Jasmine Crockett sounds exactly like a true “DEI HIRE” when she said: “I had no experience… you should hire me because I’m Black.” The story on Yahoo had more details about why she was saying this:
Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, on Wednesday appeared to boast that her being Black was a big contributor to getting hired as a public defender with no experience.
Crockett relayed the story during a House Judiciary Subcommittee on Oversight meeting on corruption in the FBI under the Biden administration. She used it as an argument to defend diversity in law enforcement.
“When I first became a public defender, I had no criminal defense experience. I walked in, and I told my boss, Charlie, I said, ‘Listen, you should hire me.’ He said, ‘Why?’ I said, ‘Because I’m Black.’ Charlie looked at me like I was crazy,” Crockett said.
