Jasmine Crockett Rejects That She Feeds Political Violence

"Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) rejected being responsible for promoting political violence with her rhetoric, insisting it is President Donald Trump and MAGA pushing a culture of violence following the killing of Charlie Kirk. Crockett joined The Breakfast Club radio show on Friday where she rejected accusations from the right and MAGA that Democrats' rhetoric promoted violence against Kirk."

"Host Charlamagne Tha God took a slightly different view of things, admitting that he's seen language from both sides that could potentially incite violence, including referring to Trump as fascist and comparing him to Hitler. I think we all incite whether we think we do or not. And what I mean by that is I've definitely called that regime fascist, he said."

"JASMINE CROCKETT: We've got to talk about what it means when you're running for president or you're running for one of these higher offices and you go out there and you talk about beating people out, you go out there and you say things like, I could shoot somebody in the middle of the street in New York and still win we've got to talk about, like, that is next level. Me disagreeing with you, me calling you, you know, wannabe Hitler, all of those things are not necessarily saying, go out and hurt somebody. But when you're literally telling people at rallies, yeah, beat him up and that kind of stuff, you are promoting a culture of violence so we need to talk about what it looks like when you don't promote a culture of violence."

Rep. Jasmine Crockett denied responsibility for promoting political violence after the killing of Charlie Kirk and blamed President Donald Trump and MAGA for pushing a culture of violence. Crockett appeared on The Breakfast Club and rejected accusations from the right that Democratic rhetoric incited the attack. Host Charlamagne Tha God acknowledged that language from both sides can potentially incite violence and said he has used terms like fascist when referring to the Trump regime. Crockett contrasted name-calling, such as calling someone a "wannabe Hitler," with explicit, rally-level encouragements to physically assault opponents, which she said promote a culture of violence.
