Yet Another Anti-Gun Member of Congress Spending Big on Private Security

Rep. Jasmine Crockett, the Texas Democrat who's made a career out of demonizing the Second Amendment, is at it again—pouring taxpayer dollars into her own personal fortress of private security while lecturing the rest of us on why we can't be trusted with firearms. According to recent disclosures, Crockett's office has shelled out tens of thousands for armed guards and protection details, a move that's as predictable as it is hypocritical. This isn't just any spending spree; it's a direct contradiction to her voting record, where she's backed every major gun control push from assault weapon bans to red flag laws, all while ensuring her own safety net is lined with the very tools she wants to deny everyday Americans. It's the classic elite disconnect: rules for thee, but not for me. Digging deeper, Crockett's stance fits a long line of anti-gun politicians who've turned hypocrisy into an art form—think Nancy Pelosi's vineyard guarded by armed patrols or Beto O'Rourke's armed entourage during his presidential run. In Crockett's case, the irony is amplified by her district's skyrocketing violent crime rates in Dallas, where law-abiding citizens are left relying on overworked police while she opts for premium private muscle. This isn't mere oversight; it's a calculated revelation of priorities. When the cameras are off, these folks know armed protection works—it's why private security firms thrive on contracts with the powerful. Crockett's spending underscores a brutal truth: gun rights aren't about public safety for elites; they're a privilege reserved for those who write the laws. For the 2A community, this is red meat for the fight ahead. It arms us (pun intended) with undeniable ammo to expose the double standard at every town hall, debate, and ballot box. As Crockett campaigns for reelection, remind voters: if private security is good enough for her, why isn't self-defense good enough for you? This story isn't dying quietly—it's a rallying cry to demand consistency, pushing back against the narrative that only the state (or its hired guns) can protect us. Share it, meme it, and let's turn her hypocrisy into our momentum for 2024.
