Jasmine Crockett fires back at Marjorie Taylor Greene for 'challenging my blackness'

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) responded after Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) suggested that the Texas Democrat did not understand the "black American struggle" because she went to college.

In an interview with right-wing podcaster Megyn Kelly this week, Greene lashed out at Crockett.

"So she claims to be, you know, from her people," Greene remarked. "She puts on this image that she understands the black American struggle. But let's face it, the girl went to private school. She went on to, you know, I don't know what college and law school."

"She's a complete fake. She's as fake as her eyelashes. She's as fake as her hair. She's as fake as her fingernails. And she is such a massive fraud," the Republican lawmaker added.

Crockett responded in a Wednesday post on X.

"It is funny that MAGA cultist want to challenge my blackness because of my education," Crockett wrote. "Y'all are a joke. Walk a day in my shoes where your white supremacist friends send me hateful emails, death threats, DMs, & posts, and then you can tell me if I'm truly living the black experience in this country, UNTIL then mind your business."

"ALSO 'being black' has nothing to do with education… (BUT for the record, if it did, just know that the MOST educated demographic in THIS country is BLACK WOMEN 🎤 so stop pretending like we are inferior in ANY WAY!)" she insisted.
