Former Texas U.S. Representative Susan Wild publicly criticizes Democratic representative Jasmine Crockett after an endorsement list from Crockett’s FIRE PAC omits James Talarico. Multiple reports describe Wild using profanity during the remarks and accusing Crockett of acting against fellow Democrats, drawing attention to internal disputes within the Texas Democratic field.
According to the outlets, the controversy centers on whether Talarico should have appeared on the list and how Wild characterizes Crockett’s motivations. The New York Post quotes Wild calling Crockett a “narcissistic drama queen” for leaving Talarico off the endorsement slate. Fox News reports Wild’s profane tirade as well, framing it as a personal attack over Crockett’s endorsement decisions rather than a policy dispute. While both accounts agree on the basic facts—Wild’s attack, the omission of Talarico, and the use of profanity—they differ in how they describe Wild’s broader accusations about Crockett’s character and intentions.
