Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) made headlines after directing a profane message at billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, telling him to “F*-k off.”
Her outburst came amid a protest by House Democrats against the Republican budget plan outside the U.S. Capitol.

Crockett’s remarks are the latest in a string of attacks against Musk, who has become a target of the left due to his role in the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a Trump-era initiative aimed at cutting wasteful spending.
As a member of the House Oversight Committee, Crockett has repeatedly criticized Musk’s influence in government affairs, questioning why a businessman would be involved in identifying fraud and inefficiency.
Conservatives argue that Musk’s leadership in streamlining bureaucracy is exactly what Washington needs. His record of innovation and cost-cutting measures in the private sector has made him a logical choice to bring accountability to government spending.
Crockett’s profanity-laced remark, widely shared online, has drawn criticism from Republicans, who see it as another example of the left’s hostility toward those seeking to challenge government inefficiency.
Meanwhile, Musk has yet to respond publicly, but his supporters believe his work will speak louder than political attacks.
