UH OH: Federal Elections Commission Launches Investigation into Far-Left Rep. Jasmine Crockett

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) appears to be in some legal trouble that could actually stick this time.

The Daily Signal reported on Thursday that the Federal Elections Commission has launched an investigation into Crockett regarding highly suspicious donations made to her 2024 re-election campaign.

According to the outlet, a conservative advocacy group called The Coolidge-Reagan Foundation made the FEC complaint on March 26. FEC assistant general counsel for complaints examination and legal administration then notified Crockett via letter on April 2nd.

“The respondents will be notified of this complaint within five business days,” Brown said in the letter.“You will be notified as soon as the Federal Election Commission (FEC) takes final action on your client’s complaint,” she added. “Should you receive any additional information in this matter, please forward it to the Office of the General Counsel.”The complaints reference a 73-year-old Texas resident named Randy Best, who supposedly made 53 separate donations totaling $595 to Crockett’s campaign through ActBlue. However, Sholden Daniels, one of Crockett’s GOP opponents for 2026, promoted a video showing that Best’s wife denied knowing any knowledge about the donations.

This suggests the donations were made without the couple’s knowledge.

USPS To Hike Stamp Prices By About 7.4% To 78 Cents Effective This Summer

The U.S. Postal Service has proposed raising the price of a "forever" stamp from 73 cents to 78 cents as part of a broader rate hike set to take effect July 13, pending approval from the Postal Regulatory Commission, according to CBS News.

The increase would raise mailing service prices by about 7.4%.

The USPS says the hike is necessary for financial stability, continuing a trend of rate increases under former Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, who warned customers to expect “uncomfortable” pricing adjustments after a decade of flawed pricing models.

CBS writes that DeJoy stepped down in March after nearly five years, as the Trump administration and the newly created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), headed by Elon Musk, floated the idea of privatizing mail delivery.

Deputy Postmaster General Doug Tulino is serving as interim chief while a permanent replacement is chosen. Trump has suggested moving USPS under the Commerce Department to curb ongoing financial losses at the $78 billion agency.

Back in March our friends at the Epoch Times wrote that the DeJoy informed Congress that he signed an agreement with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and the General Services Administration (GSA) to help the U.S. Postal Service improve operations and cut costs.

In a letter, DeJoy said the agencies will assist in addressing mismanaged retirement assets, excessive workers’ compensation costs, unfunded legislative mandates, and outdated regulatory burdens—issues he claims have cost USPS over $50 billion.

Highlighting the Postal Service’s broken business model and $100 billion in past losses, DeJoy stressed the need for deep reform, noting that 10,000 workers will soon be offered early retirement following previous workforce reductions.
