  • thank you so much Mr chair I am going to
  • try to get through a lot quickly um as
  • one of the few people sitting on the
  • dayas who actually practice criminal law
  • in the state of Texas as well as I'm
  • licens in Arkansas and practiced there
  • as well as federal courts um one of the
  • things that you said earlier Mr Beer
  • really stuck with me is that there are
  • already laws on the books as it relates
  • to those violent criminals and I know
  • this because even though I hail from the
  • great city of Dallas I can tell you that
  • when someone would come in and they were
  • being held in custody for say a crime
  • they also had a iceh hold okay and that
  • was for those that had maybe been
  • deported before and had reentered
  • illegally and things like that and so no
  • matter what type of City you're in I do
  • want to be clear federal law already no
  • matter if it's under the Biden
  • Administration or if it's under a
  • republican Administration we all agree
  • that we want to be safe and I think
  • that's the first premise that we're

  • 1:00
  • losing because there isn't something
  • that is tatted on my head that says that
  • I'm a Democrat and therefore you illegal
  • bad person don't come for me go for the
  • ones that have the RS on their their
  • forehead what's up everybody maage
  • retire Richard o Jetta here and if the
  • Harry Potter Sorting Hat were dropped
  • into Congress right now it wouldn't even
  • need to touch some of these Maga clowns
  • before Whispering ah fascist because
  • let's be honest how people react to
  • what's happening in this country tells
  • you exactly where they belong some are
  • out here cheering for deportation raids
  • defending Nazi salutes and celebrating
  • when people lose their rights then on
  • the other side you've got Jasmine
  • Crockett who actually gives a damn
  • listen I'm going to be honest because I
  • actually want to fix problems and I
  • actually have a really good senator in
  • Texas and I'm sure y'all can guess which
  • one is the good one but let me tell you
  • if we care about fent andol I have
  • state level before everybody started

  • 2:00
  • talking about it and I have Federal
  • bills bills that my senior senator has
  • signed on to so I welcome my colleagues
  • because I actually want to make sure
  • that my communities are safe but as we
  • start to talk about crime and statistics
  • Mr Beer I want to play a little game
  • with you it's called rhetoric versus
  • reality and so I want to ask you my
  • first question is this rhetoric or
  • reality immigrants commit more crimes
  • than you US citizens on a on a per
  • capita basis rhetoric or reality oh it
  • it is uh rhetoric okay thank you so much
  • she's not just some loud mouth on a
  • microphone she's a legislator a civil
  • rights attorney and someone who's been
  • doing the work long before magot turned
  • immigration into their latest hate fuel
  • campaign stunt she's tackled fentel
  • policy crime prevention and immigration
  • reform before these Republican idiots
  • even figured out how to pronounce cartel
  • and unlike her performative counterparts
  • across

  • 3:00
  • she's got something they don't actual
  • receipts the next one immigrants are
  • just living off the federal government
  • and contribute nothing that would be
  • rhetoric okay thank you so much Mr chair
  • I would ask unanimous consent to enter
  • study that says undocumented immigrants
  • pay almost hundred billion doar in taxes
  • this is from the Alabama reflector
  • without objection thank you so much my
  • final rhetoric or reality question is
  • immigrants only enter at the southern
  • border rhetoric okay right cuz we they
  • enter all kinds of ways I just wanted to
  • make sure that I put that out there
  • here's the thing about Crockett versus
  • the Maga Griff Squad she actually knows
  • what the hell she's talking about you
  • think Mars a train R green a woman who
  • once chased a school shooting Survivor
  • down the street understands immigration
  • law you think Lauren bobbert who barely
  • squeaked her way through high school and
  • got thrown out of a theater for acting
  • like a drunk teenager knows fentel
  • policy you think Nancy mace who
  • flip-flops more than a worn out pair of
  • sandals has any clue what's actually

  • 4:01
  • happening at the border these people
  • aren't lawmakers they're attention
  • seeking reality TV rejects but Jasmine
  • Crockett she's the real deal she's not
  • just pushing bills she's getting things
  • done she's introduced multiple bills
  • tackling fenel because she's actually
  • wants to fix problems not just scream
  • about them on Fox News and guess what
  • she's been working on this at the state
  • level long before it became a republican
  • talking point meanwhile the the GOP yeah
  • they don't give a damn about solutions
  • they need immigration as a talking point
  • it's never about fixing anything it's
  • about keeping their base scared angry
  • and misinformed if they actually cared
  • about fentel they' support Crockett's
  • Bill instead of using the crisis as a
  • campaign slogan if they actually cared
  • about crime they'd focus on the real
  • criminals in this country instead of
  • blaming immigrants for everything but
  • they won't because fear-mongering keeps
  • them in power I feel as if

  • 5:00
  • my colleagues from across the aisle have
  • decided that they are going to make
  • immigrants the
  • boogeyman it it's it's Insanity to me
  • but they also are showing compassion for
  • victims which they should but they have
  • no compassion for people that are
  • contributing to making us great in this
  • country so interestingly enough uh I'm
  • curious to know Mr Beer if you know if
  • immigrants contributed to these
  • particular crimes there was a mass
  • shooting in Buffalo New York that killed
  • um a number of African-Americans as they
  • were trying to shop for groceries was
  • the defendant an immigrant in that case
  • do you know no he was a us-born citizen
  • thank you so much Charleston South
  • Charleston South Carolina there were
  • black church gers trying to praise the
  • Lord they were killed was that an
  • immigrant that perpetrated that or not
  • no that was a US born citizen thank you
  • so much now coming home to Texas there
  • was an an El Paso shooting do you know

  • 6:02
  • if that was an immigrant or not no they
  • were targeting immigrants in that case
  • in fact each of these cases it was white
  • supremacist and so the last unanimous
  • consent that I'd asked for is this
  • article that states the white
  • supremacist behind over 80% of extremism
  • related us murders in 2022 without
  • objection thank you so much G ladies
  • time has expired Jasmine Crockett walked
  • into that hearing knowing exactly what
  • she was dealing with a bunch of
  • Republicans who can't tell the
  • difference between a real crisis and a
  • Fox news headline so she did the only
  • thing that made sense she turned it into
  • a game show because apparently the only
  • way to get Maga to absorb even the
  • simplest facts is to spoon feed them
  • like toddlers Republicans love to scream
  • about problems but the moment you hit
  • them with facts they fold like a cheap
  • suit they can only win when they keep
  • their base terrified and too distracted
  • to realize that they're being l to but

  • 7:00
  • here's the real question if they
  • actually cared about crime wouldn't they
  • focus on the real threat the one that
  • keeps showing up in mass shootings hate
  • crimes and domestic terrorism cases
  • because if you look at who's actually
  • committing the worst crimes in this
  • country you start to notice a pattern
  • and it sure as hell isn't immigrants
  • that's where Crockett takes this hearing
  • to the next level she got the GOP backed
  • into a corner they spent years making
  • immigrants the scapegoat for every
  • problem in America but she's about to
  • throw reality back into their faces
  • Buffalo Charleston ELP Paso not one of
  • these mass shootings was committed by an
  • immigrant every single one was carried
  • out by a white supremacist and guess
  • what those white supremacists didn't
  • just wake up one day hating people they
  • were radicalized by the same racist fear
  • mongering nonsense that Republicans Pew
  • every single day so let's be Crystal
  • Clear if the G op actually cared about

  • 8:00
  • crime if they actually cared about
  • Public Safety they'd be talking about
  • white supremacist terrorism but they
  • won't because those are their people and
  • that's exactly where Crockett is going
  • next because the real problem here isn't
  • immigration it's who the GOP is
  • protecting and what they're willing to
  • endure just to hold on the power Jasmine
  • Crockett didn't just walk into that
  • hearing to call out Republican lies she
  • exposed their entire game plan they
  • don't care about crime they don't care
  • about fentel they don't even care about
  • immigration what they care about is
  • keeping their base scared enough to
  • ignore the real threat because the
  • moment people stop being afraid the
  • entire Republican strategy falls apart
  • and that's why they push laws that let
  • immigrants be detained or deported on
  • just an accusation no crime no
  • conviction just suspicion that's not Law
  • and Order that's fascism meanwhile the
  • actual threat white supremacist violence
  • isn't just ORD it's encouraged
  • Republicans have built their entire

  • 9:01
  • movement on fear and the people they
  • radicalize end up committing the worst
  • acts of domestic terrorism that this
  • country has ever
  • seen that's why Crockett Smackdown
  • mattered she didn't just fact check them
  • she dragged them exposed them and made
  • it Crystal Clear who the real danger is
  • and while people like Mars the train R
  • green Lauren bobbert and Nancy M mace
  • play pretend congresswoman on TV Jasmine
  • Crockett is actually doing the damn job
  • Republicans don't just lie about crime
  • they feed the problem then they blame
  • someone else for the consequences and
  • Jasmine Crockett she's not just smarter
  • than they are she's fearless and they
  • can't handle it and that is an absolute
  • fact sappers clear the way Airborne all
  • the way
