Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX-30) appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Republican House members are hiding under their beds from angry constituents but Dems like Rep.Crockett have assumed a higher profile.

I won't spoil it by telling you what she and Jimmy said specifically, but Dementia Donald Trump, Apartheid Elon Musk, and Whiskey Pete Hegseth all were mentioned.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (TX-30) is one of the rising stars in the Democratic Party. Although she is only a freshman lawmaker, she has made a deep impression on the US House.

She visited Stephen Colbert and spoke about a famous exchange she had with Marjorie Taylor Greene.

She is national co-chair for Harris-Walz campaign and has been speaking around the US in that capacity.

Though she has also been encouraging support for Democratic House candidates. Democrats are tantalizingly close to retaking control of the House.

I'll write more about the House in the next few days. But for now, consider that if Dems flip House seats in just two states in districts where Joe Biden got a majority in 2020, Dems would win back the House.

Here are those seats with links to Democratic challengers.

CA-13 – Adam Gray CA-22 – Rudy Salas CA-27 – George Whitesides CA-40 – Joe Kerr CA-45 – Derek Tran NY-01 – John Avlon NY-04 – Laura Gillen NY-17 – Mondaire Jones NY-19 – Josh Riley NY-22 – John Mannion

It's good to remind people that there's more than just the presidential election on the ballot. And even if you're in a deep blue or deep red state there are contests where you can make a difference.

If you liked that excerpt, you'll love the entire speech.

« Let me tell you why nobody wants to talk to y’all behind closed doors. Because y'all lie. »

— Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX-30) making an observation about her Republican colleagues at the Hunter Biden hearings on Wednesday. Via ABC News.

Hunter Biden showed up at the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday. He's willing to testify publicly but Republicans want his testimony behind closed doors so they can make shit up.

The GOP majority wants to hold Hunter Biden in contempt for not falling into their trap. Despite his presence right in front of them they claim he's not complying with a subpoena. However a slew of House Republicans failed to comply with subpoenas by the House January 6th Committee in 2022. Hypocrisy is nothing new for the MAGA GOP.

Republicans have little interest in governance or lawmaking. To them, holding office is just an opportunity to conduct culture wars and try to install their orange dictator back in the White House. They have completely abandoned any semblance of adherence to the rule of law.

The Lincoln Project put together a vid of Democrats calling out Republicans on the House Oversight Committee.
