Rep. Jasmine Crockett: "Trump Turned ICE Into a Modern Slave Patrol -- And People Are Dying" - Rep. Jasmine Crockett
In a searing House hearing, Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) lays out one of her most forceful condemnations yet of Donald Trumps immigration agenda calling it the most openly racist immigration regime in modern American history.
Rep. Crockett draws a direct line between Trumps mass-deportation machine and Americas history of slave patrols, arguing that ICE under Trump has become a system built to terrorize communities of color, not make the country safer.
She walks through the testimony of witnesses detained without warrants, denied constitutional rights, and held in inhumane, deadly conditions including overcrowded rooms, lack of medical care, rotten food, and people on dialysis unable to access a bathroom.
Rep. Crockett makes clear this isnt accidental: Trump has spent decades dehumanizing Black and Brown people. From demanding the execution of the Central Park Five, to calling African nations sh*thole countries, to saying immigrants poison the blood of America, she argues this regimes cruelty is a feature, not a flaw.
This hearing captures exactly whats at stake: human rights, accountability, and whether America repeats its darkest history. - 11/25/2025.
