Rep. Jasmine Crockett Faces Backlash Over Rhetoric Against Elon Musk, Ted Cruz

Rep. Jasmine Crockett Faces Backlash Over Rhetoric Against Elon Musk, Ted Cruz

AG Pam Bondi warned Crockett to “tread very carefully.”

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) faced significant backlash after she said she wanted Elon Musk to be taken down for her birthday and that Sen. Ted Cruz should be “knocked in the head.”

In normal times, we know phrases like that are hyperbolic, but we don’t live in normal times.

The Democrats made sure we all learned that we should interpret comments like Crockett’s rhetoric as a call for violence.

Thems the rules!!!

Plus, we have seen the radical left vandalize Tesla dealerships and set fire to peoples’ Teslas. It’s disgusting.

Attorney General Pam Bondi thinks Congress will censure Crockett over her comments. She also demanded Crockett apologize and denounce violence:

“I believe she probably will be censured by Congress for saying that,” Bondi said.

“People don’t learn. She’s using her public persona, her public platform, to increase her followers, to increase her significance, and she is threatening lives, safety.”

“She has to apologize immediately and denounce the violence.”

Crockett told MSNBC she’s totally against violence.

Cruz responded with a gif of an iconic scene from The Princess Bride.

Ooooo!

An official reprimand!

That should teach someone who can’t learn.

    The Media Research Center, see above, said, “Can you believe someone this emotionally childish holds public office?”

    Is the MRC that naive or dense? Crockett won with 85% of the vote. Her district is overwhelmingly black and Democrat. Charles Murray and others have, over decades, shown that the average IQ among blacks is lower than that of Whites and Hispanics, and that their propensity for criminal behavior is greater than that of White and Hispanics. Murray, Coming Apart (2021).

    Call those of us who recognize these observable facts racist all you want. The taunts won’t change the truth.

    But these facts answer the MRC’s foolish question.

      The MRC is correct.

      IQ isn’t the problem. The problem is lack of wisdom. Many people with high IQ are fools. Many people with low IQ are wise.

      The leftist media’s the leftist government schools’ brainwashing produces fools.

She has absolute immunity for anything she says in the course of her role as a legislator, on or off the floor. And so do her staffers.

Also, nothing she’s said so far comes even close to being incitement, as carefully defined by the supreme court in order to save the law from being unconstitutional.

    “Ted Cruze needs to be punched.”

    That’s not incitement, Milhouse?

    Sure, sounds like it to me.

      Unfortunately, while Crockett’s words certainly qualify as ‘incitement’ rhetorically (and might well have the effect of encouraging some weak-minded leftists to commit violence, according to SCOTUS they are not considered incitement legally.

      “Ted Cruz needs to be punched” is only criminal ‘incitement’ if she says it to someone in punching range of Ted Cruz.

    in general agreement with you

    except she is looking to incite actions against those she opposes

    she didnt just say “fight” back etc

    she said a punch etc

    and then we cant deny her culture employees violence as is evident by the statistics on violence used …and the excuses made for those actions are now seen as acceptable …”social justice” etc

    The Senators and Representatives shall receive a Compensation for their Services, to be ascertained by Law, and paid out of the Treasury of the United States. They shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.

    More made up BS, Milhouse. The Constitution itself says no such thing. Their immunity is clearly qualified, restricted to their speech while physically in either House and not outside of them. If the authors had intended the immunity to be general, it would not be so qualified and/or they would have explicitly stated the immunity is unqualified and general.

      Especially “Breach of the Peace,” She is advocating violence at a time when violence is occurring.

      Dave,

      Unfortunately SCOTUS in a series of cases beginning in the early 1970s has decided to expand the ‘speech and debate clause’. IMO it is arrogant, judicial activism where the Judiciary cosplays as philosopher king but they did it.

      IOW Mlhouse is pretty accurately describing the current ‘interpretation’ of speech by a member of Congress or their Staff though Crockett is really pushing the limits. IMO if her speech is censured then even under the current interpretation she should be bared from making an immunity claim.

    She has immunity when she’s on the floor of the House. She most certainly doesn’t have immunity outside that venue and can be held responsible for her rhetoric.

    If someone takes what she says and acts on it, then how will you explain that one away?

    Knew this would be here–

    “She has absolute immunity for anything she says in the course of her role as a legislator, on or off the floor. And so do her staffers.

    Also, nothing she’s said so far comes even close to being incitement, as carefully defined by the supreme court in order to save the law from being unconstitutional”

    This is Milhouse. Without fail he will explain how the Democrats open threats are just fine while anyone on the right suggesting those threats are wrong is undermining the very Constitution.

    Then he will shed some crocodile tears and adopt a ‘more in sorry than in anger stance and bemoan how sad it is that the right simply can do nothing to stop the inexorable, inevitable victory of the left –of which he, too, is a foe, right fellow Republicans? Right? He’s not a registered Democrat at all.

    Milhouse is what that Russian, speaking on video about leftist efforts to demoralize their foes, was talking about.

    He wants us despondent and unable to fight back. To think that our only hope rests with creatures like him.

      Unfortunately Milhouse is largely correct in pointing out the current interpretation of the ‘speech and debate clause’ based on a series of SCOTUS rulings. She and her staff, based on the current precedents, are as a practical matter largely immune for speech on or off the floor. IMO the SCOTUS decisions leading to this are not just wrong but an arrogant display of judicial activism that should be overturned. In the meantime though we.are stuck with it. Sucks but true.

        We are only ‘stuck with it’ if we take the route Milhouse gleefully points us to.

        You can’t fight judicial activism by acceding to it.

        Particularly Milhouse type –where Democrats can threaten, attack and kill all while ‘the law’ says it’s just protest or some other innocent exercise of rights and then call the right to task –not for doing what the Dems and the left do— but for questioning it and trying to stop it through ACTUAL Constitutional means.

    Milhouse…. Defending the indefensible every day. At least you are consistent.

    Yet if I came on this site and used a racial epithet for this low life spineless piece of failed abortion, you would be riding my ass all the way to censorship.

“Can you believe someone this emotionally childish holds public office?”

It’s comforting to see that the Stupid Black Woman With A Big Mouth chair passed seamlessly from Cori Bush to Crockett. It’s disturbing when it’s left vacant for too long, as if the universe had developed a vacuum.

I wonder what order of magnitude of public funds her boyfriend is grifting?

CENSORED!!!!

Ooooooooo Scaryyyyyyyy

She is just yet another angry black woman spouting ebonics at the rest of us. Common theme here.

She is monetizing her “public service” like so many others.

Her tough talk seems a ruse. She’s probably afraid of the bogeyman under her bed.

Crockett, Cruz and Musk are all citizens (okay, residents) of the Republic (geez, State) of Texas. We do have the means to handle this as a state issue – the Texas Rangers may investigate and refer for prosecution anyone involved in the types of threats and actions being incited by Crockett. Yesterday, multiple bombs (incendiary devices) were found at Austin’s Tesla dealership.

Around here we have a saying: One Riot, One Ranger – Texas Ranger Captain Bill McDonald, 1900

    Some here in Texas are just residents. But many of us are citizens of the State (Republic) of Texas. I do wish when Texas became a State that it had remained the Republic of Texas.

    Since Crock-o-stuff is a Texan by residency, her threats may well be able to be investigated by the State.

    As to Millhouse’s statement above about what Crock-o-stuff says being protected, he is full of stuff. She only has immunity for her statements when in the Legislature. That is why Ried accused Romney of tax evasion on the Senate Floor but not outside of the Senate. And also, Crock-o-stuff’s calls for violence could be considered a “Breach of the Peace”, therefore leaving her liable for arrest.

Her latest comment: Governor Hot Wheels – referring to Greg Abbott. This female creature (a term used to not offend women) has as much class as a pile of dogdu in my backyard. She is the typical Democrat which is why nothing will be done.
