I listened to President Trump call Rep. Jasmine Crockett a "low IQ individual" and I realized I had heard that before, so put the question to ChatGPT.

Donald Trump has a history of using the term "low IQ" to insult various individuals, particularly women and political opponents. Here are some notable instances:
ABC News

Jasmine Crockett
In April 2025, Trump referred to Representative Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) as a "low IQ person" during an interview on NBC's Meet the Press. This comment followed Crockett's criticism of Texas Governor Greg Abbott, whom she nicknamed "Governor Hot Wheels" . In response, Crockett appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and challenged Trump to take a public IQ test against her .

Kamala Harris
Trump has repeatedly targeted Vice President Kamala Harris with similar insults. During a rally in Milwaukee in November 2024, he called her a "low-IQ person" while criticizing her competence . He reiterated this insult at a campaign event in Raleigh, North Carolina, in October 2024 .
The Guardian
YouTube

Maxine Waters
In 2018, Trump labeled Representative Maxine Waters (D-California) as "an extraordinarily low IQ person" after she called for public confrontations with Trump administration officials .
ABC News

Mika Brzezinski
Trump also targeted MSNBC host Mika Brzezinski in 2017, referring to her as "low I.Q. Crazy Mika" in a tweet. He further insulted her by claiming she was "bleeding badly from a face-lift" during a visit to Mar-a-Lago .

These instances reflect a pattern in Trump's rhetoric, where he uses derogatory terms to belittle critics and opponents, often focusing on their intelligence or appearance.

Darian DeVries should have told Dan Gavitt that Tucker DeVries would be available for the tournament.

kenpom @kenpom.com · Mar 15

Of course Duke says Flagg would be available. They are highly incentivized to say this, whether it's true or not, in order to preserve a one-seed.

Weird system we have where this is even necessary and a team isn't judged solely on its accomplishments, but whatevs. www.espn.com/mens-college...

NCAA: Duke says Flagg to be available for tourney

Duke star Cooper Flagg, who suffered an ankle injury during the ACC tournament, will be available for the NCAA tournament, according to Dan Gavitt, NCAA senior vice president of men's basketball.

They…turned off…National Institutes of Health grants? That’s nearly $50 billion of scientific research.

Nsikan Akpan @monscience.bsky.social · Jan 22

NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.

Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions
