Rep. Jasmine Crockett on The View: Juneteenth, Justice & Calling Out GOP Lies - Rep. Jasmine Crockett



On The View, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) breaks it all down — from the GOP’s obsession with distraction politics to the very real threats facing democracy today. She connects the dots on Juneteenth, civil rights rollbacks, political violence, and how Trump’s reckless leadership fans the flames of hate and division. From calling out hypocrisy to defending the Constitution, Rep. Crockett shows why she’s one of the fiercest voices in Congress right now. - Aired on 06/19/2025.

I only wish there were more like her - and I wish she was my Rep. I may be in New York, but I have Stefanik.

I'm grateful that she's speaking out and getting publicity because of it. She's educating voters to what they should expect from their representatives.
