Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) said Monday that she believes Democrats need to “punch” opponents to win elections in Texas, especially Republican politicians like Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), who she said needs to be “knocked over the head, like hard.”
Crockett made the pugilistic remarks during an interview with NBC DFW, despite being warned by Attorney General Pam Bondi on Sunday to temper her inflammatory rhetoric.
When asked “how do you win elections in Texas as a Democrat? What do you do? Especially statewide,” Crockett, wearing a bright yellow pantsuit, responded “I think that you punch, I think you punch. I think you’re ok with — you’re ok with punching.”
She continued to use the violent imagery, targeting Senator Cruz specifically.
“But, like, it’s Ted Cruuuz. I mean, like, this dude has to be knocked over the head, like, hard, right?” Crockett declared. “Like, there is no niceties with him, like, at all. Like, you go clean off on him, right?”

Attorney General Pam Bondi had previously warned Crockett to “tread very carefully” during an interview on Fox’s “Sunday Morning Futures.” Crockett, who apparently leases a Tesla luxury sports sedan herself, has become a particularly aggressive campaigner against the E-car company.
During a one hour Indivisible call on Wednesday, the Texas congresswoman had told the anti-Tesla activists that March 29 is her birthday, and “all I want to see happen on my birthday is for Elon to be taken down—yes!”
“Now you have this Congresswoman Crockett who is calling for attacks on Elon Musk on her birthday. Let’s take him out on my birthday, she said. Yet she turns and says, oh, I’m not calling for violence,” Bondi said.
“She is an elected public official, so she needs to tread very carefully because nothing will happen to Elon Musk, and we are going to fight to protect all the Tesla owners throughout this country,” added Bondi, who has labeled the violent attacks against Tesla “domestic terrorism.”
“Domestic terrorism is going to come to a stop in our country,” Bondi said.
During an appearance on MSNBC later Sunday, host Alex Witt asked for her reaction to Bondi’s comments.
“I have never promoted violence whatsoever, yet I’ve also never made excuse for those violent actors such as the ones on January 6,” Crockett said, in reference to President Donald Trump’s pardons for all J6ers.
“So Pam Bondi, if you have an issue with terrorism, maybe you should talk to your boss about locking back up those guys that he let out that participated in January 6.”
Left-wing organizers have planned a “global day of action” to “Take Down” Tesla on March 29, aiming for protests at 277 locations in the U.S. and 500 Tesla locations around the world.
“Let’s send these techno-fascists, broligarchs and old fashioned Nazis a message loud and clear. NO WAY,” a #TeslaTakedown organizer posted on the lefty platform Bluesky.
“This is a nonviolent protest that they’re calling for,” Crockett said during her MSNBC appearance. “One of the things that I told people to do is make sure you are adhering to the laws in your area. Make sure you know what it looks like to protest and to be able to raise your voices and to exercise your constitutional right to free speech.”
It remains to be seen whether the thousands of anti-Musk radicals who make up the “Take Down Tesla” movement will have the self restraint to protest nonviolently. Democrat politicians like Crocket are well aware that their allies on left have a long history of holding “peaceful protests” that evolve into violent riots at nightfall, as was seen repeatedly during the 2020 George Floyd protests. So their calls for “peaceful protest” should be taken with a grain of salt.
Hilarious how she turns on her ghetto black speak for the cameras.
Painful to watch.
She’s the Poster Child of how our public schools have failed, on many levels.
“I think that you punch, I think you punch. I think you’re ok with — you’re ok with punching.”
You’re punching WAY above your lightweight limit, skanky girl. Crawl back into your slimy, dark sewer, lowlife leftist trash.
“But, like, it’s Ted Cruuuz. I mean, like, this dude has to be knocked over the head, like, hard, right?” Crockett declared. “Like, there is no niceties with him, like, at all. Like, you go clean off on him, right?” Seven likes in your sentence Jasmine, but you DON’T like Ted?
Jasmine Crockett Persian or Arab maybe mixed her law firm works Pro Bono for black lives matter.
A pompous bi**h if there ever was on using the system to damage it.
Sooner or later, Jazzy will be getting more than she bargained for.
Give Bondi a break the democrats created a massive mess and it will take time
That’s because they’re of their father satan.
Pronto.
Only in Ebonics.
She’s larping the ghetto thug thing
I read her family is worth $30 million and she is the product of pricey private schools
“Give Bondi a break the democrats created a massive mess and it will take time”
Perhaps I am being unfair. The rest of Trump’s government is rolling, Bondi seems to be nothing more than a talking head. Maybe I expect too much.
I think you misunderstand Jane. Crockett is educated. Her manner of speaking is fake. She has been coached to act like a ghetto rat and talk like one too. There is video of her speaking the King’s English when she was first elected. I don’t understand why that isn’t a big deal because that gal is a complete phony. Yet, republican politicians won’t touch that or even mention it.
LOW CLASS GHETTO GAL.
She BETTER START DOING !
No worries. Pam is good at issuing strongly worded statements. She like a Gowdy in the drag.
“No worries. Pam is good at issuing strongly worded statements. She like a Gowdy in the drag.”
That’s my concern.
BTTT
Female version of Trey Gowdy...
Bondi should arrest and prosecute this ghetto trash. Until the Republicans actually prosecute and jail these violent Democrats they will continue their violent ways. The only way they were stopped in 1861 was to go to war with them when they started a fight.
Republicans you can’t make nice with these people, they hate you. They may look you in the eye in congress and call you friend but in their heart they despise your very existence. Stop trying to ingratiate yourselves to these animals. Marxist only understand one thing, force. Arrest and prosecute when they instigate violence or commit violence, regardless of their position in life.
“But, like, it’s Ted Cruuuz. I mean, like, this dude has to be knocked over the head, like, hard, right?” Crockett declared. “Like, there is no niceties with him, like, at all. Like, you go clean off on him, right?”
Another simpleton who can’t get through one sentence without using the word “like” 15 times.
“Bondi will just send a “strongly worded letter”.
I’m starting to think that Bondi is more talk and less action. I hope I’m wrong.
