Jasmine Crockett brags about getting job as public defender with ZERO experience because she’s Black
April 3, 2025 | Nicole HaasMartin Luther King, Jr. must be rolling in his grave.
Texas Dem Jasmine Crockett raised eyebrows when she proudly boasted about how she landed her job as a public defender, despite “having no criminal defense experience”, during a House Judiciary Subcommittee meeting.
“When I first became a public defender, I had no criminal defense experience. I walked in, and I told my boss, Charlie, I said, ‘Listen, you should hire me.’ He said, ‘Why?’ I said, ‘Because I’m Black.’ Charlie looked at me like I was crazy,” Crockett said.
“And I said, ‘Let me tell you something. When I walk in, I’m going to walk in with a level of rapport and understanding that maybe some of my other colleagues will not.’ Charlie offered me my job, and I worked my butt off and I worked really, really hard for all of my clients, not just those that look like me. That is what it looks like to serve.”
X had a field day with Crockett essentially admitting that she’s a ‘DEI hire.”
