Sometimes it is difficult to bite your tongue and not respond negatively to the manipulative public positioning of well known sanctimonious hypocrites. Today, as I watched this interview with Senator Ted Cruz, my prayers were for grace amid the face the stunning & historical hypocrisy.
You see, there’s a problem with Cruz’s current position of advocacy regarding the southern border crisis… a position he must first reconcile before any credibility can be given to any statements. Back in 2014 Ted Cruz, Glenn Beck and Dana Loesch attacked anyone who challenged them on their ridiculous public spectacle at the U.S. southern border; during their Teddy Bears and Soccer Balls tour. More on that in a moment….
Here is Ted Cruz discussing his ‘new found’ concern about illegal aliens under the Biden administration.
https://youtu.be/–lt0Qdex0w
In 2014 Ted Cruz, Glenn Beck and Dana Loesch went to the Texas border to deliver gifts to the incoming illegal aliens during the first of many crisis involving “Unaccompanied Alien Children.” Yes the same Dana Loesch that went on to become the spokesperson for the NRA was at the border handing out gifts to illegal border crossers under the guise of a humanitarian crisis. {Full Details Here}
Beck and Cruz were passing out Teddy Bears and Soccer Balls, while Catholic Charities and Baptist Child and Family Services were getting millions. The inner-city American kids? Well, nothing for them…. not even a word from DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson. But, oh yeah, Black Lives Matter, right? I digress. All of this is well documented in the links above. It’s all there for those who have eyes to see and a capability of being intellectually honest.
When Clarice Feldman, Thomas Lifson (American Thinker) and myself called-out their enabling conduct, the trio of Cruz, Beck and Loesch went bananas and launched a full-throated attack against us for calling them out. Seven years later Ted Cruz apparently wants everyone to forget what he did to create the environment that now exists as the UAC issue on steroids happens again.

Yes, we have a crisis at the southern border; however, it is a crisis that Ted Cruz has always wind-tested his response toward.
Bravo for this concise article!
Yes, than you Sundance for writing this while almost ALL of the rest of the so called conservative press fawn all over Ted Cruz.
It is more than sickening.
I will never forget what a phony traitor the guy is.
Cruz showed his true NeverTrumper colors on a recent episode of his show, The Verdict with Michael Knowles, when they discussed the stolen election on Nov. 3rd. You would think someone who nearly lost his own senate race to Beto The Fake Latino would pay closer attention to vote fraud.
Like they do Steve Bannon.
Why don’t people see that?
I don’t understand it.
The “conservative” press fawn over him, because they too are phonies.
Like Romney, you’ll never be President.
Start there, Ted. Do the country a favor and start there.
How many times did the Republican Senate vote to block the border wall?
Do not trust them.
The arrogance of the no-borders people is astounding.
Either they are willing to be identified as those who intend to destroy the United States of America or they are providing a new illustration of ignorance: they actually do lack the understanding that enforced borders/established limits are necessary for any functional group–be it a country, a corporation, a grocery store, or a family home. I guess it’s just one of those things they pretend not to understand.
Perhaps it is not pretense. Maybe they actually don’t ever lock the doors on their homes. Do they lock their office doors when they leave for the day? Do they understand when they go to a business in the middle of the night and the doors are lockd?…or do they immediately decide they have the right to break in? I’m beginning to wonder.
Arrogance/ignorance/stupidity–in any combination or percentages, these provide the opening line of a new historical novel. “Once upon a time, there was a beautiful country with spacious skies called The United States of America”.
It took Trump 2 years to start building the wall, he went along w focusing on Paul Ryan’s tax cuts.
Sundance, I must be honest here and say that you have a way of ruining a perfectly passable narrative with those damned pesky, and often inconvenient, facts.
facts don’t need narratives, they are what they are . . . if Ted isn’t smarmy then he is certainly cynical
Ted Cruz has always lacked gravitas.
No Lollipops for Ted Cruz:
Tell them you care…each time you speak.
Make it their birthdays each day of the week.
Bring them nice things…sugar and spice things,
Teddy Bears and soccer balls…and soccer balls and Teddy Bears.
Ted Cruz is a snake oil salesman and is only ever out for himself. He is right now trying to be a President Trump favorite hoping everyone will forget how often he has been against President Trump since 2015.
Yes, Cruz is a snake oil salesman. But “…only ever out for himself”? Not at all! He’s providing value for money well spent.
Ted Cruz sold his soul for 30 sheckels, and he is pimped out for those who bought it. Everything Cruz does is for his hostile foreign sponsor:
Now that Shel has gone wherever people like him go when they die, Miriam is free to shower her foreign loot on Cruz.
And Cruz does her bidding.
Don’t confuse Cruz acting for his masters as Cruz acting for himself. Big difference.
Kent:
So much of our corporatist culture is now a feud between battling billionaires. Republicans have the eccentrics like the Mercers or the Adelsons or the remaining Kochs (what are we down to?) or even Donald Trump. Bill Kristol lost his patron billionaire Philip Anschutz, and Kristol has now decided he was a Democrat all along. Funny that..
But the Democrats ain’t playing. They have the billionaires like Jeff Bezos or Bloomberg or Zuckerberg who intend to sell out the country to China, because that’s where the money is. And their billionaires are generally young, while ours are old.
When Cruz was running for president his incident at the border with the soccer balls and Teddy bears just nagged at me to no end.
Was almost willing to forgive that until I found out he was born in Canada. Father was a Cuban who had gotten Canadian citizenship, and mother was an America whom they never did really answer clearly whether she got Canadian citizenship with her husband or not. Whatever the citizenship of Cruz’s mother, he himself said in 2008 that he was not eligible to run for president.
When I heard about where Cruz was born I was like wait a minute, wasn’t he one of the birther people in 2008? Didn’t Cruz say that if indeed Obama had not been born on US soil that he was ineligible to run?
Cruz talks a great talk, and might be the best for Texas right now, but watch out..
Oh almost forget about the very dirty campaign Cruz ran against Trump..
My memories of a dirty campaign go back to Cruz in Iowa 2016 GOP Primary. If memory serves me right Cruz and his campaign staff circulated the rumor that Ben Carson was dropping out of the race before the IA vote.
Cruz’s campaign started rumors about Melania and were the ones that released the Melania pictures.
Cruz said it was not him…But if you believe that then I go some Arizona ocean front property for you
Things I trust more than Ted Cruz….
#10. Anybody on the internet talking $—- about Ted Cruz. ??
Yes, I think you are correct. In one of my parallel universes, President Carson is in his second term.
He’s definitely not the best for Texas but we can’t seem to get him voted out
You need a patriot to run against him with Trump endorsement. That’s a problem.
Your choice was between Beto and Cruz. That’s how they stay in power.
Beto O’Rourke discusses the U.S. – Mexico border on Instagram while he gets a dental cleaning.
You couldn’t vote for kept Beto. Yes, Beto married wealth and is a totally useless human being.
Beto and a snarky comment form Ben Shapiro.
Wet Finger In The Wind: “Hark! My people seem to be moving somewhere…I must find out where so I may lead them!”
Ted Cruz lies a lot. Will we ever have leaders with integrity?
That’s why his nickname was “lying Ted”!
Lying Ted wanted to be president. He should run in Canada where he was born.
.
We had one. And, ironically, the media suddenly went on steroids at warp speed to claim in what seems like every single article how much Donald Trump lied. In addition to making a brouhaha of any slightly vague speechism, less-than-perfect word, or Bronx puffery, they also outright lied themselves.
We did have one … and he was denied his rightful return to the WH for a second term.
I always liked Cruz because of how shrewd he is with the media but as the good work of CTH demonstrates… This is why he will never be POTUS. Defining issue of our time and he throws his finger into the wind on it.
Fail.
If Biden and harris can be potus, anyone can be potus. The bar for being POTUS hovers about an inch above the ground.
Yep. All ya need is a Dominion super admin login to the vote tabulation software annnnnnd…. you too can be POTUS!
THIS is truth.
Plus a few million in walking-around cash … nothing larger than a Tubman, mind you.
A TRILLION up arrows for you!
The bar has to be that low to the ground so that those critters who crawl out from under rocks can be president. too.
They are both illegitimate.
Wow, an inch above ground, even a slug can qualify. What a depressing thought.
Another sleazy shape-shifter.
I thought Cruz had already been President. If my memory serves me right, Glenn “Cheeto Face” Beck swore in Ted Cruz as President of the U.S in 2016 by giving him the swearing in oath of office. /s
What happened to those warm meals and teddy bears for the children, of course!
The three musketeers, Glenn Beck, Rafael Cruz and overly self righteous Mark Levine.
We miss President Trump.
President Trump comments on Glenn Beck’s Cheto stunt.
Never trust Cruz
Ted has been very vociferous as of late. Ted appears to have his sights set on 2024. Ted now supports border control because 75 million voters supports border control. Ted can’t be trusted!
Ted does not support border control. The power of RINOs is the power to lie right into your face. That is their primary weapon and they feel virtuous about using it against you.
Very true hanbun.
Ted Cruz does not support border control, he only pretends to support border control for this moment in time.
Remy has a terrific short video parody that makes your point. Although it has to do with congressional spending you could apply it to pretty much any other political hot button issue. I did not put in the link as I am not sure the Treehouse accepts those, but you can find it on YouTube under Remy: Caring Again. You will laugh out loud thinking of Cruz when you watch it.
You mean you don’t believe those tears for illegal children are real?
LOL! I don’t buy that for a nanosecond. He’s preparing for a 2024 run.
Ted turns on the tears about the border crisis. He’s a total phony.
I read an article where it was reported President Trump included Ted Cruz as one of the people he was going to back. Sorry but I won’t give my money to any of the never Trump even if they pretend to turn over a new leaf. I’m waiting to see who he will be backing before I contribute. So far its been somewhat of a disappointment. I also remember Ted Cruz giving out the teddy bears and the things he said about Trump when running for office. Nope, not Ted Cruz.
President Trump also included K. Noem who appears to have a spine of a wet noodle. Trump said we need candidates with spines of steel. So, NO Noem and YES Majorie Green.
The problem is, there just aren’t that many candidates with spines of steel. Heck, there aren’t very many people of any kind with spines of steel. We may have to depend on some who don’t quite come up to the 100% trust level.
Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good. Cruz ain’t perfect, but he’s still a million times better than 0bama or Harris.
won’t vote Obama, Harris or Biden but I’m not voting Cruz either.
No, Ted is NOT better than Obama or Harris. He IS Obama and Harris. IF Cruz wins 2024, he will be chosen in hopes we will think/believe we won.
Any candidate with questionable natural born status is most likely NOT nbc and will be the only ones allowed to be president and are lockstep with the usurpers.
Some of the former #neverTrumpers seem to think that we’ve forgotten. Glen Beck , Mark Levin, Rich Lowry, Bill Kristal, etc…etc…etc. I guess it’s harder to sell books after being exposed as a RINO.
A lot can happen between now and then. His endorsements will change. IF Trump doesn’t run in 2024, we
need a similar patriot to run and support that person, otherwise we will get the same recycled RINOs and the same outcomes. We are holding off on any contributions for the same reason.
Dana also left Missouri for Texas owing something like 20K in back taxes. I don’t know if she ever paid them
And for the first three years of Trump, sat like a stump, now he wants to play us as chumps. This from a Texan conservative that supported this “maverick,” hated supposedly by left and right in the senate. It’s ALL theater. Same for him wanting Mike Lee to go to Supreme Court – YUK. Trump is a “Clarifier” showing the true colors of all – left and right. I don’t know how we clean out the Senate – 10 generally never Trumpers, 20 squishes, 20 mixed bag, yet NOT one forced the Senate into recess, so Trump could make recess appointments to move his admin forward in the early years – they wanted to show him who was boss of the appointment process, and control it with GOPers.
Notice Trump never picked them! Even Cruz was on the list but he chose others.
I think he was trying to give the sampers false hope and look like he was playing ball with
them. Unfortunately who he chose turned out to be spineless people.
Yep, glad he’s bringing attention to the CURRENT crisis, which incidentally he could’ve helped solve months ago by going on a tear whipping up GOP support for the winning presidential candidate and attacking ballot fraud—-gd Ted will you ever be consistent at anything but being a pandering pretending polly.
He’s a leader in the same a talk show host is a statesman.
In other words, without a camera rolling, he’s got nothing.
not really much different…than best prima ballerina in politics…ms. linda G…..
Sejmon: Yes, Ms. Linda is alway en pointe.
Hannity and Faux News loved Cruz and always had time for him
Faux also loves Mike Pence… .another traitor RINO.
It’s so discouraging.
Unanimous consent for mike Lee’s visa givaway during our own shutdown.
Not one objection to denying recess appointments.
Attacking PRESIDENT TRUMP for not presenting evidence of the STOLEN ELECTION in court.
He was better than beto!
But we can do better.
Sundance will recognize this.
“Look at that face!”
Oh c’mon, Ad rem. Quit horsing around.
Classic Cruz …. He is so unbelievably self absorbed. For once I have to agree with MSNBC on this one.
Carly falls down, Ted SEES IT and does nothing but continue shaking hands of supporters while his wife Heidi helps her up. Trump comments on it too in the video. He is also shocked at Cruz’s intense self absorption.
Both globalist skunks.
Remember that speech that Carly made in 2001? She was bashing the US and saying we were indebted to islam.
https://www.christianheadlines.com/columnists/guest-commentary/carly-fiorina-s-decades-long-mystical-magical-carpet-ride-to-nowhere.html
Yep. Soccer balls and Teddy bears – with Dana Loesch and Glen Beck. That’s how I’ll remember him. He only beat Beto O’rourke by a little under 3%. Oh well. At least he dropped his Canadian citizenship.
Remember this one about flip flop “CONservative” Cruz on his podcast called Verdict. I know, I know, it was a long time ago on February 1, 2021 ;-). Nevertheless you can form your own opinion and assess Cruz’s character for yourself. Here’s a quote from the video :
“President Trump’s rhetoric, I think, went way too far over the line. I think it was both reckless and irresponsible because he said repeatedly—and he said over and over again—he won by a landslide; there was massive fraud; it was all stolen everywhere. That evidence, the campaign did not prove that in any court, and to make a determination about an election it has to be based on the evidence, and so simply saying the result you want, that’s not responsible and you’ve never heard me use language like that. What I’ve said is voter fraud is real, and we need to examine the evidence, and look at the actual facts; and in particular, what is the evidence of how much voter fraud occurred, and did it occur in sufficient quantities and in sufficient states to alter the outcome of the election. That would have been the mandate of the election commission; to assess.”
Ted loves to turn the knife in deeper to Trump while trying to stay friendly to the other RINOS.
Cruz has never forgiven President Trump for winning in 2016.
I knew where SD was going before I read the article. I must confess I forgot about some Cruz’s past positions.
Cuz was put in his place by Uniparty shortly after joining the senate.
It started when Harry Reid worked it out with the Turtle to get Republicans to preclude any debate on spending bill with unanimous consent, The Democrats would pass the bill and allow all the Republics to vote against it.
Cruz objected to this and forced a couple of Mitch’s decepticons to but their names as voting to end debate with the required 60 votes. They were not happy about it.
Cruz’s abrasive personality got him the ire of the Uniparty. It wasn’t long before they got him to tow the Uniparty line, albeit playing the part of the controlled opposition to fool the Republican base.
I suspect threats and greasing his wife with a high power Wall Street job did the trick.
There are still a lot of people who support him. I for one see him as a fraud and an opportunist.
Ted looks out for Ted.
Sundance doesn’t forget that stuff.
Thank heavens he doesn’t and Sundance is one of the few brave ones who will still write about it when necessary.
Far too many of the so called conservative press are praising Cruz for “standing up to the Biden administration on the dismal border conditions”.
Cruz is one of the most untrustworthy Republicans we have on our side and has been for a long time.
Keep up the really great work Sundance.
I remember during the campaign how I’d watch a clip of President Trump making a statement then they’d play a clip of Cruz saying he was saying the exact opposite. Later when Cruz realized that wasn’t working he started stealing President Trump’s talking points. Just like a recent election where this old man did the same.

Senator Ted Cruz’s Contradictory Position on Illegal ImmigrationBy Allan J. Favish
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2015/03/senator_ted_cruzs_contradictory_position_on_illegal_immigration.html
Cruz lost my support back then because of that toys for illegals thing.
Anyone who doesn’t support Border Security and U.S. Sovereignty like Trump did, will not have my support.
“Seven years later Ted Cruz apparently wants everyone to forget what he did to create the environment that now exists…”
All of them – RINOS / GOPe – want us to forget it all. They think we’re too stupid, and / or too busy to recognize that every move they made, and every move they determined not to make, between 2016 and 01/20/21, was not just an assault on PDJT, but as much an assault on us and on our Constitution.
Never Forgive; Never Forget.
We need new blood; not GOPe retreads.
Any Rino, especially one serving in the “no recess” US Senate is not deserving of – and will not get – my support, financial backing, or vote.
Primary the snakes out.
???
lyin (g) ted
~coined!
How much did his campaign coffers grow after he turned the other way on these issues.
Earlier this morning, I was reminding a friend about the prior historic Cruz/Beck teddy bear tour of the border and this afternoon, this article appears!
During the discussion, I also opined that the majority of UNIPARTY Congress critters have zero interest in stopping this invasion and essentially support Biden’s immigration policies.
Isn’t it interesting how Cruz grandstands and announces he is taking 20 senators to the Border?
To do what? Capture images? Hold press conferences? Appear on Sunday shows?
NOT ONE SINGLE Senator will introduce a bill to stem this invasion and yet Congress writes Immigration Law.
· How about writing and introducing a bill for Amnesty seekers to claim safety in the first country they enter?
· How about writing and introducing a bill that mirrors President Trumps “remain in Mexico policy”?
· How about writing and introducing a bill that cuts off housing, food assistance and other government assistance for non-citizens and those who enter illegally?
· How about writing a bill that completes the building of the “Big Beautiful Wall” along the southern border?
· How about writing a bill that cuts off government $$$ payments to Catholic Charities, The Lutheran Evangelicals and other NGOS that use illegal aliens to pad their annual Operating budgets?
Oh Yeah. Congress doesn’t write the bills. Lobbyists do.
Congress travels to the Border to capture images, hold press conferences and appear on Sunday shows!
All of those grandstanding senators want us to forget the Donald Trump was re-elected POTUS in 2020 and few of them worked to help him fight the fraud in this election.
They seem to think that we will forget that Biden is an illegal President and if these chuckleheads who are now trooping down to the border for a photo shoot op and a pretense of concern will fool even one of us.
These senators ARE the problem and we know it and will not forget it.
The problem is not the illegals flowing across our border as much as it is these senators who would not help the duly elected President Trump fight the crooks who stole his Presidency.
This is the problem and we know it and will not forget it.
So go ahead Cruz and go to the border and frown and pick on Biden and try and blame him for this “border chaos” but Cruz and his friends the real traitors in the senate are to blame for all of this not just Biden, and we know it and will never forget it.
Worth a mention is Congress travels to the border on OUR taxpayer dime. Your post was excellent, thank you for stating it so clearly. The only Republican I know introducing bills like you mentioned is Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.
ah, ted.
ted, ted, ted.
is this the same ” vote your conscience” ted from the 2016 gop national convention?
the ted who who was nearly bood off the stage for purposefully withholding his endorsement of the party’s’ nominee?
or is this a new and improved ted?
yea, right….
Why yes it is zoom.
The exact same Ted with his cutsey, smug, cheesy smile while he tried to throw our beloved Donald J Trump under the bus at his own Republican nomination convention.
Now the same creepy befuddled Ted thinks he is back in control in the GOPe.
And the same smug, cheesy , cutsey GOPe leaders think they can lead us down the garden path and we will follow.
Not a chance GOPe, not a chance.
We voted our conscience in the primary and the general for President Trump.
We were not fooled by lying, self absorbed, narcissistic Rafael Cruz.
Turtle in training.
Wow. Thank you Sundance; this is a phenomenal summary.
I had never seen this, which you link to above, on Cruz’s birthright citizenship flip-flopping (is it constitutional law, or isn’t it O Legal Scholar Extraordinaire?) It’s a must-watch.
Sundance, I cannot thank you enough for listing and documenting the TRUTH regarding this hypocrite.
Additionally, if Lyin’ Ted is so concerned about all of the future Democrat voters, he should direct his “outrage” toward getting the election steal reversed. Being such a “brilliant constitutional scholar” should inspire and enable him to bring the best legal prowess to the forefront. Not a peep. Oh yeah….that’s right…..he’s happy President Trump is out of office. And I suppose he doesn’t give a crap about 80 million voters, either. ? What a charlatan.
I wonder how many of those illegal 12 yr old girls will end up at the back door of the white house at 2am?
Biden administration is just like Obama’s, with both Obama puppets for the NWO. There is one slight difference now, Biden is cognitively out of it, and Obama totally knew what he was doing. Oh I do believe Biden knows pretty much what he has done to a degree just as anyone else with dementia or Alzheimer’s does, but that is probably about where all of Biden’s responsibility as president ends
Report: Obama Administration Handed Child Migrants Over to Human Traffickers https://nymag.coingm/daily/intelligencer/2016/01/hhs-handed-child-migrants-to-human-traffickers.html?utm_source=tw&utm_medium=s3&utm_campaign=sharebutton-t
U.S. Placed Immigrant Children With Traffickers, Report Says https://nyti.ms/1lZ9t9o
They say the imbecile in on the phone with Obama all the time.
Interestingly Biden lives up to being a racist. He prefers white girls and Asian little girls.
You don’t see him fawning over minorities that are not Asian… .
Have you ever seen any black or Hispanic girls getting molester Joe’s attention?
How come so many Americans cannot see the ruse that the Democrats and the Illegals are playing on them.
Do either to of the Caravan pictures look like people who lived or were living in poverty, much less walked though many countries while camping out . However, we have millions upon millions of American children who are living on the streets or in poverty.
Time to help our on people not spend almost $400 person per night to put Illegals up in Hotels. Hoe many of you all make $140 k a year.. I sure as the H3LL don’t.
Taxpayers to Spend $392.69 per Person per Night on Hotels for Illegal Border-Crossers
https://cis.org/Arthur/Taxpayers-Spend-39269-Person-Night-Hotels-Illegal-BorderCrossers
I don’t understand it either and it frustrates me to no end.
Ted Cruz is nothing but a scum bag who has been in his own corner threw out President Trumps time in office and no one should trust one thing
that comes out of his mouth, He will stab you in the back the first chance he gets and at no time did he stand with the President even over the first
two years he was in office None of them did, They all have egg on their faces because the whole bunch of them said that they wanted Joe Biden in the
white house because they knew they could work with him and not President Trump Well now, these same people want us to believe they care
Susan Collins was one that went to the White House to tell Biden they could work with him and he didnt listen to one word any of them said..
THanks but no thanks to any of them, I will not give any of them money and will only give President Trump
They couldnt wait to get rid of President Trump Well now they got what they wanted only its worse than any of them thought
sorry, but your all scum bag as far as I am concerned and that goes Double for the worst scum bag of the lot McConnell I pray that man gets in the end
what he deserves kicked out of office…i
If this was not such a disaster and dangerous situation all around it would be great comedy. There is an article on Red State, calling on conservatives to refuse to deal with demo-commies until border security is legislated, that points to the comedy that people like Ted Cancun Cruz have helped write.
In 2017 and again in 2018, President Trump put forward and 14 point plan to update immigration legislation in return for putting nearly 10 millions DACA’s on a path to citizenship. This is the exact same plans the so called clown conservative now are calling to have implemented.
That was a major mistake on his part.
President Trump from what I could see was really trying in the beginning to find some common ground to end the DACA issue. When they didn’t budge, imo he was showing how neither party really wanted to solve the DACA issue or immigrations problems. Just my 2 cents.
I remember, seared in my memory, when Ted Cruz failed to endorse Donald J. Trump at the 2016 Republican convention and Trump had to walk in to mitigate the insult. If you cross President Trump once I will not forget.
Cruz looks like he’s trying out to join the Castro clan, with his spiffy brown fatigues, grey beard, and porky profile.
Teddy is a globalist so I will never give him a penny or cast any vote for him. I live in a so called red state Florida and we have two RINO Senators.
Had Ted Cruz and the rest of the elected Republicans done their job of stopping the Nov. 3rd Steal there would have been NO need to make a taxpayer funded hike to the border for their virtue signaling. Fake conservatives like Cruz really make my blood boil. We no longer watch Beck’s Blaze TV, pay attention to Dana Loesch, or believe Ted Cruz will do anything to stop the marxist takeover of America. As a side note whenever I hear Cruz speak it reminds me of Elmer Fudd. Why he is said to be the debate champion he is I will never understand.
Dont worry, the same people who forgave Bannon will quickly get in line to push Cruz for Prez in 2024.
They talk a big game of loyalty to PDJT but all they do is fall for spin.
Watch and see.
However Cruz by his own words in 2008 is not eligible to be president. That is one of the issues I had with Cruz early on after I tried to push the soccer ball incident to the back of my mind. Then Cruz ends up running one of the dirtiest slimiest campaigns that I’ve seen in a long time.
So if you are saying that we shouldnt forgive Cruz solely because he isnt eligible to run for President, but we should forgive both him and Bannon after they actively sought to damage PDJT (Cruz in 2016, Bannon in 2018) then we definitely disagree.
I say a pox on both their houses.
Soccer ball was one thing, and the he escalated it…H3LL the soccer ball mess slightly forgivable the rest of the crap he pulled NO way in hell. he is one of many of the GOP people trying to kiss Trump’s A$$ that i don’t trust.
Well, we certainly agree on that!
Saddest thing that I continually watch is how so many good and faithful patriots fall for the likes of Cruz, Bannon, Graham, etc…who, whatever their honest beliefs may be, know that we are loyal to PDJT and so they adopt spin to win over those that forget that leopards dont change their spots and that includes those who build their campaign chests and income/social media influence off of BSing the gullible.
Every time I see Graham’s name I think of his video on destroying a cell.
You forgot the Obama Christie hug….
Strange how many swamp traitors there are on both sides.
At 72 not sure I will live long enough to see the ALL be exposed…Oh there are the many we know about that just might see, but do believe there are still many hiding. .
Why do we forget the Angel Moms?
I will never forget them….
Damn over 1/3 of the homicides and other horrendous yearly crimes in America are done by illegals . Remember Illegals are supposed to be barely 6% of the population
No, Mr. Haney, we ain’t buyin’ none.
I enjoyed that! Thank you. I needed a laugh today.
Have you seen this one? I still laugh at this one.
Ted Cruz bad lip reading –
OK, so he’s flawed. Who’s perfect, and in power? Not Rubio.
Coulter has been a hardliner, but not in power.
Same for Kris Kobach (?).
What major figures, in power, get anointed?
So Cruz is tainted but now sees the light. Most don’t have a 7-year memory. Why not use the juice, and keep his feet to the fire?
It took POTUS Trump 2 years to start building the wall. Talk about critical lost time. Nobody is perfect. He was bamboozled by Swamp rat Ryan.
Sundance, you have a “bad link” somewhere – but I’m not sure where.
When I read one of your posts with links, I generally bring them up in separate tabs to read when I have the time.
Just now, I found the following link in my tabs. It’s a post by Ad rem, containing two YT videos. The link does come up, but both videos have been removed, and none of the 137 CTH comments are visible.

Considering the topic, I presume the link came from this post – but cannot see where. I’m quite certain it was from a post today.
Then there’s Scribe’s rule : “who funds him is who runs him”.
It’s not a difficult concept.
I wont vote for Cruz ever.
And in 2024 I wont vote for him to be a Senator either.
I despise him.
I always liked Ted Cruz before he became a primary contender against Trump in 2015-16. I quickly came to realize he was nothing more than an opportunistic fraud. And I immediately disowned his demented supporter, Glenn Beck. It’s so easy to see the absurd posturing by the likes of Cruz and Nikki Haley for their place as 2024 candidates. Neither of them will ever receive my support or vote.
I too was trying to hold back, so glad I was not alone in my outrage. Teddybears and soccer balls.
I wonder if Senator Cruz was the Senator who withdrew his or her support for objecting to Wisconsin delegates.
watch the world prayer network at wellversedworld.org. This week is the key for S1 and the filibuster, too. The news will be filled with stupid stories but this one is the bill to watch.
How anyone can take “lying Ted” seriously is beyond me. He even turned on the tears at the border for effect.
He could care less about what is happening there. Who is he trying to fool? He’s trying to get back into the good graces of his supporters after getting caught slinking off to Mexico with his family during that crisis in Texas.
Rafael, I did “vote my conscience” and voted for Trump for the primary and both elections. I will NEVER vote for you for anything. Grandstanding Ted is paving the way for another Presidential run.
