Crockett Propulsion: Rising Democrat Star Doesn't Understand How Freedom Of Speech Works

Posted • February 15, 2025: Representative Jasmine Crockett of Texas is filling the ‘leadership’ void in the Democrat Party. She’s quickly becoming the ignorant, racist face of the rudderless faction. Unsurprisingly, her ignorance extends to the U.S. Constitution. She believes ‘hate speech’ is not protected by our First Amendment rights as laid out in the nation’s founding document. Here’s what she had to say during a recent hearing on censorship. “The thing about the Constitution is that it has always been a balancing test. There are limits to this. And right now what we continue to hear from a certain side of the aisle is that there are no limits to this lawlessness. In fact, there are limits, and I can tell you that one of those limits typically is around hate crimes. You may or may not know that when it comes down to it, if somebody decides that they want to send something hateful in, say, the US mail, they can actually go to prison for that—up to 5 years in prison. So yes, there are always going to be limits.”

It’s just as cringe hearing it pour out of her mouth. During a hearing on censorship, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett falsely states that hate speech is not protected by the First Amendment. This level of ignorance about the Constitution should disqualify you from holding office. -- She’s a lawyer too. She’s a lawyer and an elected government official. That’s pretty scary! Thankfully, there was someone present to take her back to grade school. Later, Michael Shellenberger (who is not a lawyer) corrected Congresswoman Crockett (who is a lawyer), explaining that the law she was thinking of applies to criminal threats, not mere hateful speech. -- I like how he just pointed out that a middle schooler grasps this concept but not Crockett. 🤣🤣🤣 What is their oath to uphold the Constitution worth if they don't understand it?
