Washington D.C.: A resurfaced video of Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) criticizing Florida Rep. Byron Donalds for marrying a white woman has sparked controversy, with critics accusing her of hypocrisy and racism. The clip, originally from nine months ago, shows Crockett questioning whether Donalds' marriage influenced his political views, suggesting he might believe he was "whitewashed".

On FOX's The Greg Gutfeld Show, panelists slammed Crockett’s remarks, contrasting them with Democrats’ usual stance on racial equality. "If a white person said this, they’d be canceled immediately," argued commentator Tyrus (George Murdoch), highlighting a perceived double standard. He noted that while Black conservatives often face scrutiny from their own community, progressive figures like Crockett escape similar backlash for inflammatory comments.

The discussion took a broader turn as the panel debated societal attitudes toward interracial relationships. Tyrus, who joked about his own dating history spanning multiple ethnicities, dismissed Crockett’s critique as outdated: "They all take your money the same, they all leave you the same." Meanwhile, comedian Michael Loftus jibed about her "meaningful" 20-minute relationship with Michael Jordan, mocking the idea that race should dictate personal choices.

Commentator and all-round instigator Piers Morgan called Crockett a "racist" and a "liar", accusing the left of excusing such rhetoric when it comes from their own. The panel agreed that Crockett’s comments — alongside other Democratic gaffes, like Hillary Clinton’s "hot sauce in my purse" remark — expose a pattern of performative identity politics.

Some on the show saw Crockett as a boon for conservative commentary. "She’s the gift that keeps on giving," Morgan said, predicting more viral moments from her. As the segment closed, Gutfeld joked about hiring an intern to dig up more "old news" on progressive figures.
