Jasmine Crockett TORCHES GOP Fearmongering: “Immigrants Aren’t the Threat — White Supremacists Are.”

In a candid and forceful interview on The Weekend, Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett delivered a scathing critique of the current immigration agenda, calling out what she described as the “most violent, dehumanizing” policies in modern American politics. Crockett’s message was clear: immigrants are not the threat—white supremacists are.

Real-Life Consequences of Fear-Based Policies

Crockett recounted stories from communities across the country, painting a vivid picture of the human cost of aggressive immigration enforcement. She described U.S. citizens detained without warrants, diabetic patients denied access to life-saving medication, and families so terrified by the current climate that they are pulling children out of school.

“We heard the story of a US citizen who was on her way to work… They would not listen and she was taken into custody. We also heard about just the horrific conditions that human beings are being kept in, the unsanitary conditions.”

She detailed the story of a young woman deprived of water and medication during detention, leading to serious medical complications—a stark reminder that the cruelty of these policies is not accidental, but intentional.

Dehumanization as Political Strategy

Crockett drew a direct line between the administration’s rhetoric and the lived experiences of immigrants and communities of color. She explained that fear is at the heart of these policies, with dehumanization serving as the first step toward more sinister outcomes.

“He wants people to go into the shadows. He wants people to hide out the way that they’re doing right now. People are not sending their kids to school. They’re not showing up to work. He is wanting people to be terrified and he only wants his kind of people on the streets.”

She warned that the push to “denaturalize” Americans is not just a legal threat, but a signal to instill fear and drive vulnerable communities further into hiding.

The Real Threat: Homegrown Extremism

Crockett pointed to FBI data showing that homegrown terrorism—particularly from white supremacists—is a much greater threat to public safety than immigration. She challenged the national narrative that paints immigrants as criminals, noting that immigrants have a lower crime rate than white supremacists.

“If that’s the case, let’s talk about the white supremacists and how many of them need to be kicked out of this country because I can guarantee you I can track down more crimes that they’ve committed.”

Children and Families Under Siege

The congresswoman highlighted the devastating impact on children, referencing recent reports of record numbers of immigrant children in detention and the increasing difficulty for families to reunite. She called out the hypocrisy of those who claim to champion “pro-life” values while supporting policies that harm children and families.

“This is the party that says that, you know, they care so much about life until life actually shows up at their front door… It is really so heartbreaking.”

A Call for Unity and Humanity

Crockett ended with a powerful reminder: America’s strength has always come from its willingness to stand with the marginalized, not from succumbing to fear and division. She warned that dehumanization is a slippery slope—one that history has shown can quickly expand to target anyone who doesn’t fit the mold.

“If you study anything about the Nazis, that is where it all starts is the dehumanization. And none of us should be sitting by. Even if we’re not trans, even if we’re not an immigrant, you have to understand that the dehumanization will come in for black folk. It will come in for women. It will come in for everyone.”

Looking Ahead: Senate Ambitions

With speculation swirling about a possible run for the U.S. Senate, Crockett confirmed that data shows she is a serious contender. However, she emphasized that execution, coalition-building, and strategy—not just numbers or pressure—will determine her final decision.

“America’s strength has always come from who we choose to stand with, not who we’re told to fear.”

Conclusion

Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s words serve as a reminder that the true danger lies not with immigrants, but with policies and ideologies that promote fear, division, and dehumanization. As America faces pivotal choices about its future, Crockett calls for unity, compassion, and a recommitment to the values that have always defined the nation at its best.
