From the Daily Caller: Democratic Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett went on a racial rant against Republicans Wednesday during a House Oversight Committee hearing, stating that Black Americans didn’t “ask to be here.”
The House Oversight Committee held a full markup hearing to consider pieces of legislation, including the Republican-led H.R. 8706, also known as the Dismantle DEI Act. During the hearing, Crockett claimed that Republicans had misused words like “oppression,” stating they didn’t understand what the word meant because they were white.
“It’s because you can then misuse words like oppression. There has been no oppression for the white man in this country. You tell me which white men were dragged out of their homes. You tell me which one of them got dragged all the way across an ocean and told that ‘You are going to go and work. We are going to steal your wives. We are going to rape your wives.’ That didn’t happen. That is oppression,” Crockett said.
Her wild tirade continued: “We didn’t ask to be here. We’re not the same migrants that y’all constantly come up against. We didn’t run away from home. We were stolen. So yeah, we are going to sit here and be offended when you want to sit here and act like and don’t let it escape you that it is white men on this side of the aisle telling us people of color on this side of the aisle that y’all are the ones being oppressed. That y’all are the ones that are being harmed.”

On social media Wendesday, Crockett complained, “Republicans are advancing a bill that would fire all government workers – including Veterans – from offices related to diversity, equity, and inclusion, banning them from being reassigned.”
Today in Oversight:
Republicans are advancing a bill that would fire all government workers – including Veterans – from offices related to diversity, equity, and inclusion, banning them from being reassigned.
How does firing qualified workers and Veterans improve efficiency?

She also celebrated “Trans Day of Remembrance.”
Today is Trans Day of Remembrance—a day honoring trans people who’ve died from anti-trans violence. Too often, their stories are erased.
I’m proud to be an original cosponsor designating Nov. 20th as Transgender Day of Remembrance & stands against violence. We won’t forget you. pic.twitter.com/P1FpKa6T9L

Someone needs to tell Jasmine Crockett that no one dragged her across an ocean.

Crockett is free to leave at anytime. She ain’t being held hostage. You don’t like it here leave but you don’t get to throw a tantrum like a 2 year old over 💩 that happened hundreds of years before we were all born.
