“Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Body A Crockett Clapback Shirt” – A Bold Statement from Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s Clapback Collection
Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett is set to unveil a unique line of apparel, aptly named the “Crockett Clapback Collection”. This comes in the wake of a heated exchange with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene during a recent House Oversight Committee hearing.
So MTG wanted to talk about my appearance in COMMITTEE?!
It’s against the rules to do…
She refused to apologize!
The chairman ruled that it was ok…
AND I asked for clarification about what qualifies as “engaging in personalities”
& basically wanted to know if I could…— Jasmine Crockett (@JasmineForUS) May 17, 2024
Crockett has revealed that the collection will feature clothing items emblazoned with her well-known retorts. The first sneak peek she shared was a black Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Body A Crockett Clapback Shirt showcasing her sharp-tongued remark aimed at Greene: “bleach blonde, bad built, butch body”.
The collection, as per the Democratic representative from Dallas, will comprise a variety of merchandise, each piece echoing her memorable quotes. The proceeds from the sales will be directed towards initiatives aimed at shifting the House majority away from the Republicans.
Crockett took to platform X to share, “Please bear with me as I work on getting the merchandise online. The first item to be released will be ‘B6’.” She also encouraged her followers to share their ideas for potential merchandise.
So we are going to drop “A Crockett Clapback Collection.” This collection will feature various swag that includes random things I’ve said. The money will go to ensuring that we have a Democratic House! Give me a little time to really get the swag online etc., but B6 will drop… pic.twitter.com/7RnPQ4jVHs

‘B6’ is a reference to Crockett’s catchy phrase that has since been dissected by political pundits, transformed into a diss track, and has made waves on the internet. The phrase was first uttered during a confrontation with Greene, who had veered off-topic during a discussion about former President Trump’s trial.
In response to Greene’s comment, “I don’t think you know what you’re here for. I think your fake eyelashes are messing up what you’re reading,” Crockett retorted, sparking a debate about the committee’s ruling on personal attacks.
Seeking clarification on the ruling from Committee Chair James Comer, Crockett asked, “If someone on this committee then starts talking about somebody’s bleach blonde bad built butch body, that would not be engaging in personalities, correct?”
In a subsequent interview with The Hill, Crockett labeled Greene’s comments as “absolutely” racist, noting that Greene had not made similar comments about the appearances of her white colleagues with whom she had disagreements.
