.

Bob Boyd said...

Let he who has never gotten a little drunk and fought with the airport cops in a jetway cast the first stone.

Anthony said...

"She went Spirit Airline. Never go Spirit Airline."

Lurker21 said...

Alcohol and/or drugs were probably involved.

The police think so too.

mikee said...

When she asked the Hispanic looking people about cocaine, was she looking to buy, or accusing them of unlawful activity? Based on Lucien's astute observation about how to fly Spirit at 6:00am from NE ot NJ, I think we all know the answer to that question.

Balfegor said...

Re: Enigma:

Was she separated at birth from the Korean Air "nut-rage" woman?

The KAL nut-rage woman was a senior executive and a member of the KAL "royal family." As far as I recall, she wasn't throwing a fit because she wasn't recognised (the air crew probably knew who she was) but because she was outraged that the staff at her family's company weren't providing high quality service.

Not to say she behaved appropriately, of course, but it's categorically different from some nobody politician or actor shrieking "do you know who I am?" It's more like Steve Jobs haranguing and belittling his staff until they cry because he doesn't think their work is good enough. It's bad, but a different kind of misbehaviour.

WWIII Joe Biden, Husk-Puppet + America's Putin said...

Losing your "sh*t" in an airport or on an airplane. Not worth it. You will lose, every time.

walter said...

Yes, Mark.
She should have claimed to know the other Big Guy.
That's an honorable bunch.

Joe Smith said...

She escaped the super-fat-enormous gene.

Good for her...

Dave Begley said...

The FBI knows who Hunter Biden is.

mezzrow said...

Do you have asshole relatives? I know I do.

Still, child... Get a grip. This is no way to go through life.

She said: "I’m a lesbian. .."

Obviously expected special treatment for being lez. gay people are something else.

I would PayPal a dollar to see the video.

PM said...

It's so sad when a young person forgets their own name.

FullMoon said...

I blame the parents.

Randomizer said...

"Do you know who I am?"

When someone becomes a prominent figure, the rest of the family should attend a charm school seminar or at least be given a booklet to make it clear that use of that phrase disqualifies the relative from any assistance by the VIP.

The graphic sexual comments are troubling. Where is that coming from? I wonder if she's ever partied with Hunter Biden.

Yes, it makes click bait but these people are not mentally right. Lefty Mark is an example of those with Trump living in his head. There seems plenty of room.

FleetUSA said...

Lurker nails it IMHO

Howard said...

For whatever reason, Spirit Airlines gives me a ValuJet vibe.

Lem Former Twitter Aficionado said...It’s a familiar streak. I remember Gov Christy going to a beach with family and friends which his own admiration had closed to the public.

My favorite part is how unapologetic he was after it blew up. He actually said something like,
"what are people complaining about? If they wanted to go to a closed beach, they should have run for governor." This is a guy who knew his career was already over and was happy to be a dick.

FullMoon said...

She just needs a strong man (and a good ..) to rein her in..

Duke Dan said...

Definite a hot crazy matrix datapoint there. Half way to hot is super crazy.

effinayright said...

Delta flight attendant lore has it that on, a "full" flight, a Kerry-like asshole passenger demanded his bulky luggage be allowed in the cabin and not stored in the baggage compartment below.

When a F/A said no to that, he glared and gave her the "Do you know who I am?" treatment.

The F/A grabbed the guy's arm, raised it above his head and loudly shouted, "This poor man has forgotten who he is. Anybody know his name?"

Hilarity ensued among the other passengers.

JPS said...

This is the saddest "I am related to a famous person!" I've seen since I came across this, about the late, troubled Eric Douglas.

I gather it always bothered him that he never achieved anything like his dad's or his brother's fame. Anyway, he tried his hand at standup. It wasn't going well, and someone started heckling.

He said, with what level of humor or humorlessness I cannot know, "You can't heckle me! I'm Kirk Douglas' son!"

The heckler stood and yelled, "No, I'm Kirk Douglas' son."

And another: "I'm Kirk Douglas' son!" And so on.

n.n said...

Diversity (e.g. racism)? The bigot, you say. Maybe.

Epstein? Epstein? Yes, a familiar name. Ostensibly self-aborted in a high security political pad.

Readering said...

I'm thinking that in addition to the safety video, airlines should play a short video before boarding of news stories about unruly passengers being removed, arrested and prosecuted. But maybe won't work if impaired.

Tomcc said...

She seems to have a future in politics. Well, maybe if she agrees to counseling.

donald said...

Value jet was a fantastic and cheap airline, it’s service was great, based in southern hospitality. Spirit is a Northeastern /Yankee/garbage/rude/asshole nightmare. Glad to clear that up asswipe.

James Graham said...

If she makes it to AA this event would be a feature of her speech.

How many times in an average day does someone not Chris Christie's niece get dragged screaming off an airplane somewhere in the US?

Every day, FAA's Air Traffic Organization (ATO) provides service to more than 45,000 flights and 2.9 million airline passengers across more than 29 million square miles of airspace.

Christie's Catholic. She.s Jewish and his niece. He's fat, she's thin. Christie straight. She's a Lesbian. He's famous, she's nobody. He's a glad-handing pol, she's an obnoxious A hole.

They don't have much in common. Stop making a connection.

Christopher B said...

Generally, when a woman accuses a man of wanting to stick his d!@k in her, most guys are thinking "I wouldn't stick my worst enemy's d!@k in that, lady."

Althouse Blog Commissar: "She brought up Trump and her Uncle.

One article says it was his daughter. or she said that? who cares. She brought up Trump - so it's more garbage in his corner."

Trump is now responsible for the actions and words of Chris Christie's niece on a commercial aircraft.

Noooooooo, that's not psychotic TDS at all. Why do you ask?

Bunkypotatohead said...

"Do you know who I am?..."

Well we do now.
