The Worst Democrat in Congress?

Posted on | February 6, 2025 | Comments Off on The Worst Democrat in Congress?

The question mark in the headline is necessary because, of course, the competition for Worst Democrat in Congress is fierce. Ilhan Omar, Jamie Raskin, Eric Swalwell — it’s a tough league. But keep your eye on the representative from the 30th District of Texas, about which Wikipedia says: “With a Cook Partisan Voting Index rating of D+27, it is the most Democratic district in Texas.” If your employer relocated you to Dallas, and you were looking to purchase a residence in the area, I’d advise you to stay as far away from the 30th District as possible. Nothing good ever happens inside a D+27 congressional district.

For the past several years, I’ve been watching CNN (so you don’t have to), but about a week ago, I switched my office TV to Fox News for the first time in recent memory, because the shrieking craziness from CNN had become so intense, even I couldn’t cope with it anymore. Therefore I must thank Jeff Poor of Breitbart for providing a transcript of what Rep. Jamine Crockett said on CNN Monday night:

We right now have a white supremacist that is sitting in the White House. He is backed up by other white supremacists. And if you really want to know who the criminals are in this country, you can Google it.
You don’t have to trust me. But the people that commit 80% of the most violent crimes in this country are white supremacists. Yet, for whatever reason, they sit and they serve at the pleasure of the president. They are the ones that were there on January 6th tearing our democracy down physically. And now, we have them tearing us down right here from within. . . .

This remark was made, by the way, in response to a question from CNN’s Laura Coates about Trump appointing one of his former speechwriters, Darren Beattie, to a job in the State Department. Beattie has a Ph.D. in political science from Duke University and acquired the “white supremacist” label in a guilt-by-aasociation smear after it was learned he had spoken at a meeting of the H.L. Mencken Club. Darren Beattie has never committed any violent crime, which is more than you can say for a lot of Jasmine Crockett’s constituents in the 30th District of Texas.

Anyway, more from Crockett’s CNN interview:

[T]he coddling is for the white boys. That’s what’s happening right now. I am tired of the white tears. Listen, if you are competent, you are not concerned. . . .
So, the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so much harder. . . .
But I got news for them. I don’t care what they do. We will fight to the end to make sure that we get our due because, again, if you want to talk about the people that shouldn’t be in this country, you probably need to look in the mirror, because the last time I checked, the Native Americans who [some are?] ICE have been rounding up or the Puerto Ricans who are absolutely Americans, listen, the only people that came and colonized this place are your ancestors, Trump.

Uh, Trump’s grandfather was an immigrant from Germany who arrived in America in 1885, long after we “colonized this place” which, unfortunately, includes the 30th District of Texas.
