Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett posted on X, calling the Supreme Court racist and corrupt over its voting rights decisions. She made the comments shortly after losing her election. The post quickly sparked strong pushback online, with many users arguing about race, gerrymandering, and the Court’s rulings.
In the video clip, Rep. Jasmine Crockett appears at a congressional hearing desk, speaking intently into a microphone while gesturing with her hands. She criticizes the Supreme Court for what she describes as attacks on voting rights and favoring a “wannabe king.” She ends by declaring, “This Court is racist, corrupt… and the American people deserve better.”
The post uses the same words as the video. The clip shows only her talking, with no court scenes, other people, or anything before or after. It’s not clear which specific Supreme Court ruling she’s talking about or exactly where the video was recorded.
Online Responses to the Texas Congresswoman’s Statement
Many users focused on her recent election loss and celebrated her departure from Congress. “Jasmine, thank you for proving that firing you was the best thing your constituents have ever done for America,” one commenter wrote.
Another added, “I’M SO HAPPY that we will Never Ever have to See You or Hear Your NASTY RACIST [expletive] AGAIN.”
Other users pushed back against her claims about the Supreme Court and race. “So…the Supreme Court is racist…but establishing voting districts based on race isn’t!” one wrote. “The Supreme Court enforcing the Constitution isn’t ‘racist.’ Your skin-color quotas are,” another stated.
Several commenters accused her of promoting division, with one saying, “Democrats have always hated black people, except in election years,” and another describing her approach as “a cancer that seeks to label, divide, and tear down Western institutions.”
The clip has become part of a larger online debate over the Supreme Court’s voting-rights decisions and the outcomes of recent congressional races. Discussion continues in the replies on X.
