Texas' 30th district Congresswoman, Jasmine Crockett, made a series of social media statements on April 7, 2025. Her posts ranged from inviting followers to a community event to critiquing actions of the Trump Administration. Crockett suggested the administration's motivations behind policy decisions and proposed actions concerning national museums as erasure of historical events.

On April 7, 2025, Jasmine Crockett invited her followers to participate in the upcoming "5th annual Kids n’ Kites Festival" this Saturday at William Blair Jr. Park. She provided a link for RSVPs and additional information is accessible here.

In a later post, Crockett criticized the Trump Administration for its decision to cut food aid, affecting starving children globally. She highlighted the reason provided, “For the convenience of the U.S. Government,” and emphasized that "USAID is less than 1% of the federal budget." Crockett labeled this action as "sick," asserting her disapproval here.

Further in the day, Crockett addressed an alleged attempt by the Trump Administration to remove slavery references from the National Museum of African American History & Culture. She articulated concerns that such actions aimed to "erase the pain, struggle, and resilience" of African Americans’ history and denounced efforts to "whitewash" history here.
