WHAT A CROCK! Hypocritical Dem Firebrand Blasted for Taking $370K from PACs, Trips Qatar: Report

Crockett may be in some hot water…

According to a New York Post report, Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett took almost $400,000 from political action committees despite claiming otherwise.

In a 2020 tweet, the 44-year-old congresswoman claimed she had accepted “zero dollars” from corporate PACs while her opposition had taken $192,000.

That’s not exactly true. In fact, it’s a lie.

From The New York Post:

However, campaign finance disclosure data for the period between July 5 and Dec. 31, 2020, show a different picture. Disclosures from when she ran for state representative of District 100 in the Dallas area show 22 different entries from donors described as PACs, giving between $500 and $5,000 to her campaign.

They include telecoms company AT&T, various teaching associations, a wholesale beer PAC, a Texas trial lawyers PAC and others.

Prof. Matthew Foster, a lecturer on government at American University, told The Post: “What’s controversial about [PACs] is people fundamentally see it as an issue of buying one’s support.

“Democrats are more sensitive to this. They know people look at their contributions and use them against them. Candidates and campaigns may avoid accepting them because of the optics as the average person fundamentally finds this very icky and sleazy and corrupt. It’s a visceral reaction.

“Clearly [Crockett] thinks that issue is a big deal and a way to resonate with voters — so if what they put out there was false, it’s a great opportunity for the opposition to run on that.”

Crockett, who previously practiced as a lawyer, draws a $174,000 annual salary as a member of the House of Representatives. She appears to have fully embraced traditional PACs in the years since her tweet.

Crockett’s disclosures also show she has received lavish trips while in office — including to Doha, Qatar, at a total cost of about $17,500. The US Qatar Business Council paid for the trip, which has ties to the pro-Hamas Qatari government.
