From the New York Post: Liberal firebrand Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) took almost $400,000 from political action committees, despite claiming otherwise, documents seen by The Post reveal.
A 2020 tweet sent by the 44-year-old congresswoman — recently blasted for referring to disabled Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, who uses a wheelchair, as “Hot Wheels” — claimed she had accepted “zero dollars” from corporate PACs while her opposition had taken $192,000.
However, campaign finance disclosure data for the period between July 5 and Dec. 31, 2020, show a different picture. Disclosures from when she ran for state representative of District 100 in the Dallas area show 22 different entries from donors described as PACs, giving between $500 and $5,000 to her campaign.
They include telecom company AT&T, various teaching associations, a wholesale beer PAC, a Texas trial lawyers PAC and others.
On July 10, 2020, Crockett had posted the following, slamming her opponent, and claiming she accepted ZERO special interest and PAC money.

The Opposition: $191,982.61 ❌
Jasmine Crockett: $0.00 ✅

According to public records, since 2022, Crockett has raked in over $370,000 in federal contributions from PACs representing corporations or business associations, including pharmaceutical giants AbbVie and Gilead Sciences, financial services companies BlackRock and Goldman Sachs, major defense contractors including Lockheed Martin and RTX, and brands including McDonald’s, Home Depot, CVS, Verizon and Toyota.
Crockett has also reportedly been the recipient of some lavish trips, including one to Qatar in February 2023, just one month after being sworn in to the U.S. Congress. During her trip to Qatar, Crockett stayed at the luxurious Waldorf Astoria Lusail Doha, a five-star waterfront resort. The trip, which cost about $17,500, was paid for by the US Qatar Business Council, which has ties to the pro-Hamas Qatari government.
Also in 2023, Crockett reportedly went on multiple “cultural exchange trips” which were paid for by the Indian and Emirati governments.

During a podcast appearance February, Crockett raged against President Trump and brazenly declared she is rooting for Canada and Mexico instead of the United States.
CONGRESSWOMAN JASMINE CROCKETT (D-TX): The fact I am rooting for Canada and Mexico a lot is really wild. But, they are the ones speaking truth to power. They see what it is. They’re not messing with the Mar-a-Lago regime. Y’all knew who he was when y’all elected him. pic.twitter.com/fNmU3MGZF8
