Texas Democratic Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett on Wednesday accused members of the Republican Party of pursuing narrow personal objectives while ignoring the needs of  ordinary Americans. The Congresswoman made the remarks during a nationally-televised news show on MSNBC. She harshly criticized  Congresswomen Lauren Boebert (R-Co.) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.)  for promoting what she described as personal political agendas  that “do little to improve the plight of the average American.” “They are about conspiracies and nonsense,” Crockett said while appearing on ‘The ReidOut,’ hosted by Joy Reid. “Both of them are are nothing but walking human-beings who would not know the truth if it slapped them in the face.” Speaking about her fellow House members  who sit with her on the powerful House Committee on Oversight and Government Accountability, she continued. “They do not care about the truth.” Rebutting Crockett’s charges, a statement from Boebert ‘s office stated, “the Congresswoman is focused exclusively on legislation that will benefit the people of Colorado’s Third District. She is a leader on issues important to the people of Colorado, like combating western drought and fighting inflation.” Phones calls to Greene’s Washington and district offices were not returned. The Oversight Committee met on Capitol Hill Wednesday to hear testimony from former employees of Twitter identify regulations that determined whether or not a tweet or individual was removed from the social media platform. During her questioning  of the former Twitter  employees, Greene said  it pleased her that they had been fired when new management purchased the company. She accused some of the former employees of unlawful censorship because they banned tweets that she and other conservatives had written. “You censored my right to free speech by removing me from Twitter,“ Greene said, directing her remarks to the witnesses. “You did not ban my Democratic opponent. Banning my tweets was not in the best interests of the American people.” Greene was banned in January of 2022. Boebert was banned in January of 2021. During the hearing some Republicans accused the former Twitter employees of favoring President Biden during the 2020 president election. They also charged that Twitter officials wrongly demonstrated support for Hunter Biden, the president’s son who was accused of  corrupt business practices by Republican members of the House and  Senate. “They were upset by what occurred with their personal twitter accounts,” Congresswoman Crockett said of Congresswomen Boebert and Greene. “They showed the American people who they really are,” she said. “We should not be using federal time and federal funds like that.” They do not want to talk about real issues, the first term Congresswoman added.
