‘It’s Bullsh*t!’: Jasmine Crockett Shrieks At GOP For Wanting To Cut NPR, PBS Funding

Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett unleashed a profanity-laced tirade at Republicans during a Wednesday hearing on National Public Radio (NPR) and the Public Broadcasting System (PBS).

The House Oversight Committee’s Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency held a hearing titled “Anti-American Airwaves: Holding the heads of NPR and PBS Accountable” during which Republicans questioned continued taxpayer funding for the media outlets. Crockett, who has a history of launching personal attacks on Republicans since she was elected in the 2022 midterm elections, ranted about the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) when recognized by Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, who chairs the subcommittee.

“The DOGE agenda isn’t about government efficiency, it’s about breeding corruption at the expense of the safety of the American people, particularly Americans living in rural or remote parts of the country,” Crockett claimed. “They don’t care about public safety. They don’t care about emergency management and they don’t care about free speech, all of which are harming American people.”

After briefly questioning NPR CEO Katherine Maher about statements she made prior to assuming the post, Crockett resumed her rant.

“To be clear, free speech is not about whatever it is that y’all want somebody to say, and the idea that you want to shut down everybody that is not Fox News is bullshit. We need to stop playing, because that’s what you all are doing here, you don’t want to hear the opinions of anybody else,” Crockett said.
