Firebrand MAGA Congresswoman from Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene pulled no punches when sounding off on Rep. Jasmine Crockett in a fury-filled post on X, accusing her very woke colleague of everything from encouraging terror attacks on Tesla to assaulting a journalist in the halls of the Capitol.
As background, Rep. Crockett has been seen by some, particularly on the right, as an emerging major face of the Democratic Party, particularly as she continues garnering headlines with attention-grabbing rhetoric, such as her recent mockery of Texas Governor Greg Abbott as “Governor Hot Wheels,” a reference to his use of a wheelchair.
In her fiery post on X, one which was made in the evening on Tuesday, March 25, Rep. MTG let loose with a veritable torrent of accusations against Rep. Crockett. Beginning, she noted that the woke congresswoman was making a spectacle of herself by wandering around Congress with a police escort. MTG wrote, “Tonight, I saw an entitled Jasmine Crockett with a new Capitol Police escort walking through the already protected halls of Congress.”
Continuing, MTG referenced an incident in which Rep. Crockett pushed at and tried to grab the phone of an independent journalist who was asking her about her rhetoric regarding Tesla, accusing Crockett of assaulting that journalist. Doing so, Rep. Greene wrote, “This comes, after today, she assaulted an independent journalist who was asking if she condones violence against Tesla.”
Still nowhere near done, Greene then referenced Rep. Crockett’s statement in which the woke representative said that, for her birthday, she wanted people to take action against Tesla as a way of pressuring Elon Musk, comments some on the right took to be a call for violence. MTG wrote, “Crockett recently said her birthday wish was to take down Elon Musk and has fueled domestic terrorism against Tesla, Tesla owners, and Tesla employees.”
Adding to that, Rep. MTG went on to reference an incident in which Crockett threatened to physically attack Sen. Ted Cruz, saying someone should hit him in the head, and her horrid comments about Governor Abbott. Doing so, Greene wrote, “She physically threatened Senator Ted Cruz and shamefully made fun of Gov Abbot being in a wheelchair.”
Then, returning to the matter of Rep. Crockett’s absurd police escort through the Capitol building, MTG blasted Crockett for her vanity and her pretend need for protection, when really it is she who is making the threats. Greene said, “But SHE apparently needs a Capitol police escort to protect her while she made her male staffer carry her designer handbag.”

Concluding, Greene called Rep. Crockett the “face of the Democratic Party” as it tried to find a figurehead in the wake of Joe Biden’s exit and Kamala Harris’s sweeping defeat, something numerous other MAGA personalities have claimed about Crockett as well. MTG said, “Jasmine Crockett is the face of the Democrat party. And rightfully so.”
Posting a video of Crockett’s absurd police escort later on, as a quote tweet of her original post, MTG captioned it by saying, “And here is privileged and entitled Jasmine Crockett today leaving our DOGE Committee hearing on NPR and PBS with her Capitol Police Escort. All while she is fueling domestic terrorism against Tesla, physically threatening Ted Cruz, and making fun of Gov Abbot in a wheel chair.”
