Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) said on Monday she is tired of criticism from “mediocre white boys,” claiming she had to work “10 times as hard” as others to become a congresswoman.
Crockett’s comments came after she discussed a report that the Trump administration hired Darren Beattie, a former speechwriter in President Donald Trump’s first administration, to the State Department. Beattie wrote on X in October 2024 that “competent white men must be in charge if you want things to work” but that the nation’s ideology is currently “predicated on coddling the feelings of women and minorities.”
