Jasmine Crockett blasts Donald Trump and praises Thomas Massie in fiery rant over Iran strikes

WASHINGTON, DC: Rep Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) didn’t mince a word as she launched a brutal tirade against President Donald Trump and praised Rep Thomas Massie (R-KY) after the US military bombed three Iranian nuclear facilities.

Amid Iran’s escalating tension with Israel, the 79-year-old president announced on Saturday, June 21, that the US had bombed Iran's three key nuclear sites, Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan, in an operation codenamed "Midnight Hammer."

During the operation, the US military apparently "completely obliterated" Iran's top secret Fordow nuclear site with 14 massive 30,000-pound "bunker buster" bombs.

According to Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen Dan Caine, "more than 125 US aircraft" were involved in the raid, including bombers, fighter jets, refuelers, and surveillance aircraft.

Jasmine Crockett attacks Donald Trump over Iran strike

Donald Trump faced severe condemnation from both sides of the political spectrum after the US military attacked Iran. One such critic, Jasmine Crockett, accused the president of declaring war.

The 44-year-old Democratic firebrand took to Instagram over the weekend to condemn Trump’s decision to attack Iran while hailing Rep Thomas Massie over his bipartisan resolution to rein in the president's ability to conduct such operations.

"So long story short, for those of you that are unaware, the mofo that resides in the White House has unilaterally, in my estimation, declared war," Crockett said in the video, according to Fox News.

Crockett is one of many left-leaning voices who have accused Trump of improperly circumventing Congress in his military campaign against Iran's nuclear facilities.

"We are living in this time in which there is someone who is occupying the White House who does not care about any rules, any norms, any laws, nor the Constitution. And we cannot be a civilized country if there is no law and order," the congresswoman further mentioned.

Jasmine Crockett blasts Donald Trump and his administration's crackdown on illegal immigration

Later in the roughly 20-minute video, Jasmine Crockett went on to blast Donald Trump's efforts to combat illegal immigration, claiming that his attacks on Iran were causing more harm.

"I know that they may claim, ‘We have law and order, blah blah blah. So go get the undocumented people and let's try to ship them out.' Let me tell you something – they are not the people that are putting us in harm's way," Crockett said, adding, "It is he and his administration that are putting us in harm's way."

"I literally need you to wake them the f*** up, because everything since he has stepped into office has done nothing other than put us in harm's way," the Texas Democrat said, urging her supporters to confront Trump supporters.

"We need action now, and that is going to take a few Republicans, like, getting on the right page," Crockett stressed. 

"And right now, there's only one Republican that I know I can count on for sure to do the right thing. And that's going to be Thomas Massie. The rest of them, it's a little bit questionable,” she added.

White House claps back at Jasmine Crockett as she attacks Donald Trump over Iran strikes

When asked about Jasmine Crockett's video, the White House sent Fox News Digital a statement from White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt.

"The last time I checked, Jasmine Crockett couldn't dream of winning such a majority of the public as President Trump did,” the 27-year-old said.

“And the America First movement, which President Trump has built, is filled of hardworking patriots, the forgotten men and women, business owners, law enforcement officers, nurses, and teachers,” Leavitt stressed.

“And middle America — as we all know, you know, from where you all grew up, outside of this beltway — that's who makes up this president's movement. Jasmine Crockett should go to a Trump rally sometime, and she can see it for herself,” she added.

Meanwhile, a White House official told Fox News Digital, "The fact Jasmine Crockett is siding with Massie tells you everything you need to know about both of them!"

Massie, who has been one of the most consistent members of Congress in his opposition to overseas entanglements, is co-leading a resolution with Rep Ro Khanna (D-CA) to limit Trump's military powers against Iran.

He told Fox News Digital on Sunday that he planned to force a vote on the bipartisan bill and expressed cautious optimism that it would pass.

"I think it could [pass the House], because we have such a tight majority. And the Democrats aren't very consistent about war, but when there's a Republican in the White House, they find their religion, their anti-war religion again," Massie said.
