Jasmine Crockett faces fresh criticism for mocking Greg Abbott's disability

In a Wednesday "Black Lady Courtroom" broadcast and X video, the outgoing Texas Democrat called the governor "uniquely disabled" and "DEI" while discussing the accident that left him wheelchair-bound at 26.
Abbott's office pointed to his X response, where he wrote "Uniquely abled" alongside an AI superhero image, as critics on social media condemned Crockett's remarks.
The episode revives backlash over Crockett's 2025 "Governor Hot Wheels" comment, which she said targeted Abbott's policies, not his disability; she lost a Senate primary in March and is leaving Congress in 2027.
