In electing Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) to the House of Representatives, Texas' 30th Congressional District has committed one of the dumbest acts of electoral malfeasance imaginable, and Rep. Crockett seems determined to prove that true.
In the latest such exhibition of her utter classlessness, Rep. Crockett was asked by a reporter what she would say to Elon Musk, given the chance. Her reply was foul and represented conduct unbecoming of a member of Congress. (Warning: profanity.)
Texas Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett caused a social media firestorm after telling Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) chief Elon Musk to "f--- off" in the latest example of her public opposition to the newly formed agency’s push to cut government waste and spending.
"F--- off," Crockett told reporter Joe Gallina outside Capitol Hill on Tuesday when asked what she would tell Musk if she could tell him anything.
Crockett’s reaction immediately drew blowback from conservatives on social media, who took issue with the liberal firebrand’s tone.
"The face of the American left, ladies and gentlemen," conservative account Johnny MAGA posted on X.
Look, I'm no stranger to bad language. Anyone who has military service in their background has heard language that will make the very air turn blue at times. I've been known to pepper my speech with the occasional mockery of people I don't respect, and I don't shy away from the odd F-bomb now and then, especially when reading a story like this. But I'm 1) not a member of Congress, and b) don't do this when speaking publicly. Well, not as a rule.
A member of Congress should maintain a higher standard. And, in any case, she's on the wrong side of this issue anyway - maybe not in Texas's 30th Congressional District, but in the nation as a whole.
A recent poll, amplified by Musk on social media, suggests that a majority of the American people support DOGE's mission.
The Harvard CAPS-Harris poll revealed a majority of Americans support reducing wasteful government spending. Most voters agree there should be a government agency dedicated to efficiency and that DOGE is helping to make major spending cuts, the nonprobability-based poll found.
This isn't the first such display of classlessness and, yes, Richter-scale ignorance from this Texas Democrat.

There is - or, at least, there should be - a certain level of decorum expected from our elected representatives. Oh, yes, President Trump uses an off-color word now and then, but not quite at this level, and usually in an expression of good humor, not outright hatred. Jasmine Crockett reveals herself daily to be not only uninformed, not only catastrophically rude, but also lacking in class. That may not be a constitutional requirement to serve in the House of Representatives, but it may rate a censure from that body for conduct unbecoming.
Jasmine Crockett reminds me of the idiots at high school and college graduations, events at which a little decorum is expected, who scream and yell like they're at a sportsball game. No respect for the norms, no respect for the people around them. Just plain no respect, for themselves or anyone else.
Crockett’s office did not respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.
You don't say.
Despite the lies from the leftist media, President Donald Trump and his administration were given a mandate to take a chainsaw to the federal government, and the American people have his back.
