On MSNBC, Rep. Jasmine Crockett laid it all out. From Tom Homan allegedly pocketing a bag of cash in an FBI sting to the DOJ’s refusal to prosecute, Crockett explained why the “entrapment” excuse doesn’t hold water — and why the cover-up might be even worse than the crime.

Crockett reminded viewers that solicitation and conspiracy don’t require the act itself — the agreement is enough. And just like Nixon, the bigger scandal is the cover-up. She drew the line straight from bribes in Texas to Trump’s bootleg detention centers, where private contractors — all Trump’s cronies — profit from locking up people of color.

This isn’t just about one man. It’s about a culture of corruption where bribes are business as usual, justice is optional, and Trump’s allies get rich off taxpayer dollars while communities suffer. Crockett’s message was clear: always follow the money, because the money leads back to Trump.

Ask her about Palestine. She’s a big supporter of the genocide.
