The crowd laughed. But millions of Americans didn’t. The Democrat tried to put out the flames a day later, but instead of apologizing, she threw gasoline on the fire.
She claimed the “Hot Wheels” comment had nothing to do with Abbott’s paralysis. Instead, she insisted it was about his immigration policy.
“Literally, the next line I said was that he was a ‘Hot A** Mess,’ referencing his terrible policies. At no point did I mention or allude to his condition. So, I’m even more appalled that the very people who unequivocally support Trump—a man known for racially insensitive nicknames and mocking those with disabilities—are now outraged,” Crockett wrote in a defensive post on social media.
The statement reeked of damage control. But new revelations are making her backpedaling look more like outright deception.
According to The Washington Free Beacon, this wasn’t the first time Crockett engaged with the nickname “Hot Wheels.” In fact, she’s been supporting and “liking” similar posts on social media for years. In 2021, one user wrote, “Hot wheels [is] something else,” and Crockett gave it a thumbs-up. That same year, she hearted another post that read, “When I say I sick of hot wheels….I am SICK OF HIM.” Another fan commented, “Keep Gov Hot Wheels Mad,” and once again, Crockett hit “like.”
These weren’t isolated slips. They were part of a pattern — and now, the pattern is undeniable.
Greg Abbott, elected in 2014, became paralyzed in 1984 when a massive oak tree fell on him while he was jogging. His spine was crushed, and he’s used a wheelchair ever since. Despite that, he climbed his way to the highest office in Texas. Now, a sitting member of Congress is effectively mocking that disability — and pretending it never happened.
While Crockett’s supporters claim the criticism is overblown, conservatives are pointing out the media’s double standard. In 2016, legacy outlets obsessed for weeks over a Trump gesture they claimed mocked a disabled reporter. Today? Crickets.
“Why isn’t CNN covering this the same way they covered Trump?” one online commenter asked. “Selective outrage is the only thing consistent on the left.”
Adding fuel to the fire, Crockett is now under scrutiny for a separate incident. Just days before the “Hot Wheels” controversy, she was caught on camera swatting away a journalist’s phone during a tense exchange. The reporter had asked whether she supported the vandalism of Tesla vehicles — a growing trend among far-left activists furious with Elon Musk. Instead of answering, Crockett grabbed the device and tried to block the camera.
The footage shows a congresswoman clearly rattled, increasingly erratic, and unable to answer for her actions.

And yet, where’s the outrage from The New York Times? Where’s the condemnation from the Democrat Party?
Crockett is a member of the so-called “Squad,” the same progressive group that loves preaching about equality, tolerance, and dignity. But when it comes to mocking a disabled man — no matter how accomplished or respected — those principles seem to vanish.
This isn’t just a political gaffe. It’s a character issue. Americans are watching. And they won’t forget.
