One of the rising stars in the Trump 2.0-era Democratic Party was Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX). Crockett’s willingness to bluntly speak what many Democrats consider the truth and confront the administration has won her supporters in her party.
Crockett has also drawn the attention of Trump, who insulted the Texas congressman with racist and sexist insults.
After the state of Texas further adjusted its congressional map at Trump’s direction, Rep. Crockett has several options available to her in the 2026 elections.
Representative Crockett discussed her options on SiriusXM’s The Lurie Daniel Favors Show.
Daniel Favors asked, “Now you mentioned this district and you noted earlier that your district has been redistricted. Do you plan to continue running for the district you will now be in?”
Crockett responded, “I have no idea where I’m going from here. These are my three options. Right now we’re waiting for the court to come up with a final ruling on whether or not these rules will go into effect immediately or not. Our filing period is about to open, so they only have a little bit more time because you know where you’re going. So we expect that we’ll get a ruling from the court here soon on whether or not the rules will go into effect for this one. elections. So the rules can remain as they are. which means no changes in my district. They can change what is written into law. And that means I would move to another neighborhood.”
It was the last part of Crockett’s answer where things really got interesting, which you can read and listen to below.
