Hip-hop artist Cardi B, whose real name is Belcalis Almánzar, threw her support behind radical Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) for the Texas Senate race, using her Instagram platform to push millions of followers toward supporting one of Congress's most far-left members.
The endorsement comes less than a week before the competitive Democratic primary, where Crockett faces off against other liberal candidates hoping to challenge for what Democrats desperately want to flip from red to blue.
But here's what Texas voters need to understand: This isn't just some celebrity endorsement. This is the woke entertainment establishment mobilizing behind a politician who represents everything wrong with today's Democratic Party.
Crockett's Radical Record Speaks Volumes
Jasmine Crockett has quickly established herself as one of the most divisive figures in Congress since taking office. She's pushed every failed Biden-era policy imaginable - from open borders to green energy boondoggles that would cripple Texas's oil industry.
And now she's got the backing of a rapper who's made a career out of vulgar lyrics and anti-American sentiment. Cardi B has previously attacked conservative values, pushed defund-the-police narratives, and championed the same failed policies that turned cities like San Francisco and Portland into crime-ridden disasters.
"When Hollywood elites and woke celebrities start picking your politicians, you know something's wrong," said one Texas GOP strategist who requested anonymity.
The timing of this endorsement is no coincidence. Democrats know they're in trouble nationwide after Trump's decisive 2024 victory, and they're getting desperate. They're calling in every favor from the entertainment industry to try and salvage what they can.
But Texas isn't California, and Lone Star State voters have consistently rejected the kind of radical leftism that Crockett represents. From her support for massive government spending to her attacks on traditional energy jobs, Crockett's agenda would be devastating for hardworking Texans.
The question now is whether Texas Democrats will choose to double down on the far-left ideology that's already been rejected by American voters, or if they'll recognize that celebrity endorsements can't mask failed policies. Either way, Texas patriots better be paying attention - because the fight for the heart of the Lone Star State is just getting started.
