Rep. Jasmine Crockett: “Trump’s America Isn’t Tough on Crime — It Creates It”

In this hearing, Rep. Jasmine Crockett lays out exactly what “tough on crime” looks like in Trump’s America — and the receipts tell a very different story than the GOP talking points.

She breaks down the data: for two decades, Republican-led states have had higher murder rates, higher violent crime rates, and fewer public services that prevent crime in the first place. While they claim the country is under siege, Crockett shows how their own policies — poverty, lax gun laws, slashed services — are driving the danger.

Then she takes the committee straight to the hypocrisy. The same Republicans pushing fear and chaos spent months blocking the release of the Epstein files, defended corrupt Trump officials, and gutted federal agencies that actually fight violent crime. And now they want America to trust them with public safety.

Rep. Crockett brings the context, the facts, and the lived experience from the courtroom to Congress. Her message is clear: if we’re talking about crime in America, we have to talk about the truth — not the fearmongering.
