A Wisconsin state senator was cited for disorderly conduct and making a scene inside a Wells Fargo bank on Friday.
WISN reports Lena Taylor, a Democratic state senator representing Milwaukee, became enraged and berated a teller who refused to cash a $831 check because she did not have sufficient funds in her account.
Two plain clothes police officers who witnessed the encounter overheard Taylor call the teller a “house ni–er” for following the bank’s policies.
According to WISN:
“Milwaukee Police officers …. Overheard Taylor berating the teller and intervened. A shift lieutenant arrived on the scene shortly thereafter and, after reviewing the bank’s security camera footage, issued Taylor a municipal citation for disorderly conduct.”
The Wisconsin attorney general forwarded a reporter‘s questions to Taylor’s office. Tylor’s spokesperson stated Taylor would release a statement about the incident on Monday.
The bank incident was just the latest in a series of public outbursts by Taylor.
Taylor was ticketed in 2009 for crossing the center line with her car. She berated the Milwaukee officers who pulled her over, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
The police report from the incident said Taylor told officers we “shouldn’t waste our energy for the stop and she can’t be expected to wait for the light. Taylor was very argumentative and appeared her intent was to provoke an argument with us officers,” according to the news site.
Taylor convinced a police captain to take care of the ticket for her, but it was later reinstated by Chief Edward Flynn and she paid the $122 fine.
In 2016, half of Taylor’s office staff quit during the Legislative budget writing process.
what exactly amounts to sufficient funds in order to have a check cashed? scuse my ignorance i still store dough in a safe next to my bed
Is that her with the mushroom ? hairstyle up top? Chile please ?
If the check was written from a Wells Fargo account they should have cashed it. Color me confused here.
If there isn’t a video, it didn’t happen.
bam! truly, what you think about this starkbucks drama?
fucc wells fargo shady ass. got a better rate and more funding at my credit union.
Why didn’t she just deposit it? You’ll have access to your money in a few days.
or if the individual has an account at Wells Fargos. seem like an irky policy to me and i guess this is why check cashing places exist
Anger management may be in order.
You low key saying her hairstyle is taking you back? Well me too.
Is she Bi-polar? Bi-drunkard? or Both?
I’m about to slide on their ass too. Looking for a better bank.
LOL.. an amount that equals the check I believe in case that bad boy is rubber!
Both
Off Topic
Somebody said on IG that True is the only “truth” there was ever a relationship with Tristan and Khole
She better stop acting all crazy because she might run up on the wrong one who don’t care about nothing….and lay hands on her…And I’m not talking about Jesus From Nazareth laying of hands….LOL
WF is a rip-off. Someone wrote me a check being that it was a WF account I took it there to cash it. Well since I didn’t have an account with WF myself to cash the check would have been a $7 service fee. I was baffled lol. I just took the check to my own bank.
i can just smell it
FUKKKKKKKKK I thought the pic was of the BANK teller. Not of Lena. I thought for sure Lena was gonna be some old ass white lady on a cane who looked like her sister would be named Ms. Daisy.
No sympathy for Wells Fargo. They let randoms steal money from my account twice in the past year and did no investigation. Plus they were the ones opening up fake accounts in people’s names. Biggest damned thieves of them all.
i had to go jump through hoops to get a college cash back card with a $500 limit 10 years ago (had $3,000 in the bank). I switched on they ass, got a $3k card off top and after waiting, got another one for $10k.
I have heard horrible stories about WF….I know that I bank at BoA…but I acted a fool one time and called Corporate office……I got a lot of goodies for free…..My friends want to know how I don’t pay for cashier checks and a lot of stuff…..It’s call take all yo money out and watch how they respond…..LOL
Well just as if it was a REPUBLICAN or any person in general they should be reprimanded! If it was up to me fired! There’s plenty of other bad behavior she got away with. MY GRANDMA HATE THE WORD HOUSE NIGGAS! SHE AND HER MOM WAS CALLED THAT THEY WHOLE LIFE BECAUSE THE COLOR OF THERE SKIN. Believe it or not a lot came from black people.
I wish that the teller would have got me and let me handle this customer…..LOL….In front of the Po Po…..LOL….
Smells of pink rollers oil mosturizer and some 3/4 inch curlers lmao
I sholl damn flash backed ??
we outta here. NEW POST.. “the cruxifiction of starbucks”
and you KNOW the ends are splitta than a motha
I wouldn’t be able to bank there… I use a credit union and never had to have the money in my account to cover a check. If the check bounces the issuer will be contacted and responsible for the debt.
I use to be a teller. If a customer coming into bank with a 830 check and their account is -900 that means I can deposit the check, but the customer will not be walking away with any money.
Most likely the Senator thought she could walk away with all her money and not have to cover her insufficient funds. So the teller was probably being nice and letting her know if she deposit, she will not get all the money or either take your butt on to a check cashing place and get your money.
what thee fawk … I would have lost my job that day … Some folks straight up need their dome rocked … Instantly …?
This ??.. you don’t know what people be going through and you fix your lips to say that… Chile ..
She looks familiar…why lawd ?
She should have spoken to me……
If you’re 51 years old, a state senator, and have a law degree… but you don’t have $831 in your account to cover a check, you may want to examine your life a little bit.
#justsaying
How not shocking about the Democratic senators behavior… Her Party is notoriously known for going ballastic on other blacks and treating them terrible. Aww she did not get her way and the Democrat went Ballastic typical.
I wonder why two plain clothes police officers just so happen to be in earshot of this conversation. Seems like they’re spying on her and following her. Could be wrong tho!
???

Ya think? ? Ticketed for crossing the center line??? ?
She had insufficient funds to cover the check, nowhere does it say she was overdrawn.
Right!!! Losing in LIFE!!!
Sandy is that you????????
you said “mushroom” ….LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Typical dumb Black Democrat…That silly woman think that Black man is supposed to break the rules for her,at his own peril—>Bish please!
I will say it again,”Nyggaz think the rules don’t apply to them”.Sad thing is that Blacks, keep electing her.
I truly feel most of us commenting has more money in our accounts than this heaux, she should be ashamed
831 dollar check and you don’t have that in your bank account? Smh probably got a purse full of credit cards smh
Damn you sound paranoid like many Black people…
IT’S A BANK and perhaps there may have been a robbery there or perhaps an active robbing crew which would explain the undercovers….
lawd, we just keep going down the drain.
lawd, we just keep going down the drain.
Girl you didn’t have 800 in the bank!?!? Maybe you need to find a better job

See you just as bad as her with that “like many black people” statement. Statistically the probability of two plain police officers being in the same bank as a congress woman within earshot of this conversation is just very unlikely, I don’t care how I sound. Unless of course this a special bank that only certain members of state/fed workers can bank with, is the only other rational explanation.
I wasn’t being paranoid, I just made an observation.

Wondering if she’s any kin to Christine Beatty ?

Who cares if he’s a client, they need to get to the juicy stuff about WHY he’s a client…If there is no juice involved, I’m sure they wouldn’t care he’s a client either.
It’s not the tellers fault you had insufficient funds you freaking idiot. So glad someone over heard her revealing herself.
I was wondering the same thing, a broke senator?
Move along, nothing to see here but a booger wolf doing what they do!
I’m sure that’ll be covered during the investigation. ?
Sounds like she has anger management problems. Nobody is going to lose their job because you want to cash a bogus check, Do like everybody else and wait until payday…
Really?! You know black folks use that word with other black folks!
If she needed cash in a hurry, she could pawn her fake pearls.
Booger wolf?! LMAO
Gurl exactly!

did not have sufficient funds in her account.

Sister join the club ok.
I am thinking that had to be a personal check as well…
I know here in Miami, my friend(Wells Fargo customer)cashes their payroll check when they are in the negative. They tried to cash a personal check once and the teller told them no because of the account. I have Bank of America, and direct deposit!
Dint waste your time responding to ignorance
Sounds like the plain clothes officers might’ve worked in the bank prolly for this very reason…
And her district still voted her in? Insane people.
She should be fired and ridiculed like any other race of person that says that word.
Narcissistic sociopath.
These people, like Trump, get voted in because the voters hate blacks enough that they’d overlook moral depravation.
She would have gotten at least 100 bucks! ???
When will black women get tired of always making a scene?
I would have slapped the piss out of her tired, broke ass…. with those fake pearls and 1995 ass hairdo .. bye !
And have the nerve to call the lady a house ninja for doing her job. Ugh … I would have probably lost my job that day lol
Get yo broke ass out the bank…
If I was that teller I would have embarrassed the phuck out of her broke ass. I remember when I was younger I was a teller AND it was always the broke mofos that came in and gave us a problem. Talking bout their going to close their account if they can’t have their way.?? Bye Bush! ??
Wow…what’s the story behind that stress related outburst honey? Better be a good one….
Booger wolf? Warning! Warning troll among the community..warning
Warning! Warning troll among the community.
Warning! Warning troll among the community..warning warning Will Robinson
Not trolling, just calling it like I see it!!
looooooooooooool
Can’t cover a $900 check? Her BMW payments are probably behind.
Erratic behavior, outbursts of anger, and little to no money in your bank accounts despite having a good paying job??? hmmm… Drugs are bad hun.
Lol, I see what ya did there. That Lost In Space on Neflix is good. Didn’t think it would be…
She looks like an elementary school teacher we used to have that would smoke crack all night but wear her hair rollers to the crackhouse so she would look put together for school in the morning. She would look at us (her former students) like she was at Sunday tea when we knew good and well what she was doing in the trap. Lena probably carries a set of hair rollers and plastic pearls in the car.
LOL. yeah it was pretty good. GOOD CATCH (e-high five)
WTF? why the hell could this silly, belligerent broad be shocked that a bank wouldn’t cash a check when the account does not have enough funds?! How the fuk is that the teller’s fault? GIRL, sit your delusional, self-entitled azz down.
LMMFAO!!!
LMMFAO!
SMH. I guess when black men stop contouring their faces????????
That really was a reach… I’m sorry. If they hated blacks (not saying they don’t) and this one acts this foolish, what sense does it make to vote her in again?
Being broke on top of an already bad attitude = periodic outbursts!
The angry birds flew their coop on this, but I have to agree.
I’m sure we’ve all had a similar experience at the bank…I personally scurried away, no need to get mad at the teller, go get your finances together boo!!
I guess she just couldn’t deposit funds and wait a day.
Shameful
That’s funny
Gurl me too LoL
I totally agree such an supposedly successful person acting an ass over a check. Maybe she mad at Wells Fargos new bank policies… My mom acted the same way a true professional only when it counts. BUt the ghetto was always in here
ok looking like a throwback in-set photo from forensic files LOL
No but if you trying to get Ms Rose attention…You might wanna step up ya posts! ?
Nope. Her account didn’t have sufficient funds in the first place, so she needed that damn money…
lol
See this heffa needs to loose her position, because apparently she does not know how to handle the power. This is disgraceful….she should be ashamed of herself!! Why get mad cause the teller was doing her job???
and she goes out to her car on lunch and snorts lines off the dashboard, so that she can deal with them “chaps” that get on her nerves…..and is the first one in line at the corner store after school to pick up a pack of Virginia Slims, 2 cans of Steel Reserve and pack of Swisher Sweets……..LMAO!!! Sorry to piggyback off your comment….but I felt “in the moment”…lol
Clearly
Because she’s white, female, spreading hate, and more highly regarded than a black person.
I would give her $19.97 and a book of S&H green stamps for that necklace.
When I looked up the Senator, she IS black! So who are you referring to?
LOLLOLLOL!!!
Well damn that’s even worse. So you know whom I’m referring to because you read my comment. Keep up!
