Oh dear, this statement by Senator Ted Cruz is going to put Ms. Julie Kelly in quite a pickle. Earlier today, Senator Cruz called the J6 protesting groups a bunch of “violent terrorists … who should go to jail for a long, long time.”
Readers of these pages will not find this mask slip by Cruz to be a big surprise; however, for the legions of Cruz-bots, who have avoided watching him turn into a wolfman type hybrid, literally, this could be problematic. You only need to watch the first few seconds of this one minute video to see where Senator Cruz stands. WATCH:
.
If the 2016 RNC convention speech didn’t shake off his supporters, perhaps this latest revelation will. Wolfman Cruz is one small nudge to the right of the one-eyed Cheney from Texas.
Cruz just LOST IT! He can no longer be considered for any political position. The bottom line is that he’s probably positioning himself against Trump for next election…he doesn’t realize he JUST LOST!
I think he has always thought he would go the extra jump to president. He should be jumping down at this point. I do not want him in any Texas office, he should check out his local elections. The only reason he got so many votes in the last election was because he ran against crazy Beto.
Somebody should explain to him why he is ineligible to run for President….
Cruz just made another deal with the devil. Something tells me he was told he needed to renounce We the People’s protest in order to get RNC support to run in 2024. One hand washes the other, but neither hand EVER really gets clean of the swamp filth.
Unless he is installed like Pedo Joe and The Ho.
Thought Ted was better. Sounding like a member of the Bush admin – where he got his start.
Wondering if his true self is emerging since presidency appears to be out of reach.
So disappointed in this guy.
Go home, Ted. Yer’ stinkin’ up the gym.
Criticizing the use of the term “violent terrorist attack” is 100% fair, but this headline is a clear misquotation. He did say that Jan 6th was the anniversary of a “violent terrorist attack on the Capital,” and later said that “anyone who attacks a police officer, whether right-wing, left-wing, or no-wing, should go to jail for a long, long time.”
I can and do take issue with aspects of both of those statements, but Cruz did not simply say the Jan 6 rioters were “violent terrorists that should go to jail for a long, long time.” That quote is not accurate.
Cruz is less the stalwart Constitutionalist he once was, granted, but he’s far, far better than true RINOs like Cheney and McCain.
Her husband cheats, and he’s never around when she needs him, but at least he comes around for dinner now and then.
I called his office this morning, as I have many times. I told him he is not representing Texas and I will not be voting for him and I always vote. I could have said much more but I think it is just a negative, positive count they give to him. I hope other Texas treepers will make their thoughts known to him. Call 1202 224 3121. Ask for Senator Cruz office and then you will get a voice mail.
Why bother? He is a chameleon and will just adjust his position for the next election.
Where was that (inconsistent) public comment during:
Fwiw,
did you have a conversation with Mr. Epps,
or any of the people in blue that collect evidence – and then hide it, perpetually (to protect the corrupt)?
What happened to Benghazi investigation, thousands of emails?
crickets chirping…
Someone’s have been very, very quiet….for a year…
hmmm…
There is a signal there,
amongst the noise….
Of course we stand on the side of law enforcement!
That’s not the issue here. We saw how the Capitol Police invited the crowd into our Capitol. We KNOW the FBI operatives were involved. We also saw footage of how the Cap Police in the tunnel beat a woman to death. Bring out ALL the footage from all the cameras that day!
When the barricades came down, the people who were at the rally were hardly there yet.
Inside, people were taking selfies while others were fomenting hate and physical force. They asked several other young women to come to the front, but it was Ashli wrapped in an American Flag who was killed inside. Meanwhile, the man who shot her has been exonerated without a trial. Justice?
This investigation is appalling and so one sided. Those who are held is deplorable conditions because they were there peacefully are American citizen, deprived of their basic human needs and Rights, while a couple of those who tore down the barricades are scot free out west without being incarcerated. Are they FBI operatives?
Ted Cruz is entirely wrong on most of what he said, except for my first sentence above.
“Violent terrorist attack”?
While those who shepherded and incited those without prior intent to storm the Capitol appear to be government sponsored?
Mr Cruz may desire sworn statements from Ray Epps and others before making such statements.
What about the police who assaulted peaceful protesters? What about all the innocent people in jail, many of whom were simply present? What about the distortions and lies of the media? Strange, how many wolves we encounter in sheep’s clothing when at the core they are only out for themselves?
At least he figured out how to stay warm when the power went out across Texas last year, loaded up the family and took them to warmer quarters. The rest of Texas be damned.
All “career pols” are the lowest form of life.
Based on what I’m seeing today, the RINO establishment is hell-bent on destroying anyone who looks like opposition. The most fearful, of course, are those who are already compromised in some way. In other words, they have something on Cruz and is having to burn any remaining political capital he may have left.
I’m disappointed in Cruz because he truly knows good from evil and yet too often chooses evil.
I could have never been on the Cruz bandwagon since I saw him handing out soccer balls and teddy bears to illegals as he did.
We can disagree on a lot of ways to characterize Cruz, but “opportunistic” is one I think we can all agree on.
Yep. That’s Deep State Cruz. Not surprised at all.
Look. Terrorism may well have been the intent of those who conspired to turn the march into a riot.
But I can’t help but notice that Cruz’s rhetoric regarding what happened a year ago has become somewhat harsher than it was back then. Perhaps this is Cruz becoming more accommodating to Biden, now that Biden is warmongering against Russia?

What was he thinking? I thought Lyin’ Ted was a smart guy.
What I’m thinking today is that January 6 was Nancy Pelosi’s biggest wrap-up smear ever.

On a side note, who else here thinks that DeSantis is another Lyin’ Ted in the making?
Personally, he reminds me of how Lyin’ Ted was in 2013-14.
I watch the actions rather than the speech. I’ve seen DeSantis with one act after another that has not only benefited the people of Florida, but has also made the would-be totalitarian governors and others look terrible.
He has not disapointed me yet. Meanwhile, Cruz has said the right things in many (not all) cases, but has not acted to match what he says.
No, I don’t see any signs of that. What signs do you see?
.
Sorry I’m so late in commenting. TGP prompted me: https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/01/nutty-far-left-professor-lawrence-tribe-along-far-left-congress-members-trying-prevent-president-trump-ever-running-based-14th-amendment/
If Trump can be prevented from running, Cruz thinks he can be president.
Use this video to weed out imposters running for state reps and Congresses. There are still many Cruz lovers running for these spots.
Ask your local candidates to look at and comment on this video.
Ask if they denounce Mike Pence.
Also look at date they decided to run. Did they enter the race after a very MAGA person was running?
And, how long were they heavily involved in the politics of running local Republican Party?
Another is do not even listen to anyone that uses their faith or God as a credibility mark they are a good person and the right candidate.
A response from a candidate about the video that includes they are only focusing on local issues so not even going to watch entire short video is not an answer. They cannot bring themselves yo speak out against Cruz or disagrepublicly is very big sign they are not our own.
Do not automatically trust the candidate just because they are a veteran.
If avoid responding to speaking out against Mike Pence allowing the steal, big sign not of us.
If the local candidate wants to work on future election integrity but did not and will not fix election fraud in 2020, they of of same cloth as Cruz.
The hardest to discern are the candidates we know personally that do not realize they are destroying America in their good intentions to save her. We know they are good people, long-time Republicans, voted for Trump in general, but always still somewhat embarrassed by him.
Once you ask local candidates and they do not pass these test questions, post here. Word must get out.
Let’s get Ray Epps et al sworn statements before we get all terrorist.
Bummer… I have been a Cruz fan since his Texas AG days, when he went up against the Bushie regime. I stuck with him when he refused to endorse Donald Trump, after all Trump used some pretty despicable tactics when he was campaigning for President.
This, though, has bumped me over the line :(. I’m not a fan of his comments, but the fact that he kept sipping out of a “Starbucks” cup was too much.
Sen. Cruz has been too long in Washington, D.C.
Three strikes…convention, wife working at Goldman-Sachs, and this…(oh, yeah–volleyballs to illegals, too.) You’re out, Ted.
I remember all too well how he threw the innocent Trump rally-goers under the bus when the left-wing antifa types violently attacked them in Chicago, to the point that Trump had to cancel the rally. Cruise stepped up with an air of constipated virtue to the microphone and announced that it was the fault of the victims because Trump’s Tone was unfortunate and incendiary.
I had supported him up to that point but that was when I got off of that bandwagon. He also came and spoke to a group meeting I attended where he declared that we needed to increase legal immigration from 1 million per year to 5 million per year. Which would totally destroy the fabric of this nation. He is a snake in the grass.
Cruz plays whichever side he calculates will benefit him the most.
Ah yes…what a crime! Citizens who pay the salaries of the parasites who masquerade as ‘public servants’ go into the ‘hallowed halls’ of Congress – unarmed, to protest a stolen election. And Ted Cruz and AOC and Pelosi refer to them as terrorists. And Ashley Babbitt and Roseanne Boyland are summarily executed. What is actually surprising is that there weren’t many more executed by the Congress critters’ bodyguards. The only thing which gave me great pleasure in all this was seeing the photos of the cockroaches Cruz, McConnell, Pelosi, AOC, Bush, et al cowering behind desks and chairs scared out of their pathetic senses. What worthless pieces of crap – these politicians who draw their $174,000 a year on the backs of taxpayers. I plead guilty of the charge CONTEMPT OF CONGRESS.
Cruz dances to the piper’s tune—who pays the piper
LBJ, John Connally, Ted Cruz, George W. Bush, Rick Perry……Texas has a long way to go to make up for the misery they have inflicted on this country, and has a long way to go to prove to everyone that they actually believe in freedom or small government.
well, now I have NO potential candidate for 2024. Feh.
I am so done with this super-politician.
Makes you wonder just how much power does corrupt. All of these people in the Senate are drunk on cushy lives. police protection, franking privileges, huge salary, customized medical, and federal pensions—that THEY alone pass into law.
Any bumpkin from their home state just can’t let go, and they stay for decades.
I could put up with all of that if, in 2022, they would just make every decision for the benefit of THE COUNTRY, OUR KIDS, and the sustenance of the REPUBLIC. I believe they just rake in money, buy their big estates and let the rest of us eat “cake”.
Cruz can GTFO and take Cornyn with him.
Pay close attention to which popular personalities do not report this. MRCT, Benny Johnson, and more. Watch to see who stays out of the discussion..
always has been a thinly disguised worm.
It’s mind blowing the lack of leadership we have available for us as voters. How this man of extreme intellect actually thinks he can somehow benefit from siding with Pelosi’s faux investigation of the fedsurrection is confusing. How can they be so uninformed as to the pulse of the red counties that form the majority of the nation? The ONLY explanation is found in the Word of God. Jehovah has blinded them, confused them, and they don’t know evil or good.
Okay, so just watched his interview with Tucker Carlson and I’ve got to get my blood pressure down.
All I can say is we DODGED a b u l l e t when Donald J Trump EARNED the nomination from the Republican Party as our candidate.
What backpedaling.
What a fool.
Good Lord – PRIMARY HIM TEXAS!!!!!
He’s a typical politician.
I’m so angry I could spit nails. Thank God I didn’t throw something at the tee vee tonight.
He wasn’t nicknamed Lyin Ted for nothing.
The swamp rat was just on with Tucker Carlson & made a lame excuse for saying what he said. Tucker said he didn’t believe his explanation & neither do I. Henceforth, I will refer to Lyin’ Ted as Beto Cruz.
Is Ted a pedo? His support for the mainstream narrative regarding J6 indicates to me he is compromised. Could be just access to laundered money, but nobody in the Senate can plead ignorance regarding the war in progress, globalists v us. He is clearly fighting for the wrong team, therefore must be somehow compromised. So which is it Ted, taking graft, pedo, or both?
Sumptin smells off. Think you’re on to something.
Lying Ted back peddling making excuses about what he actually ment when he called the fairly calm protest as a terrorist attack. Then he trys to weasel his way out by saying ” they are calling us nazis”. including himself. Sorry Ted, too little to late.
the son of an alleged CIA cuban assassin of JFK shows his loyalty to his mother lord the deep state. ho hum
now for the scum devil linda gramnesty
it is quit remarkable that these old fossils don’t quit get that the internet is omnipresent.
Ted Cruz is not a Natural Born Citizen and likewise Rubio and VP Harris and don’t forget Barry Obama and others…people would be well advised to read the Constitution.
