Jasmine Crockett launches Texas Senate bid with video of Trump insults
The Lead

Rep. Jasmine Crockett filed to run for US Senate from Texas in 2026. Crockett, the 44-year-old congresswoman who’s drawn national attention for her criticisms of President Donald Trump, posted a video on her social media account in which she says nothing. She looks off screen as Trump’s voice can be heard insulting her and calling her a “very low IQ person,” then turns to the camera and smiles. The video then cuts off with the message, “Crockett for US Senate.”

A display of the 2025 draft Congressional map at the Indiana Statehouse in Indianapolis, Indiana, US, on Monday, Dec. 8, 2025. An explosion of fiercely partisan mid-decade redistricting contests has been a top priority for President Donald Trump, who has an eye on the razor-thin GOP House majority offering a bulwark between himself and a hostile legislative branch that can gum up his agenda.
