‘Mofo…in the White House’: Jasmine Crockett attacks Trump, praises Massie in anti-Iran strike rant
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, launched another tirade against President Donald Trump over the weekend, while offering rare praise for one of her House GOP colleagues who is currently at odds with the commander in chief.
The Democratic firebrand took to Instagram Live late Saturday to criticize Trump’s strikes on Iran, while giving a «shout out» to Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., over his bipartisan resolution to rein in the president’s ability to conduct such operations.
«So long story short, for those of you that are unaware, the mofo that resides in the White House has unilaterally, in my estimation, declared war,» Crockett said in the video.
«Mofo» is often used as a shorthand term for the curse phrase «motherf—er.»

Crockett, an outspoken progressive, is part of the chorus of voices on the left accusing Trump of wrongly bypassing Congress in his military operation against Tehran’s nuclear sites.
Trump officials have maintained that they are in compliance with the War Powers Act.
«We are living in this time in which there is someone who is occupying the White House who does not care about any rules, any norms, any laws, nor the Constitution. And we cannot be a civilized country if there is no law and order,» Crockett said.
She then launched an attack on Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration, accusing him of doing more harm with his strikes on Iran.

«I know that they may claim, ‘We law and order, blah blah blah. So go get the undocumented people and let’s try to ship them out.’ Let me tell you something – they are not the people that are putting us in harm’s way,» Crockett said.
«It is him and his administration that is putting us in harm’s way.»
Crockett called on her supporters to confront Trump supporters, adding, «I literally need you to wake them the f— up, because everything since he has stepped into office has done nothing other than put us in harm’s way.»
Later in the roughly 20-minute video, Crockett asked her supporters living in Republican-held districts to reach out to their representatives in Congress.

«We need action now, and that is going to take a few Republicans, like, getting on the right page,» she said.
«And right now there’s only one Republican that I know I can count on for sure doing the right thing. And that’s going to be Thomas Massie. The rest of them, it’s a little bit questionable.»
Foreign entanglements, particularly when the U.S. military is involved, are an issue that’s made for strange political bedfellows in the past.
When the House passed emergency foreign aid last year in separate packages by region, each passed with bipartisan support – while also seeing «no» votes from dovish progressives and conservatives wary of U.S. involvement overseas.
DEMOCRATIC LAWMAKERS CRITICIZE ISRAEL’S DEFENSIVE STRIKES AGAINST IRAN’S NUCLEAR SITES
Trump’s weekend strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities are no different. While the move gained wide support from Republican leaders and some pro-Israel Democrats, a small group of conservatives has expressed varying levels of concern.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., posted on X that she could «support President Trump and his great administration on many of the great things they are doing while disagreeing on bombing Iran and getting involved in a hot war that Israel started.»
Rep. Warren Davidson, R-Ohio, commended the «strength and precision» of the strikes to Fox News Digital on Sunday but argued Congress needed to regain its «war powers.»
«While President Trump has legal precedent on his side, the legal reality underscores how far we’ve drifted from the constitutional order,» Davidson said.
Massie, who has been one of the most consistent lawmakers in Congress regarding his skepticism of foreign entanglements, is leading a resolution alongside Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., to limit Trump’s war powers on Iran.

He told Fox News Digital on Sunday that he hoped to force a vote on the bipartisan measure and signaled cautious optimism that it could succeed.
«I think it could [pass the House], because we have such a tight majority. And the Democrats aren’t very consistent about war, but when there’s a Republican in the White House, they find their religion, their anti-war religion again,» Massie said.
When reached about Crockett’s video the White House pointed Fox News Digital to comments by Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.
«The last time I checked, Jasmine Crockett couldn’t dream of winning such a majority of the public as President Trump did. And the America First movement, which President Trump has built, is filled of hardworking patriots, the forgotten men and women, business owners, law enforcement officers, nurses, and teachers. And middle America – as we all know, you know, from where you all grew up, outside of this beltway – that’s who makes up this president’s movement,» Leavitt said. «Jasmine Crockett should go to a Trump rally sometime, and she can see it for herself.»
Meanwhile, a White House official told Fox News Digital, «The fact Jasmine Crockett is siding with Massie tells you everything you need to know about both of them!»
Fox News Digital also reached out to Massie’s office for comment on Crockett’s video.

President Donald Trump arrived in Scotland late Friday for a working trip where he is expected to meet with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer amid ongoing trade negotiations between the U.S. and the U.K., as well as visit several of his properties there.
«We’re meeting with the prime minister tonight,» Trump told reporters Friday before departing for Scotland. «We’re going to be talking about the trade deal that we made, and maybe even improve it.»
«We want to talk about certain aspects, which is going to be good for both countries,» Trump said. «More fine-tuning. Also, we’re going to do a little celebrating together, because, you know, we got along very well. U.K.’s been trying to make a deal with us for like, 12 years, and haven’t been able to do it. We got it done, and he’s doing a very good job, this prime minister. Good guy.»
TRUMP HEADS TO SCOTLAND TO TALK GOLF, POLITICS AND TRADE
President Donald Trump waves as he arrives at Glasgow Prestwick Airport on July 25, 2025, in Prestwick, Scotland.
In May, the U.S. and the U.K. announced the two countries had agreed to a major trade deal, which marked the first historic trade negotiation signed following Liberation Day, when Trump announced widespread tariffs for multiple countries April 2 at a range of rates.
Trump, who is slated to remain in Scotland until Tuesday, is also scheduled to visit his golf courses in Turnberry and Aberdeen while abroad.
Here’s also what happened this week:
Federal Reserve visit
Trump visited the Federal Reserve headquarters Thursday, as he has ramped up digs at Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.
Trump accompanied other administration officials for a tour of the headquarters, following $2.5 billion in renovations to the building. The massive project has attracted scrutiny from lawmakers and members of the Trump administration, including the president, who suggested the huge renovation could amount to a fireable offense.
«I think he’s terrible … I didn’t see him as a guy that needed a palace to live in,» Trump said July 16. «But the one thing I would have never guessed is that he would be spending two and a half billion dollars to build a little extension onto the Fed.»
FOUR KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM TRUMP’S VISIT TO THE FEDERAL RESERVE WITH POWELL
President Donald Trump speaks with Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell (right) as he visits the Federal Reserve in Washington, July 24, 2025.
On Thursday, the two briefly sparred over the cost of the renovation, but Trump told reporters afterward that the two had a «good meeting» and that there was «no tension.» Trump also shut down speculation he might oust Powell, claiming such a move would be unnecessary.
The Federal Reserve, the United States central bank, oversees the nation’s monetary policy and regulates financial institutions.
Trump historically has railed against Powell, calling him names like «numskull» and «too late.» Likewise, Trump has expressed ire toward Powell for ignoring requests to lower interest rates.
«Well, I’d love him to lower interest rates, but other than that, what can I tell you?» Trump said Thursday.
Rescissions package signing
Trump signed into law Thursday his roughly $9 billion rescissions package to claw back already approved federal funds for foreign aid and public broadcasting.
The rescissions measure revoked nearly $8 billion in funding Congress already approved for the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), a formerly independent agency that provided impoverished countries aid and offered development assistance.
The rescissions package also rescinds more than $1 billion from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), which provides federal funding for NPR and PBS.

Israel reanuda el lanzamiento de ayuda sobre Gaza en medio de una grave crisis humanitaria
En medio de una creciente presión internacional para permitir el ingreso de asistencia humanitaria a la Franja de Gaza, Israel reanudó este sábado el lanzamiento aéreo de alimentos y suministros básicos. El Ejército informó que arrojó siete paquetes con harina, azúcar y comida enlatada, como parte del esfuerzo por «facilitar la entrada de ayuda» al territorio palestino.
La iniciativa también incluirá la participación del Reino Unido y Emiratos Árabes Unidos, que anunciaron su disposición para sumarse de inmediato a los envíos.
Sin embargo, la ONU y organizaciones humanitarias insisten en que esta modalidad no resuelve el problema de fondo. «El lanzamiento aéreo no pondrá fin al hambre. Es costoso, ineficaz y puede incluso matar a civiles hambrientos», escribió en la red X Philippe Lazzarini, director de la agencia de la ONU para los refugiados palestinos (UNRWA).
Este sábado, la Defensa Civil de Gaza denunció la muerte de al menos 40 personas por bombardeos israelíes en distintos puntos del enclave, incluyendo Ciudad de Gaza, Jan Yunis y un campamento en el centro del territorio. Además, tres personas murieron por disparos del Ejército cuando esperaban recibir ayuda, una de ellas alcanzada al acercarse a un punto de distribución ubicado cerca de un puesto militar israelí.
Testigos aseguraron que miles de personas se habían congregado en ese lugar con la esperanza de conseguir alimentos. «El Ejército abrió fuego cuando la gente intentó acercarse», dijo Abou Samir Hamoudeh, de 42 años, a la agencia AFP.
En paralelo, un barco con activistas propalestinos fue interceptado por fuerzas israelíes cuando se aproximaba a la costa de Gaza. Se trata del «Handala», una embarcación fletada por el movimiento internacional Flotilla por la Libertad, que había partido desde Sicilia con cargamento de medicamentos, alimentos y material médico. Israel confirmó que su marina impidió el ingreso del barco y que todos los pasajeros están a salvo.
Desde el inicio de la guerra, el 7 de octubre de 2023, Israel mantiene un bloqueo casi total sobre Gaza. A principios de marzo, ese cerco se endureció aún más, agravando la crisis por la falta de alimentos, medicamentos y otros bienes esenciales. Recién a fines de mayo se autorizaron algunas flexibilizaciones.
Este viernes, Francia, Alemania y Reino Unido reclamaron a Israel que levante de inmediato las restricciones a la entrada de ayuda humanitaria. En tanto, el Ejército israelí dijo que establecerá corredores humanitarios para permitir el paso seguro de los convoyes de alimentos y medicinas organizados por la ONU.
La guerra fue desencadenada por el brutal ataque de Hamas contra territorio israelí, que dejó 1.219 muertos, en su mayoría civiles, según cifras oficiales. En represalia, Israel lanzó una ofensiva militar sobre Gaza que ya provocó al menos 59.733 muertes, también en su mayoría civiles, según el Ministerio de Salud de ese territorio, cuyas cifras son consideradas creíbles por la ONU.
Los médicos de Gaza atienden cada día chicos y adultos desnutridos. Los hospitales suman cada día muertos por esa causa o por enfermedades evitables y simples pero que no pueden ser tratadas por falta de medicamentos. El mundo alza la voz ante la creciente crisis humanitaria en el enclave palestino, luego de más de 20 meses de guerra. Pero la ayuda que los habitantes necesitan desesperadamente no llega a tiempo y los esfuerzos para hacerla entrar se enfrentan a numerosos obstáculos.
Las agencias de la ONU y las organizaciones humanitarias denuncian las restricciones impuestas por Israel, el problema acuciante de la seguridad en un territorio constantemente bombardeado, y la aplicación de un mecanismo auspiciado por Estados Unidos y el Estado hebreo que hace caso omiso del sistema humanitario tradicional.
Israel acusa a las organizaciones internacionales de haber fracasado, y asegura que el anterior sistema coordinado por la ONU permitía al movimiento ultraislámico Hamas saquear los camiones de ayuda.
Sobre el terreno, más de 100 organizaciones humanitarias alertaron esta semana del riesgo de hambre masiva en el enclave palestino. Tanto la ONU como las ONGs se niegan a cooperar con la Fundación Humanitaria de Gaza (GHF) ya que consideran que fue concebida para servir principalmente los objetivos militares israelíes.

The Trump administration’s battle with Democrat-controlled jurisdictions and their sanctuary polices suffered a blow on Friday when a federal judge in Chicago dismissed a case challenging their legality.
Judge Lindsay Jenkins of the Northern District of Illinois, a President Biden appointee, granted the defendants’ motion for dismissal, ruling that the city’s ordinances are lawful protections not subject to federal enforcement mandates.
The Trump Justice Department, in a February filing, accused the state of Illinois and the city of Chicago of unlawfully interfering with President Donald Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration as it aims to carry out mass deportations.

TRUMP DOJ SUES NEW YORK CITY OVER LONG-STANDING SANCTUARY IMMIGRATION POLICIES
Sanctuary cities or sanctuary policies limit co-operation between local officials and law enforcement and federal immigration authorities. The Trump administration has long railed against the measures, arguing they make such areas a haven for criminal illegal immigrants and contribute to increased crime.
The Justice Department alleges these laws violate the U.S. Constitution’s «Supremacy Clause» under the Tenth Amendment, which states that federal law preempts state and local laws that may conflict with it.
But Jenkins rejected the argument, ruling that states retain significant powers not explicitly granted to the federal government.
«Finding that these same Policy provisions constitute discrimination or impermissible regulation would provide an end-run around the Tenth Amendment,» the judge wrote. «It would allow the federal government to commandeer States under the guise of intergovernmental immunity — the exact type of direct regulation of states barred by the Tenth Amendment.»

MAYOR JOHNSON WARNS TRUMP AGAINST DEPLOYING FEDERAL TROOPS FOR IMMIGRATION CRACKDOWN IN CHICAGO
The Chicago City Council passed an ordinance in 2012 that stops city agencies and employees from getting involved in civil immigration enforcement or helping federal authorities with such efforts. The Illinois legislature passed a similar state law, known as the TRUST Act, in 2017.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson said he was pleased with the decision and that the city is safer when police focus on the needs of Chicagoans.
«This ruling affirms what we have long known: that Chicago’s Welcoming City Ordinance is lawful and supports public safety. The City cannot be compelled to cooperate with the Trump Administration’s reckless and inhumane immigration agenda,» he said in a statement.

The Trump administration has sued several jurisdictions over their sanctuary policies, including a filing this week against New York City. The administration has also sued several New Jersey cities, as well as Los Angeles.
Attorney General Pam Bondi said the federal government was left with no choice but to protect New Yorkers by filing the suit.
«If New York’s leaders won’t step up to protect their citizens, we will,» she wrote on X.
