Hoo boy. She is a house representative from Texas where the governor, Greg Abbott, has been in a wheelchair after a tree fell on him 40 years ago. She recently had an appearance where she told the attendees to pray for her because who knew what would could out of her mouth. Some backstory--Crockett is very feisty in hearings and isn't afraid to break the "decorum" rules. She and MTG got into it last year when Greene stated that Rep Crockett couldn't see properly due to her false eyelashes. I think they even offered to fist fight outside of the chamber. Crockett responded soon after by asking about a "blond butch built b!tch" or something to that effect which was obviously about Greene. She isn't afraid to send fire. She was asked a couple of weeks ago what she would say to Elmo with his DOGE crap. Her response? "F**k off". She also called Trump "Putin's ho". She says what she thinks and good for her. . . but what I don't like is that she is now trying to backpeddle from the "Governor Hot Wheels" comment. Girl if you said it then you stand by it unless you seriously made a misjudgement. I 100% believe that she meant it but now is backpeddling because it is giving her bad press. She is now trying to say that the "hot wheels" remark was about the fact that Gov Abbott was sending undocumented migrants by "planes, trains, and automobiles" all over the country to blue cities. Um no. It was a reference to the creep being confined to a wheelchair. Yes the moniker is funny to people who don't like Abbott. It wasn't nice to say but this backpedalling just makes her look weak. She is supposedly a rising star in the Democrat party. We shall see.

It’s not right. Not for a jerk to call Sarah McBride “mister” and not for a jerk to make fun of a man in a wheelchair.

Curious to see how this plays out for her in the long run.
