Far-left MP Jasmine Crockett Accuses Karoline Leavitt of Cozying Up to Anti-Semites, Giving Violent Extremists a “Literal and Figurative Get-Out-of-Jail-Free Card”
In a fiery and controversial exchange that’s fueling partisan tensions in Washington, Democratic MP Jasmine Crockett launched a scathing attack on White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, accusing her of enabling hate and protecting violent extremists.
During a heated House Oversight Committee session, Crockett didn’t hold back:
“Karoline Leavitt has cozied up to anti-Semites and whitewashed the behavior of extremists. She’s giving them a literal and figurative get-out-of-jail-free card — and the consequences are real.”
Crockett’s comments appeared to reference the administration’s handling of recent protests, selective prosecutions, and controversial statements surrounding the Middle East. Though she offered no direct evidence, she claimed Leavitt had “deliberately turned a blind eye” to hate speech and incitement from far-right figures “in exchange for political convenience.”
Leavitt Fires Back
Karoline Leavitt immediately responded via social media, calling Crockett’s remarks “defamatory, unhinged, and completely detached from reality.” She tweeted:
“I stand firmly against hate in all its forms — including the kind Jasmine Crockett just spewed in that committee room. Her baseless accusations insult the intelligence of the American people and dishonor the work we do daily to protect our citizens.”
Leavitt also hinted at potential legal action, stating her team was “reviewing the transcript for slanderous intent.”
A Culture War Flashpoint
The moment has ignited intense debate across media platforms. Conservative pundits have rallied behind Leavitt, accusing Crockett of “race-baiting and deflecting from her own ideological allies,” while progressives have praised Crockett for “saying what others are too afraid to.”
Political analyst Brian Stone commented:
“This isn’t just about two women on opposite sides of the aisle. This is about the deeper war over what constitutes extremism — and who gets to define it.”
Where This Goes Next
While tensions continue to rise in committee chambers and press briefings, some lawmakers are calling for a cooling of rhetoric. Others are already fundraising off the clash, turning it into yet another symbol of America’s deepening divide.
One thing is clear: the Crockett-Leavitt showdown won’t be forgotten anytime soon — and it may just be the spark for the next round of ideological battle in D.C.
