Texas Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett had a meltdown this week over President Donald Trump and called him “a piece of sh*t.”
While speaking at an event hosted by progressive political action group MoveOn, Crockett was praised by the crowd for using an expletive about the sitting president of the United States.
“Listen, Donald Trump is a piece of sh*t, OK?” Crockett said — to cheers. “We know that. Yes, yes! He is, he is! But in a functioning democracy, he still would not be able to get away with this.”
“He’s been able to away with this because the House Republicans are complicit,” Crockett said. “He’s been to get away with this because Senate Republicans are complicit. But most importantly, the courts — especially the Supreme Court — is complicit! … They are the highest court in the land and they have no ethics guardrails. Now you go down to the lower courts, and they do. How much sense does that make? Well, we know that they’re taking money. We have the paper trail. And they refuse to put guardrails on themselves. So it’s time for us to do it for them.”
Crockett also freaked out about the Texas state legislature attempting to redistrict the state in a way that could give Republicans up to 5 seats in the U.S. House.
Crockett said the new map would draw her out of her district.

Republican Gov. Greg Abbott sounded off on Monday morning on House Democrats who fled Texas to deny Republicans a quorum on redistricting efforts.
Abbott has threatened to remove Democratic state legislators from office and prosecute them with felonies after they fled the state. On Sunday, two dozen Texas Democrats flew to Chicago, Illinois, to deny the Republican-controlled legislature the quorum required.
“The derelict Democrat House members must return to Texas and be in attendance when the House reconvenes at 3:00 PM on Monday, August 4, 2025,” Abbott said. “For any member who fails to do so, I will invoke Texas Attorney General Opinion No. KP-0382 to remove the missing Democrats from membership in the Texas House.”
Abbott added the possibility of criminal charges to his own ultimatum, stating that Democrats who solicited or received gifts to assist offset fines incurred by their absence may have committed crimes and “violated bribery laws”.
“I think they face a possibility of facing bribery charges, which is a second-degree felony in Texas,” he added.
“The same could be true for any other person who ‘offers, confers, or agrees to confer’ such funds to fleeing Democrat House members. I will use my full extradition authority to demand the return to Texas of any potential out-of-state felons,” Abbott declared.
Dozens of Texas Democratic state representatives came to Chicago on Sunday night to block the vote. Shortly after Abbott’s statement, the Texas House Democratic Caucus responded simply: “Come and take it.”
To conduct business, at least 100 of the 150-member Texas House must be present, and about 50 Democrats have left. Abbott stated that their commitment to voting as elected state officials is mandatory and “not optional.”
The Texas House is scheduled to reconvene at 3 p.m. on Monday, and Abbott has stated that “derelict Democrat House members must return” by then or face removal from their offices by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.
The Republican AG has already stated that the lawmakers “should be found and arrested no matter where they go.”
Abbott also said a legislator determined to have “forfeited his or her office due to abandonment” can be removed from office under the Texas Constitution, thereby creating a vacancy, which the governor can “swiftly fill” under Article III, Section 13.
Removal from office is not the only threat facing the lawmakers on the run, as Abbott warned that “soliciting funds to evade the fines they will incur under House rules” is potentially a felony.
