Hilarity ensues"},"content":{"rendered":"

Good day all. Recently, the Supreme Court ruled that Texas can use their new congressional maps for the 2026 midterms. One of the results of this decision is that Jasmine Crockett was moved out of her rotten district and into one where she would actually have to compete against another Democrat.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

Since Crockett is not known for her constituent services, she decided that it was time to go for a promotion. She announced that she is going to run for the Senate seat currently held by RINO John Cornyn. Here announcement was greeted by jokes and laughter at her expense. Here are the details from Fox News<\/b><\/a>:<\/p>\n

Conservative leaders and commentators on X mocked progressive firebrand Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, for launching a last-minute Senate campaign<\/a> in red Texas, with one saying she is “about to learn the hard way that most Texans are very different.” <\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Right off the bat, there is no guarantee that if Crockett wins the Democrat primaries, that she will be facing the RINO Cornyn. John Cornyn has angered a lot of people in Texas and he is facing primary challengers. The one with the best shot is the current Texas attorney general, Ken Paxton. If he wins the Republican primary and faces Crockett, the only question will be how badly she will lose.<\/p>\n

After months of speculation whether she would enter the race, Crockett announced her bid on Monday. In a launch speech to supporters in Dallas, she framed her candidacy as a move to stand up against President Donald Trump<\/a>. <\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I don\u2019t think Crockett, who is a classic Karen, really understands what the rest of the state thinks of both President Trump and Jasmine Crockett. In general, they like him and those who know Crockett think she needs to go back to her old job.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott<\/a> posted on X that he is “looking forward to watching the circus– and KEEPING the US Senate seat red.” <\/b><\/p>\n

“Jasmine Crockett about to learn the hard way that most Texans are very different from her district, her base & her values.\u201d <\/b><\/p>\n

Wait, Crockett has values? Well she does value herself and her personal comfort, but I don\u2019t think that\u2019s what Governor Abbott was speaking about.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019ll be pummeled for her progressive socialist agenda & get crushed by the Republican nominee for Senate. The Texas political cemetery is filled with blow hards like her who have no idea what it\u2019s like to run statewide,” said the governor.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

“On the bright side for her, maybe she\u2019ll end up with a job on The View,” he added. <\/b><\/p>\n

Oh I think she would fit right in.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Republican Party posted on its official X page, commenting, “Low-IQ Jasmine Crockett is officially running in Texas for U.S. Senate. This is really who the Democrats are clearing the field for.”<\/b><\/p>\n

This probably refers to the recent withdrawal from from the Democrat Senate primary of Colin Allred. He announced he was pulling out just before Crockett announced she was running. That makes me wonder if he was encouraged to withdraw by the DNC. In any case Crockett\u2019s announcement was fodder for the GOP humor mill.<\/p>\n

Popular X account End Wokeness posted, “I can’t stop laughing. This is Jasmine Crockett’s campaign launch video,” reposting the 42-second ad, which features sound bites of Trump criticizing Crockett. <\/b><\/p>\n

Conservative podcaster Matt Walsh wrote, “I never thought I\u2019d say this but I agree with every word of this Jasmine Crockett ad.” <\/b><\/p>\n

Conservative commentator Eric Daugherty also commented on the ad, saying that Crockett “royally SCREWED UP by making her campaign launch video Donald Trump calling her \u2018low IQ\u2019 on repeat, while she awkwardly stares into the camera,” because “Trump won Texas<\/a> by 14 points.” <\/b><\/p>\n

No one ever accused Jasmine Crockett of being a deep thinker. Needless to say, The Democrats are trying, desperately, to pump up Crockett.<\/p>\n

Progressive Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., wrote, “My sister in service @JasmineForUS is a relentless fighter and a brilliant legal mind. She is exactly the kind of authentic, bold, effective leader this moment demands, the people deserve, and the Senate needs. Let\u2019s go.” <\/b><\/p>\n
