The Wall Street Journal's conservative editorial board warned Republicans that they face a "bruising" primary in Texas after Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) announced her candidacy for the Senate.

Crockett announced her run after the Supreme Court ruled that Texas could use its redrawn electoral map for the 2026 primary. The new map made four Democratic-held Congressional seats, Crockett's included, more competitive for Republicans.

The Journal's editorial board argued in a new editorial on Sunday that Crockett's entering the Senate race is "good news" for Republicans. If she wins the Democratic primary, she will face off against high-profile Republican candidates like Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) or Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton.

However, the race could prove costly for the party, the editorial warned.

"Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett launched a campaign for the U.S. Senate last week, and a poll out Friday shows her leading the race for the Democratic nomination with majority support," the editorial reads in part. "This should be good news for Republicans, since Ms. Crockett is loudly to the left of the overall Texas electorate. Yet the GOP might have a bruising primary that leaves it unable to capitalize."

The editorial added that Republicans should support a candidate who can win independent and moderate votes, which would be key to defeating someone like Crockett.

"Republicans are confident about holding the Senate because they’d have to lose a net of four seats to lose control," the editorial continued. "But if 2026 is a big year for Democrats, Texas could be decisive. What if Republicans nominate Mr. Paxton, and then the GOP has to spend tens of millions trying to explain and defend him? Maybe that’s what Ms. Crockett is counting on."

A legal analyst was stunned on Sunday as she discussed the Department of Justice's latest "cover-up" attempts in a case against a member of Congress.

President Donald Trump's Department of Justice has been pursuing charges against Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) for allegedly assaulting a federal officer during a protest outside of an immigration facility in Newark, New Jersey, in May. Recently, the DOJ was forced to turn over text messages to McIver's defense team that show DOJ officials knew McIver did not assault the officer, and said the video the Trump administration relied on for the prosecution did not show her assaulting the officer either.

Legal analyst Allison Gill discussed the development on the latest episode of her podcast, "The Breakdown."

"The Department of Justice is always trying to cover up the truth, and it always comes back to bite them in the a--," Gill said.

McIver was arrested during a protest against Trump's deportation policies in Newark, New Jersey, in May, when she and other Congressional lawmakers attempted to prevent Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, a Democrat, from being arrested by federal agents, the New Jersey Monitor reported.

McIver's legal team has claimed that the video of the incident would she the Congresswoman did not impede the agents, as the charging document alleges.

Gill described the DOJ withholding that evidence as a "case killer."

"You don't have to be a lawyer to understand the implications of withholding exculpatory evidence ... And even if they don't get in trouble for that, it's certainly a case killer, along with the actual video of what happened," Gill said. "All you've got to do is see it with your own eyes."
