U.S. Representative Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) is facing accusations of political corruption following a segment on “The Rubin Report,” where host Dave Rubin, Emily Wilson, and Link Lauren discussed a list of her alleged campaign expenditures on luxury travel and hotels across the country.
The discussion, shared in a clip from the show’s “Direct Message” segment, focused on a breakdown of expenses purportedly paid for by Rep. Crockett’s campaign, suggesting she has been “living high on the hog” instead of spending time with constituents in Texas.
According to the panel, the alleged luxury expenditures include tens of thousands of dollars spent at high-end resorts and hotels, such as:
- Ritz Carlton: Over $4,000
- The Luxury Collection: $2,300
- West Hollywood Edition: $5,300
- Times Square Edition: Over $1,100
- Area Resort (Vegas): Over $2,000
Rubin highlighted the irony of a progressive politician engaging in such lavish spending, suggesting the behavior is “consistent with all these people,” calling it “socialism for you but I’m going to ball out when I go to Vegas.”
Link Lauren, who stated she is from Dallas, Texas, was particularly critical, claiming that Crockett does “not show up for your constituents” and is a “joke.”
Emily Wilson echoed the sentiment, expressing frustration that the same individuals who “hate on capitalism” are often the “biggest capitalist I’ve ever seen,” referencing other alleged instances of extravagant spending by Democratic officials.
Rubin noted that the alleged extensive travel suggests Crockett is “not spending an awful lot of time in Texas,” especially as she is “openly flirting with trying to run for Texas Senate seat.”
