Rep. Jasmine Crockett Exposes MAGA's Dirty Redistricting Tricks & Slams GOP's Epstein Cover-Up - The Last Word - MSNBC
Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett joins The Last Word to break down two fights at the heart of America’s democracy: MAGA Republicans’ shameless power grab through redistricting, and the GOP’s disturbing mishandling of the Epstein files.
Crockett calls out Texas Republicans for weaponizing taxpayer dollars to hunt down Democratic lawmakers instead of protecting their constituents, warning that this fight is about morality, accountability, and the future of our democracy—not just partisan politics. She also blasts the House GOP for giving Ghislaine Maxwell the “pamper treatment” while ignoring survivors’ voices and covering for Donald Trump’s allies. From gerrymandering to corruption, Crockett makes one thing clear: she’s not backing down. - Aired on 08/08/2025.
