Aggressive Action by Jasmine Crockett Against Kash Patel Draws Admiration from Spectators
In a heated exchange on September 17, 2025, Democratic Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett from Texas questioned the qualifications of Kash Patel, the current FBI Director, during a House Judiciary Committee hearing.
Crockett, who has publicly criticised political figures in the past, accused Patel, the former associate of Jeffrey Epstein, of being the least qualified FBI Director in the history of the FBI, as he has never served with the FBI before joining. Patel disputed this claim, stating that he did not ask a question.
However, Crockett clarified that she was making a statement, not asking a question. The interaction between the two was widely discussed on Twitter, with various reactions from users. Some praised Crockett for her response to Patel, while others criticised him for his handling of the Epstein files and his incorrect claim that the FBI caught the suspect in Charlie Kirk's shooting, despite it being the wrong person.
In a clip posted by Twitter user @SpencerHakimian, Crockett can be seen asking Patel about his qualifications and experience. Patel responded by stating that he has worked in various roles within the government, but Crockett continued to press him on his lack of federal law enforcement experience and high-ranking positions in the Department of Justice.
Trump has been criticised for hiring underqualified and unfit individuals, including Patel, which has added fuel to the debate over his qualifications. The interaction between Crockett and Patel is likely to continue to be a topic of discussion in the coming days, as more people weigh in on the issue.
