Crockett says US is 'falling apart' in response to Maxwell testimony

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) railed against the state of the union in her response to Ghislaine Maxwell‘s closed-door hearing before the House on Monday.

Maxwell, convicted co-conspirator of sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, refused to answer questions from the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. She pleaded the Fifth Amendment as she demanded clemency from President Donald Trump. Crockett voiced her own frustrations with the way the deposition and the Epstein files rollout are playing out, focusing her comments on the president while saying, “For the Democrats, this isn’t about partisanship.”
