I love that badass Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett has absolutely no fucks to give. She will lay the facts out and doesn’t mince words, she also doesn’t give in to political pressure to stay quiet. National treasure.

@thamemeweaver.bsky.social people have made a lot of unkind comments about Melania’s hat but it sure kept her husband from kissing her at the inauguration. I’d call that a damn fine hat.
