In a fiery and unapologetic speech, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett took center stage, delivering a scathing critique of two of America’s most controversial figures—Elon Musk and Donald Trump. With a blend of sharp wit, biting sarcasm, and undeniable facts, Crockett dismantled their public personas, exposing what she called their hypocrisy, greed, and incompetence.
Calling Out Musk’s Hypocrisy
Crockett did not hold back in her assessment of Elon Musk, the billionaire tech mogul often hailed as a genius. She pointed out Musk’s failure to manage his own businesses effectively, citing issues such as Tesla’s safety concerns, Twitter’s chaotic transformation into “X,” and his alleged market manipulation through Dogecoin.
She reminded everyone that Musk, despite positioning himself as a champion of free speech and innovation, had actively shut down funding for crucial organizations and agencies. She accused him of leveraging his wealth and influence to push political narratives that suited his interests, rather than those of the public.
Furthermore, she ridiculed his claims about the U.S. government allegedly sending condoms to Gaza—a statement she dismissed as baseless propaganda. Musk, she argued, had turned misinformation into an art form, using his platform to spread conspiracy theories while dodging accountability for his own actions.
Trump’s Never-Ending Cycle of Failure
Turning her attention to Donald Trump, Crockett delivered a brutal analysis of his long history of failed business ventures, including Trump Steaks, Trump University, and Trump Vodka. She mockingly highlighted his ability to bankrupt a casino—an industry where people willingly hand over their money—suggesting that his business acumen was anything but impressive.
She also called out his continued obsession with the 2020 election, likening his refusal to accept defeat to a never-ending episode of Groundhog Day, where he learns nothing and simply repeats the same grievances over and over. In her words, Trump was a “walking meme factory,” whose public appearances provided endless content for late-night comedy.
The Power Grab and Lack of Oversight
Beyond the personal jabs, Crockett made serious points about governance. She criticized the current political climate, where unelected individuals like Musk wield enormous influence over federal funds and policies without proper oversight. She questioned why Musk, a private tech mogul, was given access to sensitive government operations, including financial systems managing trillions of dollars.
She also took aim at Trump’s allies in Congress, accusing them of relinquishing their constitutional responsibilities in favor of political theatrics. While Republicans postured about government waste and fraud, she argued, they failed to scrutinize the real beneficiaries—billionaires like Musk who profit immensely from government contracts and subsidies.
Exposing the Free Speech Grift
Crockett was particularly scathing in her critique of Musk’s self-proclaimed defense of free speech. She pointed out the irony of Musk portraying himself as a champion of open dialogue while simultaneously banning and silencing critics on his own platform. “Free speech for him, sure, but everyone else? Not so much,” she quipped.
She also addressed the cultural war distractions that both Musk and Trump frequently employ. By drawing attention to controversial or absurd issues, such as the alleged condom shipments, they shift focus from real crises like economic inequality, workers’ rights, and government accountability. In doing so, they maintain their grip on public discourse while avoiding substantive debate on their own failures.
Musk and Trump’s Common Playbook
According to Crockett, Musk and Trump share a similar strategy: create chaos, blame their opponents, and pretend to be visionaries. She accused them of breaking things—be it social media, democratic institutions, or businesses—only to blame progressives for the damage. Their playbook, she argued, was predictable yet dangerously effective.
She painted Musk as a “Silicon Valley snake oil salesman” who uses technological jargon to disguise his own incompetence, while portraying Trump as a grifter who built an empire on deception. Both, in her view, are more interested in self-enrichment than the well-being of the American people.
Crockett’s Mic Drop Moment
As her speech wrapped up, Crockett left little doubt about her stance. She expressed her personal desire to see Musk held accountable, particularly on March 29th—her birthday—hinting at her determination to ensure his downfall.
Her powerful delivery resonated with many, leaving Musk and Trump scrambling for damage control. Musk, no doubt, was already crafting his next tweet in a desperate attempt to change the narrative, while Trump likely pondered whether he could sue her for speaking the truth.
Crockett’s remarks were more than just a political roast—they were a call to action. She exposed the absurdity of these so-called leaders and reminded the public that their influence is not inevitable. By pulling back the curtain on their distractions and deceptions, she empowered people to challenge the narratives that have allowed figures like Musk and Trump to dominate the national conversation for far too long.
