Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett accused of 'abusing her power' at airport after she cut passengers in wheelchairs
Briefly

Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett has come under fire for allegedly jumping the queue ahead of two passengers in wheelchairs while boarding a flight at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson Airport. Rep. Lisa McClain criticized Crockett on social media, highlighting her use of a taxpayer-funded police escort while making the disabled wait. This incident is particularly controversial given Crockett's recent remarks about Texas Governor Greg Abbott's wheelchair status. Many conservative commentators condemned her actions, referencing broader issues of entitlement among some elected officials.
"SPOTTED: Jasmine Crockett with a taxpayer-funded police escort, cutting everyone in line - even making DISABLED people wait," McClain chided on social media with images of the Texas rep cutting the line.
"Why does Jasmine Crockett get a taxpayer funded police escort? Not to mention why she gets to cut in line ahead of people in wheelchairs," Townhall columnist Phil Holloway jabbed on X.
"This entitlement is embarrassing," X user Janine Thomas chided. "Flying first class on our dime. Reminds me of the incident when Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee kicked a white lady out of her first class seat so that she could take it."
"Nothing to see here, just the next leader of the Democrats, abusing her power," McClain added, calling attention to the scene with critical remarks.
