Rep. Jasmine Crockett: “Immigrants Aren’t the Threat — White Supremacists Are”

In this interview on The Weekend, Rep. Jasmine Crockett calls out what she describes as the most violent, dehumanizing immigration agenda in modern American politics — and why communities across the country are living with the consequences. From U.S. citizens being detained without warrants, to diabetic patients denied basic medication, to families so terrified they’re pulling their kids out of school, she breaks down what’s really happening on the ground.

Crockett also zeroes in on Trump’s latest push to “denaturalize” Americans, why fear has become the centerpiece of his policy, and how dehumanization — whether aimed at immigrants, trans people, or communities of color — is always the first step toward something darker. She makes it plain: immigrants strengthen this country, and the cruelty isn’t accidental. It’s the point.

And as questions swirl in Texas, she confirms what the data now shows: she’s a serious contender if she enters the U.S. Senate race. But execution, coalition, and a statewide strategy will determine the final call — not pressure, not noise.

Rep. Crockett ends with the reminder many seem to forget: America’s strength has always come from who we choose to stand with, not who we’re told to fear.
