    I absolutely ADORE Jasmine Crockett!!!!
  • @veracalvin6858
    Someone please enlighten me. If Moses Johnson actually thought aid to Ukraine was "the right thing" why did he personally hold it up for 7 months??? Creating a horrible situation in Ukraine.

    From where I'm sitting in New Zealand, Jasmine Crockett is the business. The US would do well to have more folk, like her, in the halls of government. Smart, articulate, honest and she doesn't suffer fools.

    MTG needs to be removed from congress for interfering with the possibilty of getting any work done.
  • As a black man I will support the guy with 81 years behind him over the guy with 91 criminal charges in front of him.
  • @nancyx6390
    I absolutely love Rep Jasmine Crockett ❤ She does her homework thoroughly 👍

    As a 65-year-old white man. Got to love Ms. J. Crockett, she is a true blessing. 💙💙💙

    Time for Johnson to bring up the bipartisan border vote if he wants to do the right thing.
  • @srl7997
    Jasmine Crockett is a people's politician!! Always love to hear what she has to say.
  • I agree with Rep Crockett. Mike Johnson should have brought these Bills to the floor months ago, and he didn't. They passed overwhelmingly. No credit to Mike Johnson for doing what he should've done months ago.

    Ms. Crockett is one of my favourite players in US politics. I love to see a sharp, brave, articulate, intelligent woman who isn’t afraid to speak out and speak up. Bravo, my dear, from a 73 year old gal who hopes you have a long and glorious career defending democracy.🇨🇦🌻

    Rep Jasmine Crockett always brings receipts. We need more Reps. like her.
  • @howardj602
    As an old white guy who lives in another state than Rep. Crockett. I'm sending her a campaign contribution. What an intelligent and well spoken representatve. Quite a different from the the current crop MAGAt insurrectionists. She has a nice tone in her voice when she educates MTG.

    Never ever seen a member of Congress flip the script on the Republican party!!! Give Jasmine her flowers!!!
