Jasmine Crockett Faces Censure Over 'Hot Wheels' Comment

Dallas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett is facing backlash and a possible censure following her remarks referring to Texas Governor Greg Abbott as 'Governor Hot Wheels' during a Human Rights Campaign event. Critics, including Abbott himself, have condemned her comments as divisive and disrespectful, particularly given his disability. Crockett defended her statements, asserting they targeted Abbott's policies rather than his condition, but her past social media activity has led some to question her sincerity. Prominent figures, including President Trump and Texas Senator John Cornyn, have weighed in, with Trump labeling her as 'low-IQ' and Cornyn calling her remarks 'shameful.' The controversy highlights ongoing tensions in Texas politics, with questions about the appropriateness of political rhetoric surrounding personal conditions. A censure resolution has been proposed by Congressman Randy Weber in response to Crockett's comments.
