The Texas Democrat warns that President Trump's actions, including dismissals of DOJ officials, threaten U.S. democracy.

Crockett criticized recent firings of FBI officials and federal prosecutors involved in January 6th cases, calling it a 'cleansing' of the DOJ.
She warned that Trump's actions, including his push for Project 2025, aim to consolidate power and undermine democratic institutions.
