16. I've been told to dumb down, by supervisors. But I know my AA female coworkers had it worse. Despicable, imo.

Representative Crockett was wholly entitled to her point of order inquiry. Comer broke his own rule. Had he not MTG would have had her time to speak withdrawn.

Representative Crockett brought righteousness and elevated the discussion.

Additionally, she is now an urban legend with her words set to music in genres from rap to country in at least four or five songs published hours after she strongly made her perfect point.

I'm more than grateful we have strong, intelligent, fearless people ~especially Black women~ who are devoted to a life of service to the American people. Representative Crockett sets a high bar and an example for us all.

MTG will never be anything but a joke.
