BREAKING: Democratic star Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett goes after MAGA First Lady Melania Trump for coming to America on an “Einstein visa” despite having no real achievements: “It doesn’t take an Einstein to see that the math ain’t mathin’ here.”
This takedown has MAGA world howling with rage…
“Let me get to what this hearing is supposed to be about: the idea that Trump and my Republican colleagues want to restore integrity and security in the visa process is actually a joke,” Crockett said during a House Judiciary hearing.
“Let me be clear, integrity is not snatching lawful visa holders off the streets and throwing them into unmarked vans,” she continued. “Integrity is not revoking visas based on social media posts that hurt somebody’s little feelings because kids decide that they want to go after Trump or this administration. We have a thing called free speech in this country.”
“And since we’re talking about integrity, I’m confused as to why my Republican colleagues aren’t talking about the lack of integrity when it comes to the president’s family’s visas,” she went on.
“Let me remind y’all that Melania, the First Lady, a model — and when I say model, I’m not talking about Tyra Banks, Cindy Crawford, or Naomi Campbell level — applied for and was given an EB-1 visa, and what that stands for is an Einstein visa,” Crockett said.
“Now y’all that don’t know, let me tell you how you receive an Einstein visa,” she continued. “You’re supposed to have some sort of significant achievement, like being awarded a Nobel Peace Prize or a Pulitzer, being an Olympic medalist, or having other sustained extraordinary abilities and success in sciences, arts, education, business or athletics.”
“Last time I checked, the first lady had none of those accolades under her belt,” she added. “It doesn’t take an Einstein to see that the math ain’t mathin’ here.
“Nevertheless, what Republicans are doing with this reconciliation process, the travel bans and revoking visas jeopardizes our national security,” said Crockett. “It threatens our communities, our higher education, and our economy. Visas like the largely vetted J Visas for higher education and M Visas for trade training attract the next innovators, medical providers, researchers, and educators that we need to build on American success.”
Conservative backlash was immediate. The New York Post accused Crockett of regularly employing “incendiary rhetoric” and cited random X users accusing her of being “jealous” of the First Lady. Fox News ran a breathless segment on Crockett’s remarks and had on a MAGA congressman who said he would never “dare” question Melania and called for Americans to “ignore” the congresswoman’s comments.
The truth is that MAGA supporters don’t care if Melania came to the United States legally because she’s on their team. They believe in viciously exploiting the law to attack their political opponents but believe that Republicans should be above the law. What’s more, Melania could never truly be an “illegal immigrant” in their eyes because she’s white.
