In an evening packed with big-name Democrats, Crockett's prime time speaking slot signals her well-regard within the party.
U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett used her time on stage to call former President Trump a criminal, stating he has"34 felonies, two impeachments and one porn star to prove it."We're in the midst of our summer membership campaign, and we have until August 25 to raise $5,500. Your contributions are an investment in our election coverage – they help sustain our newsroom, help us plan, and could lead to an increase in freelance writers or photographers.
“The chaos caucus couldn’t elect the speaker, and the Oversight Committee was unhinged,” Crockett said. “As I approached Vice President Harris for our official photo, she turned to me and asked, ‘What’s wrong?’ … I immediately began crying. And the most powerful woman in the world wiped my tears and listened.”
That alliteration was back in style for the closing of Crockett’s speech, where she asked if the country is willing to allow a “vindictive, vile villain violate voters’ vision for a better America?” The line was met with raucous applause and a sly smile from Crockett.
