"The staff is really just an island unto itself, because she doesn’t care about the local issues happening in her district," a source told the outlet. "She’s more focused on, ‘Get me on "The View," ‘Get me on this late-night talk show.’"
Crockett went on in the CBS News interview to explain that her skin color played a role in the story.

The New York Post report on Crockett, arguably the most prominent critic of President Donald Trump in Congress, alleged that the congresswoman once berated a staffer to the point of tears and said that she would make staffers drive her short distances in a rented Escalade or similar vehicle rather than the usual practice of using staffer vehicles.
Crockett regularly goes viral for her criticisms of Trump and has called him a "piece of s***" and an "enemy to the United States." The congresswoman is also known for blasting Trump during committee hearings in speeches that often get noticed on social media.
Earlier this year, The Atlantic reported that Crockett's lock screen on her phone is a picture of herself and said that when she learned the outlet had reached out to her colleagues for comment on the profile piece they were working on, she tried "shutting down" the story.
"She is laying around her apartment, won’t come into the office, and is really just indifferent to staff and will scream at them," a former aide told The New York Post about Crockett in Thursday's story.
"She is never in the office and is very disengaged. She does her bulls— that goes viral, and then freaks out over the most random things."
