U.S.Representative Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) faced criticism from conservative peers after describing a House Oversight Committee hearing on the Smithsonian as 'the Republicans' White Pride rally disguised as a congressional hearing.

' During her testimony before the Delivering on Government Efficiency subcommittee, Crockett defended the institution's historical accuracy, citing events such as indigenous displacement, lynchings, voter suppression, and the 1963 Birmingham church bombing.

She argued that attacks on the Smithsonian or other institutions willing to tell 'the true history of America' are attempts to rewrite history.Conservative commentators like Fox News personalities Kyle Becker and Joe Concha condemned her remarks, with some demanding her censure.Crockett's comments followed Rep.

Lauren Boebert's (R-CO) accusations that the Smithsonian promotes a 'racial narrative that divides Americans by their skin color and by guilt.' The incident highlights growing political tensions over historical narratives and institutional accountability in Congress.
