Firebrand Democrat Jasmine Crockett slammed her white colleagues on the left for voting to honor Charlie Kirk in a Congressional resolution.

The Texas Congresswoman criticized Kirk on the day of his memorial service, accusing him of promoting a ‘rhetoric that aimed specifically at people of color’.

Crockett made the remarks on an appearance opposite CNN’s Dana Bash, who had spoken to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer just beforehand. 

Bash noted that Crockett was among the 58 Democrats who opposed the resolution honoring Kirk. In response, Crockett expressed her disappointment, saying it ‘hurts my heart’ that only two white individuals joined her in voting against it.

‘Generally, those who voted “No” were people of color because Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric consistently focused on targeting people of color,’ Crockett elaborated.

She went on to say that it’s ‘unfortunate’ that her fellow colleagues ‘could not see how harmful his rhetoric was, specifically to us’.

Crockett also said that just a month before he died, Kirk was ‘talking negatively’ about her on his podcast.

‘So if there was anyway that I was going to honor somebody who decided that they were just going to negatively talk about me and proclaim that I was somehow involved in the great white replacement, yeah I’m not honoring that kind of stuff, especially as a civil rights attorney and understanding how I got to congress.’ 

Firebrand Democrat Jasmine Crockett slammed her white colleagues on the left for not voting against a Congressional resolution honoring Charlie Kirk just hours before his memorial service  

Crockett criticized Kirk on the day of his memorial service for spouting a ‘rhetoric that specifically targeted people of color’ 

She continued: ‘Knowing that there were people that died, people that were willing to die that worked to make sure that voices like mine could exist in this place.’ 

Crockett made the remarks hours before Kirk’s memorial service was held in the 60,000-seater State Farm Stadium in Arizona. 

Speakers at the event included Kirk’s widow Erika, President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance, as well as a long list of leading MAGA figures.  

Trump delivered an eyebrow-raising 45-minute speech where he walked back remarks made by Erika Kirk about ‘forgiving’ Kirk’s alleged killer, Tyler Robinson, 22. 

He said that while Kirk ‘did not hate his opponents’ and ‘wanted the best for them’, that was ‘where I disagreed with Charlie.’ 

‘I hate my opponent, and I don’t want the best for them,’ Trump said. 

‘I’m sorry. I am sorry, Erika, but now Erika can talk to me, and the whole group, and maybe they can convince me that that’s not right, but I can’t stand my opponent.’

Just before her husband’s service, Erika revealed how she feels about his alleged killer being executed.

Robinson, 22, was arrested two days after Kirk was fatally shot in the neck while on the first stop of Turning Point USA’s ‘American Comeback Tour’.

Erika, former Miss Arizona, said she did not want to be the one to decide his fate and wanted the government to decide what happens to Robinson.

‘I’ve had people ask, “Do you feel anger toward this man? Like, do you want to seek the death penalty?” I’ll be honest. I told our lawyer, I want the government to decide this,’ Erika, 36, told The New York Times.

She went on to say she does not want anything to do with the decision because it could create unwanted guilt, especially when it comes to her Christian faith.

‘I do not want that man’s blood on my ledger. Because when I get to heaven, and Jesus is like: “Uh, eye for an eye? Is that how we do it?” And that keeps me from being in heaven, from being with Charlie?’ Erika continued.

Speaking for the first time since her emotional speech just two days after her partner died, Erika revealed the exact moment she heard he’d been shot.

She had planned on traveling with him from Arizona to Utah that day, but she had to be with her mother who was undergoing medical treatment, Erika said.

Erika Kirk, who shared two young children with the late conservative star, revealed she almost traveled with him from Arizona to Utah the day he died, but she had to be with her mother who was undergoing medical treatment

Around 11.23am local time, she got a frantic call from Michael McCoy, her husband’s assistant, stating ‘He’s been shot!’

Erika hopped in one of Kirk’s chartered planes but it was too late as he was pronounced dead while she was in the air.

‘I’m looking at the clouds and the mountains. It was such a gorgeous day, and I was thinking: This is exactly what he last saw,’ she recalled. 

Once she arrived at the hospital, Erika met with a sheriff who gave her the option to see Charlie’s body – something he advised against her doing because of the severe damage the bullet did to his neck.

Nonetheless, she insisted she see her husband one last time.

She recalled telling the sheriff, ‘With all due respect, I want to see what they did to my husband.’

Once his deceased body was in front of her, Erika said she knew ‘he’d died happy’.

‘His eyes were semi-open. And he had this knowing, Mona Lisa-like half-smile. Like he’d died happy. Like Jesus rescued him. The bullet came, he blinked, and he was in heaven,’ she said, adding that she kissed him – something that she didn’t do before he left the house that morning.
