I checked: this is quite an accomplishment. Rep. Crockett has been named an Ethics Alarms Incompetent Elected Official of the Month twice within three months; just think of all the idiots in Congress we have endured who still couldn’t achieve that. Jasmine is clearly something special, as the rapidity with which she has accumulated a provocative EA dossier will attest: she’s been serving barely two years, and already has made it clear that she is an arrogant, opinionated, loud-mouth idiot who is under the delusion that she is worth listening to. Do you want evidence that the Democratic Party is in deep, deep trouble? Here it is: Crockett is regarded as a “rising star.” Yikes.

This rising star has been so prolific in making stupid and offensive statements that she is already edging into Julie Principle territory, meaning that we have ample reason to believe that saying dumb things is what she does, she can’t help it, and it is boring and futile to keep complaining about it.

Here is her current prize-winner: on ABC News, Crockett was asked, “President Trump says he likes the idea of giving some of the savings from DOGE back to Americans as kind of a dividend. Would you support that?”

Crockett’s response: “No. We are not in the business of giving out money, and honestly, I don’t know what $5,000 will do for you.”

To state the obvious, if we know anything from the DOGE bulletins so far, the United States government is absolutely “in the business of giving out money,” and the money being given out to, among others, illegal immigrants, DEI projects and foreign governments, comes directly from the pockets of taxpayers. As for her jaw-dropping last sentence, it should become the slogan of whoever runs against Crockett in 2026.

For reasons unexplained, the 40-something Congresswoman has a net worth of over 9 million dollars and owns a $2 million townhouse in Dallas, Texas, a $1.5 million loft in Austin and a $1.5 million lakefront cabin in Galveston, Texas. I suppose $5,000 doesn’t mean much to high-rollers like her, but to the vast, vast majority of Americans, an extra five grand comes in extremely handy.

The idea of using part of the DOGE savings to give back to taxpayers some of their money the government wasted is a wise good faith policy as well as a symbol of contrition. Of course most of the money has to be used to both end budget deficits and pay down the debt, but if the public never sees any benefits of the belt-tightening accrue directly to them, the effort will be politically impossible to sustain. And, to state what should be obvious to anyone smarter than Crockett, if $5,000 means so little to the average household, it must mean even less to the bloated Federal government…as this X wag deftly notes,

Bingo!

Crockett is definitely the leader that 2025 Democrats deserve. We should all wish her well in the pursuit of that goal.
