Even the Liberal Media Can’t Whitewash Jasmine Crockett’s Toxic Narcissism
30th July 2025
Jasmine Crockett, the trash-talking Democratic congresswoman from Texas, has become a genuine celebrity among the handful of troubled souls who still watch MSNBC and think Stephen Colbert is actually funny. They love her because she’s loud and obnoxious, but rather than disrupting their peaceful Sunday brunch with the girls, Crockett is disrupting a Democratic establishment that is too polite and insufficiently committed to the anti-Trump resistance. She talks like a deranged MSNBC fan—minus the affected “sassy black woman” accent—venting their outrage in a “Liberal Lushes” group chat.
Crockett, 44, has no real accomplishments to speak of, apart from some meaningless awards (and a diploma from an esteemed private high school in St. Louis). She was named “advocate of the year” at the 2025 Webby Awards for using her online platform to amplify her “commitment to social justice.” (She went viral after calling her Republican colleague, Nancy Mace, a “child” during a civil rights hearing.) Crockett is also the star of numerous YouTube videos with “CLAPS BACK” in the title, so there’s that. Whether she’s denouncing Hispanic Trump voters for having a “slave mentality,” or deriding the “white tears” of her critics, Crockett knows how to get attention.
It was only a matter of time before the mainstream media offered to help Crockett burnish her reputation by writing a glowing profile of the potty-mouthed Democrat who fights. On Sunday, the Atlantic published an article that might have accomplished this goal. Alas, even the liberal journalist was repulsed by Crockett’s toxic narcissism. As a sign of how poorly it went, the congresswoman called the Atlantic reporter, Elaine Godfrey, days before the story came out to complain that the journalist had been contacting her colleagues in the House “without telling her first,” and proclaimed that she was “shutting down the profile and revoking all permissions,” which isn’t a thing.
