Three incidents show that the US Congress is nothing Henry Clay would recognize.

First, three black men carjacked Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX), a member of the Hispanic Congressional Caucus. Rep. Cuellar gave them the car, admitting that though he has a “black belt,” it would do him no good against men with firearms. Police soon recovered his car. He says we must support law enforcement. However, he voted for the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act to “end racial, religious, and discriminatory profiling” and also supported more federal oversight of the police, including an increase of more than $17.5 million for the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice in 2021.

Carjackings in Washington DC are up more than 100 percent from last year. Another representative, Angie Craig (D-MN) was assaulted this year. A black homeless man eventually pled guilty to the assault. She also supported the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.

The second incident was the farce of Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) speaking in Congress.

In a hearing on a proposed impeachment of President Joe Biden, she switched to former president Donald Trump and said that he had been storing classified documents in the “s****er.” She defended this because she needed to “bring it,” and said it was an “emotional” moment. She says many people thanked her and said they were tired of representatives “kind of sitting back quietly.” Journalists evidently agree.

CNN called it “passionate” and gave her a fawning interview. “Y’all are a**holes,” she said of Republicans in an interview with the black website TheGrio. The Dallas Observer said that this “obliterated” the GOP. Journalists, activists, entertainers and other such types also loved the speech.

WOW. Rep. Jasmine Crockett woke up and chose to end the Republicans’ baseless impeachment inquiry with a single speech.
