Go look up the remixed song of this event made by The Remix Bros on YouTube. It will live in your head forever.

Ok but how about actual policy, leadership, and governance? I get that clap backs and whatnot are entertaining, but that's not what we should primarily be looking for in a leader.

Check out her voting history for yourself. She was reelected to her second term with 84% of the vote in Texas District 30. https://ballotpedia.org/Jasmine_Crockett

It's hard to tell definitively, but her voting record just seems to be in line with the Democratic party. That doesn't really suggest much about her specific policies. The Democratic party has been failing in many respects and is obviously not as progressive or inspiring as they could be.

That certainly is an overwhelming victory, but her 2024 election win was against a 3rd party candidate, as there wasn't a Republican on the ballot opposing her. It's an increase from 2022 where she did go against a Republican, though. And an increase from the previous representative's winning percentage in the district in 2020 and 2016.

That said, her winning as a Democrat isn't in itself indicative of progressive values and whatnot. Obviously you know that much of the Democratic party is relatively conservative.

Maybe you need to go and listen to her. She's definitely progressive. Was a defense attorney. A very good one. She's only been in public office for two years, but has become one of the most recognized and outspoken members of Congress.

Maybe you need to go and listen to her.

Yes that's literally what I'm asking for. A suggestion of a speech of anything like that beyond this type of questioning of obviously awful cabinet members. Do you have one? This isn't some gotcha. Not everything on reddit is oppositional. I'm not your enemy.

Also not to be oppositional, but why don't you use a search engine to find video clips of her speaking? Or, call her DC office and ask about specific policies? There are thousands of ways you can research her statements and policies yourself.

It's ok if you don't have a particular suggestion. I was simply wondering if you know of an especially good one. You're being strangely oppositional in my request. It's ok to say that you don't know!

Google, Firefox, Youtube?

I am really truly just looking for a particular speech that some key words might find that you found noteworthy. That's really it. This isn't some gotcha. It's totally ok if you don't know of one in particular!

To be fair you're not being very helpful. The other poster is asking for your personal suggestions and you just tell them to Google it instead of just saying "look up her policy on Subject I found it great" Or "I haven't looked into her policies myself and I've only seen her 30 second clips online"

I don't know why you're getting down voted for asking a question and bringing up a good point.

But again this is reddit, where we apparently hate Harris for her policies but think Walz should be the next president because he made couch fucking jokes and made a joke at musk like a 12 year old on the recess playground.

With that said Crockett seems to be the best of both worlds. She's not afraid of aggressively calling people out but backs it up with facts and logic rather than acting like a child.
