Crockett just humiliated herself again.
Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, is under heavy fire after a shocking video went viral, showing her making an outrageous claim about law enforcement that many Americans are calling dangerous and reckless.
In the clip, taken from Crockett’s appearance on the “Grounded” podcast, the Democrat congresswoman boldly declared that police officers are not supposed to prevent crime, but simply clean up the mess afterward.
“Let me be clear — law enforcement’s job isn’t to stop crimes before they happen,” Crockett said. “Their role is to investigate and solve crimes after the fact, not necessarily to prevent them in the first place.”
This stunning statement spread like wildfire on social media, drawing sharp criticism from law enforcement veterans, conservative leaders, and everyday Americans who rely on police to keep their communities safe.
Crockett Attacks Trump and Police
Crockett didn’t stop there. During her rant, she attacked President Donald Trump, slamming his strong stance on law and order and criticizing his deployment of the National Guard and federal agencies to restore order during violent riots and unrest in Washington, D.C.
“How is it that we have a government that is hostile towards its people? That’s what it is,” Crockett raged. “We are in the midst of a hostile government takeover, and it is our government that is bringing the hostility.”
Crockett went so far as to accuse Trump’s administration of creating hostility, while downplaying the need for proactive policing and crime prevention.
Her remarks come as violent crime surges in major cities across America — especially in Democrat-run areas — sparking fears among retirees, families, and small business owners who feel abandoned by left-wing politicians.
Conservative Leaders Fire Back
The viral clip was first shared by journalist Nick Sortor, who wrote on X (formerly Twitter):
“Unbelievable! Just when I thought Democrats had hit rock bottom, Jasmine Crockett proves me wrong yet again.”
The backlash was swift and widespread:
- Matt Van Swol, scientist and author, called Crockett’s comment:
“Truly one of the dumbest statements ever made by anyone on planet earth.” - Alexa Henning, deputy chief of staff for Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, blasted Crockett’s ignorance, saying:
“Terrifying how stupid people get into higher office.” - Veteran law enforcement officer Deon Joseph directly refuted her statement:
“Jasmine Crockett is wrong. It is our job to prevent crime. I didn’t sign up to just wait for people to be victimized.”
Even the popular conservative account Libs of TikTok weighed in with a simple but powerful response:
“Ummm what????”
Why It Matters
Crockett’s remarks reveal how far-left Democrats are out of touch with the real needs of the American people.
As crime continues to rise, especially in Democrat-controlled cities, Crockett’s comments strike many as proof that liberals care more about protecting criminals than protecting law-abiding citizens.
Under President Trump, law enforcement received the resources and support needed to reduce violent crime, secure communities, and strengthen border security. Many conservatives now see the 2024 election as a critical turning point to restore law and order before the situation worsens.
Bottom Line
Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s viral comments are a wake-up call for voters.
By claiming police shouldn’t prevent crime, she not only insulted the men and women who risk their lives every day but also exposed the radical mindset driving today’s Democrat Party.
For millions of Americans, especially seniors and families worried about their safety, Crockett’s statement serves as a powerful reminder of why strong, pro-law enforcement leadership is essential.
