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.

“The summer 2020 riots resulted in some 15 times more injured police officers, 23 times as many arrests, and estimated damages in dollar terms up to 1,300 times more costly than those of the Capitol riot.”

Excellent Carlson opening tonight. He calls out Cruz, the GOP, and finally, what I’ve wanted him and other like him to do: he went after a former employee of his, NAMED HIM, and called him “weak” because in quoting Carlson, he left out an important phrase, making it seem as if Tucker was encouraging rioting.
I’ve always said that until regular folks–lowly reporters, big named anchors, producers behind the scenes, etc. get SHAMED on air or in print, they’ll continue to do as Tucker’s former colleague did, bow to employers who’ll order them to make MAGA look bad.
Had to turn it off….couldn’t stand to watch the bass turd cruz any more.
The one advantage to hearing comments from people like teddy is that we know where they stand, and what we can expect from them. The presence of the Uniparty is a deep concern, but knowing who is a member is important to eassessing who needs to be replaced during the primary. There also needs to be a new chairperson for the RNC, and new Republican leadership that will back the Constitution. I agree that no police office should ever be assaulted, but the public needs to know, and has the right to know, the complete picture of what took place on Jan. 6th. IMHO, we are being denied accurate information about what happened then and who was truly responsible for the events that occurred.
Amen !
At least now we know who all the traitors are. They know we know so they don’t care anymore. They are thinking once they shove that “For endless terms potemkin rigged elections” bill down our throats, they will never have to worry about those time consuming campaigns around the unwashed peasants. Ted’s connection to the Bush cabal always made me pause. Thank God he didn’t get the 2016 pres nomination, if he did we would be totally FUBAR by now.
The most outrageous omission in this Cruz/Cheney speech is not mentioning the culpability of the FBI plants that encouraged the protest into the Capitol and the black clothed anti-fa types at the front of one entry point that broke the windows and doors but have not been named or charged.
Many of the unarmed trespassers (not terrorists) were duped or entrapped into entering the building. Cruz also didn’t mention the “brave officers that defended the Capitol” by standing aside at the entranceways or talked and walked calmly with the protesters and even helped to remove some barricades. It sure looked like a welcoming set up to me in many ways including Pelosi not boosting security beforehand with the National Guard. If that had been done as it should have no Capitol breach would have occurred. Talk about a mixed message during an alleged terrorist attack.
If duplicitous self aggrandizing politicians like Cruz, AOC and Cheney want to see what a real terrorist attack actually is, they should watch the movie “Hotel Mumbai” as one excellent example. (It is on Netflix if any still have it. A 2019 movie about the 2008 insurrection) The comparison of an actual terrorist attack like Mumbai and a politically tainted fake one like Jan. 6th is laughable. Cruz has branded himself as a Cheney/Kinzinger disciple and buffoon.
Unfortunately, at the time, the crowd that entered the building did not take into account that the merciless Democrats will soon control all branches of the gov’t and seek to destroy all political opposition. There were some that yelled “Don’t go in–it’s a trap” and of course “Fed, Fed Fed” and so on. It’s too bad the crowd listened to the FBI operatives instead. Trump crowds had been very cautious (not timid) so they wouldn’t be sucked into a confrontation that could become Dem propaganda but unfortunately the election loss overcame that wise caution.
And now Senator Ted Cruz like the Dems, Cheney and Kinzinger want them all to rot in prison for a “long. long time.” Some will likely die while the health of others will be permanently ruined while “under the care” of some of the worst pro Democrat tormentors on earth.
Just tell me how many of the capitol police were originally turned down for some regular Police department so took the job as a security guard for the capitol so called police?
Merick Garland and Ted Cruz: Brothers from another mother.
Ted Cruz for President in 2024. (Democrat candidate for POTUS of course)
Great and True that !
Now he’ll trot out his wife and two girls again for sympathy.

A lot of conservatives talk about the great republican take over of the House and Senate in the 2022 midterms – not that anything would change if they do.
What you are about to witness starting with the “january 6” rodeo, is the stupid party ensuring that the evil, chaos and death wing of the UniParty retains control come next January. The RINO wing is going to do everything they can to ensure MAGA voters stay home this November. Do not be surprised.
To the RINOS and others standing in the way of any MAGA or legitimate voter, get out of the way.
Snakeoil salesman, and always has been one!
Would have been simpler to just have a presser and announce he doesn’t want to be President, methinks….
Truth be told, I knew NOTHING about real politics before ’16. Out of the loop, I had my views, mainly illegal immigration, trade deficit, manufacturing in China, and tried for several years to vote accordingly in the primaries of all races according to those views.
Everything I’ve learned about Ted Cruz I learned here and other conservative websites these past five years so I was never a supporter. President Trump’s campaign platform drew me to him and only him and I said f-it, I’m voting for him in the primary, period, because everyone else isn’t doing squat about the issues.
Ted Cruz is one big faker and I’m not going to get excited when he or any RINO throws us a bone once in a while a la Lindsay Graham.
I will try to do my best to vote accordingly in the primaries, it’s the only chance we have getting someone good in.
I will say also, if this guy is as smart as he thinks he is, he knows exactly what he is saying and what effect it will have on the constituents. So he is throwing it in our faces and he is putting us in our places. He must feel very secure in his Senate seat. He’s not up for reelection until ’24 so he thinks we’ll forget it. I see this pattern with the GOP, only those up for primaries or reelection will act like a Patriot, otherwise, they do things like this and say and do what they really want to.
Thing is, there has to be someone strong to run against him in Texas and also to be able to win the general. God only knows what will happen in two years, let alone this year.
I knew nothing until 2016 as well. I THOUGHT I did. But the tables were turned by Trump . And all I can see in my rear view mirror, of my GOP past, is the wasted hours I spent volunteering for the Bushes and Romney.
You aren’t the only one with regrets. Given the choices we had I can’t see what we could have done differently.
Both John Cornyn & Cruz have been in DC tooooo long!
Don’t ever go by what the primaries want. Choose your own candidate. Do your own research. Don’t allow anyone else to do your choosing for you. I don’t care which party you are behind. They are both the same, so just chose your own candidate….not someone elses’.
Oh, I did, I looked at everyone’s website and platform and chose accordingly. My picks always seemed to lose, though!
#RecallCruz
“Wolfman Cruz and One Eyed Cheney from TX” in a single sentence. That is just outstanding and outstandingly accurate as well.
Trump was right about Ted during the primaries, you can’t trust him. It’s all about Ted, Lyin’ Ted.
I thank God for one thing, he’s pulling these people out into the open so that we’re under no misconceptions about the ilk infesting the halls of power. There is no more room for placing these politicians on pedestals because at one time or another they mouth all the right words. The pedestals are all cracked and useless. These public “servants” should always be on probation now, until that moment they prove themselves no longer worthy of the public trust, and not one second longer.
Yep. Lyin’ Ted.
Trump reads people well, even when they work hard at projecting a cover persona to hide behind.
sometimes he does, if he is allowed the time to pick and chose instead of listening to what others have to push at him.
Trump does things his way. Actually that’s how we know all those he picked are the ones who revealed what scums they are who we would never know otherwise.
So true. President Trump did drain the swamp to the point where these maggots cannot be seen as anything else !
This is the real Cruz. I hope people wake up now. I’ve been trying for years to make people see who Ted Cruz really is. Now maybe they will. He and Cornyn both need to “retire”
I realized the problem with cruz before Trump had been on the platform for very long. I listened to Trump and cruz, then went for Trump.
Teddy may be positioning for a run in 2024 but he will never call this plane his main ride.

Last year we heard Democrat congressmen actually claim that they got PTSD from “41 minutes of terror trapped inside the capitol building.” Heads up soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines… DC liars & thieves got PTSD,… they are a disgrace!
I’d like to know which ones ended up with huge dry cleaning bills.
Made it a point to Unsubscribe from emails from Ted. Talks a good game ….until he doesn’t!
He has been going to my SPAM folder for a long time now. Along with all the rest of them that don’t do a thing for me and my state. Why would I want to give any money to someone who doesn’t actually represent where I live?
Cruz is still running for President. He’ll never make it no matter how much he sucks up to the left. He may be very intelligent, but he has the personality of a porcupine. If not for Trump, he would have lost his Senate seat.
It’s quaint, in a way, that Cruz believes the Commiecrats when they tell him they only stole the election because of Trump – but in 2024 they’ll play fair and accept the result gracefully.
It’s also quaint that Cruz believes he’ll be top of R ticket: he might be, but only if the Obama Crew let him.
I suspect he’ll be one of many Republicans, in a few years, who will say: ‘I didn’t realise, why didn’t Trump try harder to make me see … ‘
Bye, Ted.
HE JUST BURIED HIMSELF TO DEATH. BYE, TED. LOL
RINO running for the 2024 nomination.
I believe that I mentioned this before but we watched the January 6 stuff on YouTube and watched a few young men read from Teddy’s note book. He had some statements against PDJT and why he shouldn’t be president/no stall for recount.
They read his book out loud, stopped and said in disbelief, [“he lied! He’s against Trump too!?”]
So many times I’ve thought about those disillusioned, astonished young people. (I sincerely hope they aren’t in gulag)
Sundance….I like wolfman type hybrid now thats Funny…but more fitting would be” Eddie Munster’s Woof Woof ”

Kinda looks like him too
For the 2016 Presidential election, I was a GA elected district and state voting delegate. Before this, I had been Co-Chair of the Trump Campaign for my county.
OMG: what the Cruz Lobbyists did at both of these conventions! They were obnoxious, superior, snotty elitists. They pressured, and loudly objected the votes of GA voters for DJT! They lawyerly attempted to persuade us to ignore our constituents and to vote for Cruz who did NOT win GA. And BTW: Lawyerly BS and lobbying of voting delegates is unprofessional, creepy, and unacceptable. It is the sort of action that will always be remembered against this candidate.
I know Cruz is ineligible to be P or VP since he was born in Canada. His father was born in Cuba and was not a US citizen at the time of Cruz’s birth.
I like Ted Cruz. However, as a result of my experiences, I lost MUCH respect for him. Ted would be a great Supreme Court member. However, he is NOT eligible for P or VP and no amount of wishing will make that so.
One from the vaults, with a cameo appearance by a special guest we all know.
This has always been my general impression of Cruz.
Mr. Ted Cruz, if you are trying to show that you are NOT singleing out just the J6 Legal protestors ( excepting the FIB and others of that kind set up there to inflame & instigate which we already know about.).
THEN Mr. Ted Cruz, WHY DID YOU HIDE UNDER YOUR DESK AND KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT THE ENTIRE YEAR PLUS WHEN COMMUNISTS / RADICAL DEMS WERE CALLING FOR DEFUNDING THE POLICE FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA OF THIS NATION ! WHERE IN GOD’S NAME WHERE YOU MR. CRUZ OR ANY OF YOUR WONDERFUL GOPe COLLEGUES AT?
Everyone knows now that you kept your mouth SOOO SHUT before this , that this is your PURE POLITICAL BALONEY!
AND THAT YOU TRULLY SUCK , MR. GRICH !
Personal opinion here only…..Cruz should change his classification to the Big D before he tries to run for office again..any office. Nobody who is a conservative or a real Republican will ever vote for that man again.
Cruz will never be POTUS.
Ted Cruz believes that moving to the so called center will help him but not in this day an age. Remember, Joe Biden was billed as the moderate candidate. If he’s a “moderate”, can you imagine what an extremest Democrat would do to this country? Now is the time to pick a side and stick with it, especially for Republicans. This squishy crap ain’t gonna cut it with me anymore. Just having any old Republican win is not anywhere near good enough anymore. I want 100% MAGA candidates and I want fighters who actually care about their voters and their country as much as they care about winning elections. I’m not wasting my time on anything less.
With that statement Senator Ted is toast.
He may stay on as a Senator but his chances of becoming President are slim to nil.
I won’t be voting for the man that’s for sure.
Cruz has an inexorable hunger to become POTUS. This is simply a play to stomp POTUS Trump.
Cruz’s speech is an early warning for DeSantis to guard his back side.
Um, Mr. Cruz, could you possibly include police like the one who shot into the crowd at the Capital & killed unarmed veteran, Ashley Babbit?
Or those who opened the barriers & waved the crowds into the Capital?
Your answers mean zero to me as I’ll be watching for news of your defeat.
Is Rafael actually trying to be the Adam Kinzinger of Liz Cheney’s ?
You know he wants her…………..he really does
https://nypost.com/2021/10/14/ted-cruz-wishes-aoc-happy-birthday-despite-frequent-spats/
Read that headline somewhere else today and my brain said “Wut”??!!!!
Sundance, is Julie Kelly a Cruz supporter?
[email protected]
Senator Cruz,
Your comments on the January 6th political prisoners had a big impact on me.
How dare you trash political prisoners instead of attacking the thieves that stole our National government on November 3, 2020.
You have betrayed every American voter.
We KNOW the election was stolen because we follow the details, despite the lies, despite the censorship.
We KNOW many state and local Republicans ignored, or, actively aided, the ballot and tabulation fraud.
We now KNOW Ted Cruz is an enemy of our Constitution, American citizens, and our Western Civilization values.
You have made many, many new enemies today, especially here in Texas. I doubt your new woke friends are worth it.
One Angry Texan
Adios, Ted and Crenshaw. Wanted to say goodbye to Cornyn last election, but there was no one else. Texas really has gone to hell.
I wonder if Dr. McCullough would consider running? He has name recognition though I am certain he despises Politicians and politics. I trust his judgement and he isn’t a Lawyer which is a plus.
How many candidates for GOP presidency?
Well, one down. Bye Ted.
66 Secret Service agents were injured in the Antifa/BLM attack on the WH. How many of those responsible were put in jail for “a long, long time?” The double standard is sickening.
Weird beard is never going to make it to the SCOTUS….or the White House. He’s following Liz Cheney to the ‘universally hated’ corner.
He is now disgusting as far as I am concerned.
This piece seems out of context and not necessarily related to most people from the January 6th event. I watched it live at the time and it was mostly surprised confusion that some people were actually inside. Certainly there were many persons that were not MAGA there. Ted Cruz is difficult to judge.
Spit
Sigh.
Thanks for summing up my many words.
I thought it was a booger.
A leopard can’t change it’s spots. Sooner or later the paint intended to cover them wears off for all to see. Well, poor Ted, as much as he tried, his ego and ambitions failed to suppress his true political self and it’s hatred of Trump and MAGA. That said, he’s finished and it’s going to be impossible for him to scrape off the pile of his own making. The RINO spots have reappeared.
I was done with Cruz when his response to an invasion was 🧸 & ⚽️.
Ted is legendary in his own
mind,
I’ll be glad when he runs out of rope.
Well, he’s not wrong; he just didn’t clarify Who were the Terrorists that day. Our Own Government.
When ANTIFA and BLM anarchists attacked the White House nightly for two months with bricks and firebombs not one of them were prosecuted… Ted Cruz said NOTHING!
Once a slimy POS politician, always a slimy POS politician!!! They just keep exposing themselves one by one.
How about a ‘rule’ that NO Lawyers ever more are eligible for any Government jobs. State, local, federal, no lawyers. At this point the local child who sacks groceries at the IGA would be more responsible and honest that anyone swimming in the DC stable muck.
I’ll second that!!!
Apperently Henri VI, or at least shakespeare, agree.
” Kill all the lawyers , kill ’em tonight ”
Shakespeare , I believe .
My how some things never change.
Psychiatrists and Lawyers
Destroying mankind
Driving them crazy
And stealing them blind
— Strong as Samson, Procol Harum, words by Keith Reid
That line is from “Get Over It” by The Eagles. Shakespeare said, “The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers!”
I believe he said “hang”?
What do you call 10,000 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean?
A start.
or in the fake news media (they are all lawyers, politicians, ex military or intel )
Lawyers are worse than pond scum!
All of them. Even the retirees are dregs.
Well he put his foot in his mouth. The so called group who may or my not have entered the Capitol, a lot were severely beaten by Capitol Police, One unarmed woman was murdered by one of the security personnel, for Mike Pence I think Another woman was severely beaten by the Police, and she was NOT armed, and neither was she trying to get into the Capitol. There also was an apparent set up by member of the FBI, which supposedly portrayed themselves as citizens trying to get in to the Capitol illegally. In other words, the FBI personnel, were NOT what they presented. In fact, they tried to get people to go into the Capitol building, then got a bunch of people arrested, and who now set in jail. It was a set up.
This is way beyond foot in mouth. This was a disgusting political calculation. I hope every person in the Treehouse sends him a message telling him what a traitorous idiot he is.
