Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-T.X., has quickly become the viral sensation as a new leader of the Democratic Party for her nasty views on President Donald Trump and his fellow Republicans.
She’s also gaining popularity for her vile comments aimed at handicapped and disabled people, too.
Just weeks after video footage caught Crockett making fun of Texas Gov. Greg Abbott for being in a wheelchair, Crockett was once again caught undermining and belittling a group of handicapped people.
The incident was all caught on camera.
Crockett has been accused by fellow congresswoman Republican Rep. Lisa McClain of Michigan of cutting the line at the airport with a taxpayer-funded private police escort.
But that isn’t all she did, according to McClain.
In a Sunday post on X, McClain shared several photos of Crockett with a private police escort as she waited to board a plane at the airport.
McClain accused Crockett of cutting the line ahead of other passengers, including disabled people who were supposed to be given priority boarding because they need assistance.
“SPOTTED: Jasmine Crockett with a taxpayer-funded police escort, cutting everyone in line — even making DISABLED people wait. Nothing to see here, just the next leader of the Democrats, abusing her power!” McClain wrote on X.

Crockett has not issued a comment on the allegations at the time of publication.
But, it’s not the first time she’s done something offensive directed at the handicapped.
In late March while speaking in front of the Human Rights Campaign, Crockett called Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, who has been in a wheelchair for decades, “Governor Hot Wheels.”
CROCKETT: “So we out in deez hot *** Texas streets, honey. Y’all know we got governor hot wheels down there. Come on now, and the only thing hot about him is that he is a hot *** mess, honey.”

She also said he was a “hot *** mess.”
However, what’s worse than the actual comment might be Crockett’s justification for saying it.
Crockett put out a statement at the time attempting to explain that racism was why she made fun of a man in a wheelchair by calling him “Governor Hot Wheels.”
I wasn’t thinking about the governor’s condition—I was thinking about the planes, trains, and automobiles he used to transfer migrants into communities led by Black mayors, deliberately stoking tension and fear among the most vulnerable.
Literally, the next line I said was that he was a “Hot A** Mess,” referencing his terrible policies. At no point did I mention or allude to his condition. So, I’m even more appalled that the very people who unequivocally support Trump—a man known for racially insensitive nicknames and mocking those with disabilities—are now outraged.
The latest, disturbing move from Crockett comes on the heels of a Politico report last Thursday that Crockett has been pitching herself for the top Democrat spot on the House Oversight Committee to fellow party members, sending text messages, emails, and hosting conversations on the House floor.
Though the space has not yet been left vacant, Democrat Rep. Gerry Connolly (VA) has planned to step aside as he battles a recurrence of esophageal cancer.
According to the report, Crockett has told other lawmakers that she’s “made for the moment,” the people said, an apparent reference to the desire among Democratic voters for more forceful resistance to President Donald Trump.
She told Politico via text message that, while there isn’t a vacancy, “knowing that Rep Connolly doesn’t plan to seek re-election & knowing that our oversight powers are broad, I’m ready to shine a light on the very dark things taking place in our country under this administration.”
