Jasmine Crockett Tears Into MAGA Rhetoric Following Kirk Death: ‘I Am Going On Facts’
HuffPost
The Texas Democrat slammed conservatives Friday who "immediately" blamed Democrats for the right-wing activist's death.
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) is tearing into conservatives who “immediately” blamed Democrats for the death of Charlie Kirk, the right-wing activist and President Donald Trump ally who was fatally shot Wednesday at Utah Valley University.
Crockett condemned the partisan rhetoric during an appearance on “The Breakfast Club.”
“I hate that some of my colleagues on the other side of the aisle immediately came out and they were like, ‘Oh, you know, this is on the Democrats,’” Crockett said Friday. “Like, we don’t even know who did what. And ya’ll are like, ‘This is on the Democrats.’”
Numerous conservatives have argued that Democrats and the media are to blame for Kirk’s death. Fox News host Jesse Watters told his viewers that “they” are “at war with us,” while Trump directly accused “the radical left” during an Oval Office address on Wednesday.
“I mean obviously, the first thing that anybody would say, and you didn’t have any Democrat that went out there and said otherwise, is, ‘We’re denouncing political violence,’” Crockett said Friday, adding that it hasn’t even been confirmed that Kirk’s killing was political.
