Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo had a meltdown during Commissioners Court this week, and is being called out by the lone Republican Commissioner.

After nearly 12 hours in session, Hidalgo snapped at both Precinct 3 Commissioner Tom Ramsey and Precinct 2 Commissioner Adrian Garcia.

"Clearly she has issues," Ramsey told KTRH. " We've seen it in the past. We saw it this week. We'll see it again in the future."

Ramsey also tells KTRH that what happened on Tuesday was not a one time thing.

"She is a catalyst for creating problems where they don't exist. She does not focus on what she needs to focus on. She exercises no leadership," Ramsey explained.

The next Commissioners Court meeting is scheduled for a next Thursday.

Meantime, Hidalgo is doubling down on her antics, posting on social media that, “In regards to my confronting Commissioner Garcia  on his months of disrespect: My only regret is not having called attention sooner to his well-known history of blatant disrespect toward me and other colleagues, community leaders, and county employees who dare to disagree with him. He is known to permanently stop greeting, responding to, acknowledging, and even looking at those who cross him. No matter which side of the aisle it comes from, I will not tolerate a pattern of disrespect.
