Crockett Pins Shocking Accusation On Trump, GOP

Jasmine Crockett Doubles Down on Extreme Rhetoric at Left-Wing Town Hall

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas is making waves again—this time for endorsing a stunning accusation that Republicans want poor people to die “as quickly as humanly possible.”

The remark came during a far-left town hall hosted by former CNN anchor Jim Acosta. The panel featured leftist celebrities like Rosie O’Donnell, ex-Capitol Police officer Michael Fanone, and former Trump aide-turned-critic Olivia Troye. But it was Rep. Crockett—dubbed a “rising star” in the Democratic Party—who turned heads with her extreme comments.

GOP Medicaid Reforms Spark Liberal Meltdown

The controversy began when Acosta brought up Sen. Joni Ernst’s response to a heckler at a recent Iowa town hall on Medicaid reform. Ernst, R-Iowa, was defending efforts to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse in Medicaid by removing ineligible recipients—such as illegal immigrants and able-bodied individuals who refuse to work.

When interrupted by a left-wing activist yelling “people will die,” Sen. Ernst responded, “We all are going to die.”

Acosta twisted her words, claiming he was “astounded” by the comment. “Isn’t the point of healthcare to postpone that as long as possible?” he asked rhetorically.

That’s when CNN contributor Fanone chimed in with, “Republicans want poor people to die as quickly as humanly possible.” Crockett immediately agreed, saying, “I don’t think that is a glitch, I think that’s part of the design.”

Backlash Mounts as Conservatives Push Back

Crockett’s statement drew loud applause from the progressive crowd—but immediate criticism from conservatives. Sen. Ernst’s office hit back hard, calling the attacks “fearmongering” meant to distract from real reform.

“While Democrats play political games, Sen. Ernst is fighting to protect Iowans by ensuring Medicaid supports the truly needy—not abusers of the system,” her spokesperson said.

The spokesperson added that Ernst remains focused on reducing the burden of taxes and healthcare costs for hardworking Americans—especially seniors on fixed incomes.

Jasmine Crockett’s History of Controversy

Rep. Crockett is no stranger to inflammatory statements. Earlier this year, she faced bipartisan criticism for targeting tech innovator Elon Musk, telling a crowd that she wanted him “taken down” on her birthday. Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi accused her of “threatening lives,” although Crockett later claimed it was “nonviolent” political speech.

She also drew national backlash after mocking Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who uses a wheelchair, by calling him “Governor Hot Wheels.” Though she later walked back the insult, she dismissed the outrage as a “distraction”—a term many found dismissive and tone-deaf.

House Oversight Ambitions Raise Concern

Crockett is reportedly eyeing a leadership role on the powerful House Oversight Committee, which plays a key role in holding the executive branch accountable. With her growing list of controversial remarks, many Americans are questioning whether she is fit to serve in such a position of influence.

She’s also known for coining the vulgar phrase “bleach blonde, bad built, butch body” during a clash with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., which she later trademarked for political merchandise.

A Warning Sign for the Democrat Party?

As the Democrat Party shifts further left, voices like Jasmine Crockett’s are gaining prominence—often at the expense of civil discourse and bipartisan problem-solving. For millions of older Americans concerned about Medicare, border security, economic fairness, and government accountability, the rise of this kind of rhetoric is deeply troubling.
