Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s ‘Green Dreams’ Exposed: Financial Scandal Unveils Hypocrisy Behind Her Marijuana Empire Ambitions
Texas Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett has made a name for herself as one of Washington’s loudest — and most self-absorbed — far-left personalities. In just the past week, the congresswoman said she’s “strongly” considering a Senate run in 2026 if she’s redistricted out of her Houston-area seat.
“I am looking,” Crockett told a satellite radio host, according to Politico. “Because if you want to take my seat of 766,000 away, I feel like there has to be some karma in that to where I take your seat that is for 30 million away.”
The comment wasn’t surprising for a lawmaker who’s become synonymous with brash theatrics and social-media pandering. But now, new revelations suggest Crockett’s ambitions weren’t limited to politics — she apparently had plans to become the Marijuana Queenpin of the Midwest.
According to The Washington Free Beacon, Crockett held stock in 25 companies — none of which she disclosed to the public during her 2023 congressional run. Among those holdings was an investment in a cannabis business, a glaring conflict of interest given her advocacy for decriminalizing marijuana both in Texas and nationwide.
“The far-left firebrand’s impressive financial portfolio—according to records obtained by the Washington Free Beacon through a public records request—clashes with her image as an eco-warrior and beacon of progressivism. Further, Crockett, a self-described civil rights attorney, was an active stakeholder in the cannabis business—seeking unsuccessfully to open marijuana dispensaries in Ohio—even as she represented, as a defense lawyer, a man accused of murdering someone in a marijuana deal gone bad.”
Despite publicly branding herself as a progressive champion for “green energy” and “equity,” Crockett’s undisclosed investments tell another story. Her stock portfolio reportedly included major corporations like Amazon, ExxonMobil, Johnson & Johnson, and Ford — companies that clash directly with her anti-corporate persona.
Even more troubling is her failure to report those holdings in her first congressional financial disclosure, despite being legally required to list them. Her previous filings as a Texas lawmaker showed a sizable portfolio of stocks across pharmaceutical, fossil fuel, tech, automotive, and marijuana industries. Yet those assets suddenly disappeared from her congressional paperwork.
Crockett’s history of vulgarity and self-promotion is well-documented. She once insulted GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, calling her a woman with a “bleached-blonde, bad built butch body.” She told a predominantly black church that “we done picking cotton,” suggesting illegal immigrants should take over that work. She’s also lashed out at President Donald Trump for striking Iran “before he had time to holla” at her, told reporters to “f*** off” when asked for comment, and claimed that Signalgate wouldn’t have happened under “a good black woman… who can check you and tell you that… you shouldn’t be doing this s*** on Signal or anything else!”
Even liberal commentator Stephen A. Smith called her out for her unprofessional behavior:
“This educated, brilliant black woman, representing over 750,000 people, is engaging in verbiage and rhetoric for the streets,” Smith said. “And that’s fine when you on the streets. How many of y’all bring the streets to the table when you at the negotiating table trying to get a deal done?”
Crockett’s “street” persona may play well on social media, but her undisclosed financial entanglements paint a more cynical picture — a politician profiting from the same industries she pretends to fight against.
Among her undisclosed holdings were shares in Amazon, American Airlines, AstraZeneca, AT&T, DuPont, ExxonMobil, Ford, General Motors, Johnson & Johnson, and Uber — all of which either benefit from or conflict with legislation she has supported in Congress.
“Personal financial disclosure rules are in place to make sure Members of Congress do not engage in conflicts of interest while working for the American people,” said Caitlin Sutherland, director of Americans for Public Trust, according to The Washington Free Beacon. “The concerns surrounding the extreme discrepancies between Representative Crockett’s state and federal financial disclosures are certainly legitimate. If she is found to have improperly reported her assets and liabilities, further inquiry and possible penalties would be warranted.”
For a politician who preaches transparency and equity, Crockett’s record appears to be full of smoke — and not the medicinal kind. Her push to “turn Texas blue” may have just turned her reputation green with greed.
