Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas has been an outspoken critic of President Donald Trump, and since she was elected in 2022, she’s managed to have her share of viral moments.
Crockett hit the scene during a May 17, 2024, clash with Republican Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene during a House Oversight Committee hearing. Since then, she’s been known for outrageous comments, prolific profanity and flying off the handle over simple questions.
Here are four of her craziest moments from the fall of 2025.
Sept. 12: Crockett Compares ICE To ‘Slave Patrols’
United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents are up 1,000% year-over-year, the agency reported in a Sept. 22 release, while death threats have climbed by 8,000%, according to an Oct. 30 release by the Department of Homeland Security. The Trump administration has blamed anti-ICE rhetoric for riots at ICE facilities across the country, including Chicago and Portland, Oregon, which have been the scene of multiple riots as opposition to the agency’s operations targeting illegal immigrants has intensified.
During her Sept. 12 appearance on “The Breakfast Club,” Crockett’s discussion of ICE with host Charlamagne tha God, took an inflammatory path.
WATCH:
“They are unleashing this rogue policing force that if they taught black history, they would know about slave patrols. Because when I look at what they are doing with ICE, it looks like slave patrols,” Crockett said. “And then you’ve got a Supreme Court that’s like, ‘Yeah, you can pick them up because of how they look or how they sound.’ That sounds like a slave patrol.”
Sept. 21: Crockett Calls Charlie Kirk A “Confederate Relic”
Crockett was one of 58 Democrats who voted against a resolution honoring Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk in the aftermath of his Sept. 10 assassination during an event at Utah Valley University.
During a Sept. 21 appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Crockett was unrepentant.
“So, if there was any way that I was going to honor somebody who decided that they were just going to negatively talk about me and proclaim that I was somehow involved in the great white replacement?” Crockett asked host Dana Bash. “Yeah, I’m not honoring that kind of stuff, especially as a civil rights attorney and … knowing that there were people that died, people that were willing to die, that worked to make sure that voices like mine could exist in this place.”
WATCH:
“So to me, just like we wanted to make sure that those Confederate relics were taken down, the idea of a new age relic being propped up was something that I just could not subscribe to,” Crockett added. “And it is unfortunate that more of my colleagues, even on my side of the aisle, could not see the amount of harm that this man was attempting to inflict upon our communities.”
Nov. 19: Crockett Doesn’t Do Due Diligence
During a debate on a resolution to censure Democratic Del. Stacey Plaskett of the Virgin Islands over resurfaced text messages with registered sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, Crockett tried to tie Republicans to the disgraced financier.
“Folks who also took money from somebody named Jeffrey Epstein, as I had my team dig in very quickly. Mitt Romney, the NRCC, Lee Zeldin, George Bush, Win Red, McCain Palin, Rick Lazio. I just want to be clear, if this is the standard that we’re going to make, just know we’re going to expose it all and just know that the FEC filings, they are available for everybody to review,” Crockett claimed.
WATCH:
After Crockett made the false allegation during the debate on the floor of the House of Representatives, she later claimed she only had 20 minutes before the debate during an appearance on CNN’s “The Source.”
The Daily Caller News Foundation took less than ten minutes to confirm that the donation to Zeldin took place in April 2020, months after the disgraced financier apparently committed suicide in his Manhattan jail cell while awaiting trial after he was arrested in 2019, and that the Epstein in question was a self-employed physician.
Nov. 20: Crockett Believes “Random Black Bodies” Hang All Over The South
Crockett spent almost an hour rambling during her Nov. 20 livestream, claiming Trump was responsible for a surge in political violence in the United States, despite her tendency to compare Trump to former German dictator Adolf Hitler.
“They not even gonna, honestly, they about to outlaw the idea of white supremacy and white hate. Like they are about to be like, ‘Oh, that’s not a thing,’” Crockett said. “Forget the fact that you’re talking about getting rid of like the classification for nuisance in a time in which we have seen these random black bodies be strung up down south.”
WATCH:
“Also, seemingly at a time in which you’re back in office because what you do is you embolden the hate,” Crockett later claimed. “You embolden everybody to take off their hoods. That is what he has done. He is the one that is producing this violence.”
Two men, one black, one white, were found hanging from trees within hours of each other in Mississippi in September, the Clarion-Ledger reported. An autopsy determined that 21-year-old Demartravion Reed, a black Delta State University student who went by “Trey,” committed suicide, according to The Associated Press.
