‘STRAIGHT OUTTA CONGRESS’: Top progressive concedes race after viral mockery for ‘embarrassing’ defeat
Trust is earned, not demanded.
Progressive star Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, has conceded her race for the U.S. Senate after suffering an "embarrassing" defeat to a lesser-known Democrat, state Rep. James Talarico.
A second-term congresswoman widely seen as one of the top voices in the Democratic Party, Crockett lost her primary to Talarico. The defeat not only crushes Crockett’s hopes of serving in the Senate, but also places her political future in doubt as her House term ends in January.
After an initial election night outburst in which she blamed Republicans for coming up short against Talarico, Crockett conceded her defeat in a Wednesday morning social media post.
Crockett said she called Talarico on Wednesday morning and "congratulated him on becoming the Senate nominee."

She urged Democratic unity, saying Texas is "primed to turn blue" and stating, "We must remain united because this is bigger than any one person."

Memes of Crockett with the caption "STRAIGHT OUTTA CONGRESS" quickly began circulating on X.
Independent conservative journalist Nick Sortor posted on social media, "BREAKING: Jasmine Crockett has LOST the Democratic Primary for US Senate in TX, putting an END to her career in Congress. Jasmine had to decline reelection for her present seat in the US House in order to run for Senate, so she’ll be OUT after this year. Bye!"
Popular conservative influencer David Freeman, who goes by the account name "Gunther Eagleman," wrote, "Dear Jasmine Crockett, Waffle House in Dallas is hiring. Sincerely, America."
Conservative commentator Eric Daugherty mocked Crockett, writing that she "STORMS OUT of her own event after crying ‘they cheated!’ following her brutal loss. She said REPUBLICANS rigged the election in areas with high black populations."
CROCKETT DISPUTES OPPONENT'S DENIAL OF 'MEDIOCRE BLACK MAN' COMMENT, CALLS OUT 'WELL-INTENTIONED WHITE FOLK'
Daugherty called the results an "embarrassing defeat" for Crockett. He quipped, "Wow, RACIST Texas Democrat voters just opposed a black female queen! How SHAMEFUL."
Libs of TikTok reposted a video of Crockett dancing in a congressional office hallway, with the caption, "Bye Jasmine!"
