Jim Jordan DESTROYED By Jasmine Crockett For Not Knowing How Government Works.

Jasmine Crockett Calls Out GOP's Anti-DEI Racism

The confrontation unfolded during a House Oversight Committee session, where Jordan attempted to challenge Crockett on procedural grounds—only to be publicly corrected in spectacular fashion by the Texas attorney-turned-congresswoman, who reminded everyone in the room exactly how government works.

What started as a tense exchange over committee jurisdiction quickly unraveled when Jordan questioned Crockett’s interpretation of constitutional authority and legislative protocol. The problem? He got the basic structure of congressional oversight completely wrong.

Crockett, known for her poise and sharp legal background, didn’t miss a beat. “With all due respect, Congressman, if you’re going to lecture me on how government functions, you might want to crack open a civics textbook first,” she said, her tone calm but cutting.

The room audibly shifted. What followed was a point-by-point breakdown of committee responsibilities, separation of powers, and the limitations of congressional authority that left Jordan staring blankly at his notes.

This wasn’t just a clash of egos. It was a symbolic moment in an increasingly dysfunctional Congress, where spectacle often overshadows substance.

Crockett’s ability to cut through political theater and bring the focus back to facts highlighted a growing hunger among voters for lawmakers who actually know their stuff.

And for Jordan—who chairs the House Judiciary Committee—it was an embarrassing reminder that bluster isn’t a substitute for knowledge.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett didn’t just win an argument—she made a statement. That women of color in politics will no longer sit back while being talked down to.

That legal expertise still matters in lawmaking. And that Congress isn’t a stage for uninformed grandstanding—it’s a workplace that requires competence.

Jim Jordan may have underestimated her. But now the entire country knows: Jasmine Crockett came to Congress with receipts—and she’s not afraid to use them.
