Guess where Ted Cruz was on the 4th of July, America's birthday?
Jamaica. A real patriot. He was defying CDC guide lines. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bus...o-2021-2%3famp
This guy also voted against emergency funding for hurricane sandy victims. Now his state is begging for government help.

Let's just move on from Cruz ... he's a weakass nobody that cuck to Trump. | I will not stop going after lying ted until he is out of office. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/18/u...rm-cancun.html Quote:
Text messages sent from Ms. Cruz to friends and Houston neighbors on Wednesday revealed a hastily planned trip. Their house was “FREEZING,” as Ms. Cruz put it — and she proposed a getaway until Sunday. Ms. Cruz invited others to join them at the Ritz-Carlton in Cancún, where they had stayed “many times,” noting the room price this week ($309 per night) and its good security. The text messages were provided to The New York Times and confirmed by a second person on the thread, who declined to be identified because of the private nature of the texts.

Also it's good to call this shit out so it doesn't spread to Canada.. .Well it pretty much is, as you recall we had some pretty heavy MAGAS in here who left when their guy lost. Imagine the trolling would have been 1000% had he won though |

I'm still shocked welfare actually left. It's like his entire reason to post here was predicated on Trump, and his "winning".
There are other reasons to post on this forum outside of politics, I guess that's why I find it so fascinating.
Has anyone ever met him in real life, or know the guy personally? Just curious.

Yah without Welfare, Manic! gets a free pass ... and is bored out of his wits, posting pointless, useless sh*t. I mean he did that before while Welfare was here but now there is no one to go pages and pages with babbling about fart.
Of all of us, I think Manic! misses him the most.

Manic, me thinks, is who he is in real life as he is on line............

Welfare is probably in a deep dark place because the person he put so much time into defending lost and now the evil Dems have taken over. When trump won I didn't look at the trump thread for months didn't even watch the news.
MG1 I don't play pretend online neither does welfare. He plays pretend in real life.

ted cruz stealing water
AOC got busting traveling. She traveled to Houston to help at a food bank. She has raised over 4 million so far. I bet ted cruz would have no problem raising that much money if it was for his campaign.

The man goes to Cancun, gets bad press, flies back the next day, and is then seen making photo ops, handing out water. Top it off with the #texasstrong *chef's kiss*
It's guys like him that make people absolutely hate politicians.
Fake, phony, garbage.

Credit Trump for showing other politicians how stupid their constituents are in some of these states.

It just doesn't end.
Looks like his kids will have to quarantine for 10 days because of school polices. https://nypost.com/2021/02/20/sen-te...r-cancun-trip/ Quote:
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz’s two daughters will have to quarantine for seven to 10 days after returning from their now-infamous trip to Cancun — and they will miss classes at their pricey private school for that whole week, according to a report.
The strict pandemic-mandated rules at Houston’s elite St. John’s School were reported by Politico — and show just the latest cost of the senator’s tone-deaf trip to the Mexican resort town, taken while millions of his constituents suffered through cold, power outages and water shortages.

But why do they have to give themselves (and the rest of America) up to these clowns? Like actual corrupt pussy-grabbing buffoons who do this insane shit right in front of everyone. It's mind blowing.

I actually hope that the far-right will split from the Republicans and start their own Trump or Tea party or whatever. I know they probably won't because they need the cumulative votes to defeat the Democrats but the far right drags Conservative thinking into such deep shit hole that intelligent respectful exchange of ideas can't happen anymore.

Even the judges Trump appointed has some common sense! Supreme Court rejects appeals from Republicans, Trump over contested 2020 voting rules in key battleground states
The Supreme Court has formally rejected several appeals from Republicans and former President Donald Trump over contested 2020 voting rules in key battleground states.
The court declined to take up a challenge to Pennsylvania's mail ballot deadline extension that became the fixation of Republican attempts to overturn results in that state. The justices also turned away a case out of Georgia, brought by Trump ally Lin Wood, over mail-in ballot requirements. Supreme Court rejects Trump bid to shield taxes from Manhattan DA
The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected former President Donald Trump’s request to shield his taxes from the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office.
The ruling clears the way for DA Cyrus Vance to enforce a grand jury subpoena for the records.

He's arguably the 3rd highest office holder representing the State of Texas and he just fucks off to Cancun when his fellow Texans are freezing and under a state of emergency. Would be bad form even outside of a pandemic
