According to an interview, after his termination last month as a legislative correspondent in Democratic California Senator Diane Feinstein's office, Jamarcus Purley didn't go quietly. He instead chose to get high on shrooms, walk into Feinstein's office, and film himself smoking a joint while jamming out to DeBarge's "I Like It."
Purley sat at a desk wearing a full suit in the video recently posted to YouTube. He proceeded to light up a joint and blow smoke around for a bit. After removing his jacket and tie, Purley showed off his moves as he made his way around Feinstein's office, and yes, he almost fell twice.
According to the interview, the official reason for Purley’s termination was based on "performance issues." Still, Purley claims it was due to how outspoken he was about Feinstein not caring about black people on a team call on January 24, 2022.
"You gotta be f***king kidding me. I've been working here five years; the Senator has never walked by my desk. That's why every black and brown person is leaving this office," Purley reportedly said on the call. "That's when I told them: 'The Senator cares more about her dog than black people.'"
On February 8, 2022, Purley received his termination letter from Feinstein, which prompted Purley to post and promote said letter to Instagram. After it reached just over 7,000 users, however, Purley said Instagram shut down the promotion.
This defeat became the catalyst for his next act: Taking shrooms and making his way back into Feinstein's office with a vengeance for his solo debut as the scorned ex-staffer.

The full impact of this psychedelic-fueled rebellious act has yet to be determined, as no one in Feinstein's office has made an official comment. (It's hard not to laugh imagining Feinstein's reaction to the video, though!) And while Purley's song choice was top-notch, the real question remains: Would you hire him?
UNBELIEVABLE: THIS politician has been absent 33.4% of the time, but there’s someone with an even WORSE record
Pat Gray and Jeff Fisher aren’t impressed with this member of the Senate for several reasons, one of them being his abysmal attendance record.
A child in school would be charged with truancy for a record like this, but this person seems to get a free pass when it comes to absenteeism.
Who are we referring to?
None other than John Fetterman.
“John Fetterman is the second-most absent member of the U.S. Senate,” says Pat. “He has been absent 33% of the time, 33.4% to be precise.”
Pat admits that some of this absenteeism is a result of being away for medical purposes, but the reality is, Fetterman “doesn’t show up for votes,” which is the entire point of his role.
There’s only one person with a worse record.
“Feinstein has missed 46.3% of votes this session,” says Pat.
“But don’t let that bother you,” he jokes. “Do they really need to be there?”
“No,” answers Jeffy. “Look, Biden's been gone for 40% of the time … so why do they gotta be there?”
While the absenteeism is certainly frustrating, Pat sees the silver lining.
“They're all almost equally useless at this point, so go ahead and just stay home permanently; that would be nice,” he laughs.
