<p>Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) reminded the audience on Sunday that she was the real victim of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk&#8217;s rhetoric, explaining to CNN anchor Dana Bash that this was why she could not support the House Resolution condemning his assassination.</p>
<p>Crockett joined Bash on Sunday&#8217;s broadcast of &#8220;State of the Union&#8221; to explain why she&#8217;d voted no — and she went on to equate Kirk with &#8220;confederate relics&#8221; and complaining that not enough white people had voted no along with her.</p>

<p dir="ltr" lang="en">HOLD MY BEER, ILAN: Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) refers to Charlie Kirk as a &#8220;New Age (Confederate) relic&#8221; while explaining her &#8220;no&#8221; vote on the memorial resolution passed by the House. <a href="https://t.co/av4mHQhL6V">pic.twitter.com/av4mHQhL6V</a></p>
<p>— Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) <a href="https://twitter.com/BonillaJL/status/1969762255521632617?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 21, 2025</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Bash raised the topic of the House resolution, noting that Crockett had been among the 58 Democrats who voted no, and asked her about it.</p>
<p>Crockett began by complaining that only two of the &#8220;no&#8221; votes had been from white members of congress, adding, &#8220;honestly that hurts my heart.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The rhetoric that Charlie Kirk continuously put out there was rhetoric that specifically targeted people of color,&#8221; she claimed, and although she gave no evidence to back up that claim, Bash offered no challenge. &#8220;And so it is unfortunate that even our colleagues could not see how harmful his rhetoric was specifically to us. And I can tell you that a month prior to him passing away, he had actually gotten out on his podcast and he was talking negatively about me directly.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;So if there was any way that I was going to honor somebody who decided that they were just going to negatively talk about me and proclaim that I was somehow involved in the great white replacement?&#8221; she continued. &#8220;Yeah, I‘m not honoring that kind of stuff, especially as a civil rights attorney and … knowing that there were people that died, people that were willing to die, that worked to make sure that voices like mine could exist in this place.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;So to me, just like we wanted to make sure that those Confederate relics were taken down, the idea of a new age relic being propped up was something that I just could not subscribe to. And it is unfortunate that more of my colleagues, even on my side of the aisle, could not see the amount of harm that this man was attempting to inflict upon our communities,&#8221; Crockett concluded.</p>
<p>Conservative commentator Scott Jennings fired back at Crockett later in the day, saying, &#8220;Charlie Kirk targeted NOBOBY [sic]. He was not racist in any way.&#8221;</p>

<p dir="ltr" lang="en">🚨 JUST IN: Scott Jennings FIRES BACK at Jasmine Crockett who claimed Charlie Kirk was racist &#8211; and got zero pushback from CNN&#8217;s Dana Bash. <a href="https://t.co/ZeftWo65f9">pic.twitter.com/ZeftWo65f9</a></p>
<p>&#8220;Charlie Kirk targeted NOBOBY. He was not racist in ANY WAY! I&#8217;ve listened to hours and hours and hours and hours…</p>
