Jasmine Crockett’s Power Play: Impeach Trump Before She Even Gets the Gavel
Rep. Jasmine Crockett wants power—and she’s not hiding what she plans to do with it. The freshman Democrat from Texas, who rose to fame with viral clips and combative hearings, has launched a bid to become the top Democrat on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. And before she’s even secured the role, she’s already vowing to use it to launch an impeachment inquiry against former President Donald Trump. This isn’t about oversight. It’s about obsession.
A Committee of One: Crockett’s Rise Through Chaos
Jasmine Crockett didn’t get here by writing legislation or building coalitions. She got here by going viral. From clashing with Marjorie Taylor Greene during hearings to launching a “Trump or Trans” quiz on the House floor, Crockett has mastered the 10-second soundbite. Her name trends not for governing, but for grandstanding. That makes her perfect, apparently, for the modern Democratic Party. In a normal world, the Oversight Committee is where Congress investigates waste, fraud, abuse, and corruption. It’s serious business. But in Crockett’s world? It’s a launchpad for TikTok content and another tool for the endless anti-Trump crusade.
“I’ll Start Impeachment Immediately”
Let’s not beat around the bush: Crockett’s agenda is impeachment, plain and simple. She told supporters that if she becomes the ranking member—the top Democrat on Oversight—she intends to begin proceedings to impeach Donald Trump. No evidence presented. No reasoned debate. Just vengeance wrapped in hashtags. This isn’t a warning. It’s a glimpse into the future. If Democrats retake the House in 2026, Oversight could become the staging ground for another round of political theater. The targets? Not Joe Biden’s scandals or government corruption—but Trump, again.
CBC in Chaos: A Battle Between Legacy and Likes
The Congressional Black Caucus is reportedly torn on whom to back for the Oversight position. On one side is Rep. Kweisi Mfume, a respected former NAACP president with decades of public service under his belt. On the other is Crockett—new to Congress, light on substance, heavy on social media engagement. And that right there is the new Democratic formula: forget experience, just go viral. Crockett’s campaign is part of a broader identity crisis on the Left. It’s not about competence. It’s about clout. The same way the party elevates AOC for her following and not her legislation, Crockett is being pushed as the face of “modern oversight.” The problem is that oversight isn’t supposed to be modern. It’s supposed to be methodical.
The Bigger Picture: If This Is the Plan, What Comes Next?
Crockett is saying the quiet part out loud. The committee’s future—should she win—isn’t about accountability. It’s about revenge. There’s no current legal basis for impeaching Trump. He’s a private citizen. The charges against him are already being litigated in courts. But Crockett’s pledge reveals the Left’s long-game: if you can’t beat Trump at the ballot box, use the machinery of government to bury him in process. Even if it fails, the spectacle becomes the story. And for politicians like Crockett, that’s the whole point.
Final Thoughts
Whether Crockett wins this leadership post or not, her bid signals where the Democratic Party is heading. Away from decorum. Away from due process. And deeper into the kind of performative politics that prioritizes buzz over balance. If a viral soundbite is enough to earn you the keys to one of the most powerful committees in Congress, we’re not dealing with a political party anymore—we’re dealing with a content agency. And the American people? We’re just the unwilling audience.
