Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) blasted Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) after she accused Hunter Biden of white privilege Wednesday.
At a House Oversight Committee hearing on Wednesday, Mace called for Biden to be arrested for contempt of Congress.
"You are the epitome of white privilege coming into the Oversight Committee, spitting in our face, ignoring a Congressional subpoena to be deposed," Mace told the president's son.
"This is something that I just can't get over," Crockett later replied. "I can't get over the gentle lady from South Carolina talking about white privilege."
"It was a spit in the face, at least of mine as a black woman, for you to talk about what white privilege looks like, especially from that side of the aisle."
Crockett noted that the Republican Party had a "lack of diversity."

"When you look at the Democrats, they actually look like America," she asserted. "You see, you want to talk about a two-tier justice system, and this is the only time that y'all have ever referenced it, when this country has a history, when it comes to black and brown folk, of having two separate sets of rules."
Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) yielded to Mace for a reply.
"I want to say, number one, as a former ranking member of the Civil Rights Subcommittee under Chairman Raskin last session, I take great pride as a white female Republican to address the inadequacies in our country," Mace said. "I come from a district where rich and poor is literally Black and white, Black versus white on most days."
"My largest jail in my district, which is the largest jail in the state of South Carolina, has had seven or eight deaths in the last two years. I was there with our Black and African American council members trying to get the right thing done," she added. "And I've stood with those Black families because I know the differences that they see day to day in their life. And I try to do the best that I can."
