DOGE caused a top Democrat to have this ugly public meltdown
Three Key Takeaways:
- Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) had a public meltdown during a House subcommittee hearing, launching a profanity-filled rant against the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and Republicans for proposing cuts to NPR and PBS funding.
- Crockett’s outburst included attacks on the DOGE agenda, accusing it of harming public safety and free speech, while defending NPR and PBS’s role in promoting liberal viewpoints and criticizing conservative media like Fox News.
- Donald Trump supported the effort to defund NPR and PBS, calling them biased platforms aligned with the “Radical Left” and urging Republicans to seize the opportunity to cut off taxpayer funding for these media outlets.
The Washington, D.C. Swamp is under attack like never before.
Democrat-controlled institutions are in Trump’s crosshairs.
And DOGE caused a top Democrat to have this ugly public meltdown.
Jasmine Crockett throws a temper tantrum over potential NPR cuts
National Public Radio (NPR) and PBS are in the crosshairs of Tesla CEO Elon Musk and his team at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Taxpayers fork over hundreds of millions of dollars every year through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to help fund these left-wing outlets.
Federal funding is going to help prop up two outlets that push Democrat talking points and attack Republicans.
The House Oversight Committee’s Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency (DOGE) held a hearing titled “Anti-American Airwaves: Holding the Heads of NPR and PBS Accountable.”
Republicans on the subcommittee grilled NPR CEO Katherine Maher and President Paula Kerger about their bias against conservatives during the hearing.
Subcommittee Democrats were fuming that cuts were being proposed to PBS and NPR’s federal funding.
The most dangerous place to be in Washington, D.C. is between Representative Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) and a camera.
Crockett has tried to build her political profile by delivering on the demand from the Democrat base for vulgar remarks and childish antics opposing the Trump agenda.
She went on a profanity-laced rant at Republicans during the subcommittee hearing.
“The DOGE agenda isn’t about government efficiency, it’s about breeding corruption at the expense of the safety of the American people, particularly Americans living in rural or remote parts of the country,” Crockett raved. “They don’t care about public safety. They don’t care about emergency management and they don’t care about free speech, all of which are harming American people.”
Crockett is parroting the latest Democrat talking point against DOGE that claims eliminating the job of any pencil pusher in the Swamp will put lives at risk.
She had a rare moment of honesty when she admitted that she believed free speech and public safety are harming the public.
“To be clear, free speech is not about whatever it is that y’all want somebody to say, and the idea that you want to shut down everybody that is not Fox News is bulls***,” Crockett ranted. “We need to stop playing, because that’s what you all are doing here, you don’t want to hear the opinions of anybody else.”
Crockett, who was first elected in 2022, has become a potential 2028 Presidential contender for Democrats based on her obnoxious behavior.
Trump supports efforts to defund NPR and PBS
President Donald Trump blasted NPR and PBS and called for them to be defunded the day after the subcommittee hearing.
“NPR and PBS, two horrible and completely biased platforms (Networks!), should be DEFUNDED by Congress, IMMEDIATELY,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Republicans, don’t miss this opportunity to rid our Country of this giant SCAM, both being arms of the Radical Left Democrat Party. JUST SAY NO AND, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”
Subcommittee chairwoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) had a blunt warning for NPR and PBS at the hearing.
“Every single day, private businesses operate without government funding,” Greene said. “You all can hate us on your own dime.”
NPR and PBS can push their left-wing agenda without the hard-earned money of taxpayers.
