The Texas Senator who has been morphing into a wolf like caricature, left himself naked to his enemies yesterday by his own choosing. After proclaiming the J6 protestors were “violent terrorists”, the articulating stutterer must have realized he stood on a political landmine.
Ted Cruz quickly appeared on Fox News with Tucker Carlson in an attempt to regain credibility. It’s interesting that Cruz chose the Tucker Carlson show for the effort, and it’s interesting that Carlson gave him the opportunity. However, the result was predictable. You cannot create authenticity where only inauthenticity exists. If you try, what you end up with is a hole digger that keeps digging. WATCH:
…”The more he spoke of his honor the faster we counted the spoons.”
Teddy just wants to sleep with AOC.
I was going to say it myself, the next we’ll hear, is Ted caught in bed with AOC.
Oh my…What will “ugly sandals” boyfriend do to Ted?
AOC’s boyfriend looks like an Amish farmer.
that is extremely offensive to Amish farmers. He actually looks like what he is. a Soy Boy liberal
I know Amish farmers, he’s no Amish farmer.
He reminded me of Harry, the former Prince, now just Megan’s boy.
Jim1904,
That absolutely killed me.
Well, dont we all?
Ratona doesn’t excite me.
Everyone who criticizes her “thinking” is motivated by erotic longing. Wonder what this says about those who agree with her having no interest. Apparently to know her is not to love her.
” it’s interesting that Carlson gave him the opportunity.”
Give me strength.
Carlson is the outstanding media power essentially on Trump’s side.
But still not pure enough because he didn’t talk up the stolen election. He just might have picked up on SCOTUS who told us early that after Inauguration they weren’t interested…..
He cut Cruz up….and still he’s suspect.
It’s unAmerican not to glean clear winners and losers. Come on, what column do you put the game in? Too muddy, ambivalent and dare I say nuanced.
Far and away, the most striking thing about the interview is that people are still content to watch TV with their NCAA bracket cards out.
Media ALL MEDIA is the elephant in the TV room. As to how you get its fat ass out into the streets, well, that’s a true American dilemma.
CUT TGE CORD! I did in 2005. I read profusely and never watch a video except for President Trump’s speeches….Life is Great!
I have always liked Tucker and was thrilled years ago when he got his evening show on fox. I think he would be better without the fox constraints, being able to talk about election and other more taboo subjects. He only gets away with as much as he does on fox because he is their top talent.
Agreed.
Suspicious cat, Emu.
Emu,
The night Carlson went after Sidney Powell, early December 2020, my wife and I shut Fox off for ever.
Dumped cable a few weeks later when an alternative could be arranged.
I saw the Cruz reveal because it was replayed by CFP, then CTH published this Carlson interview.
You are dead center Bullseye about Carlson.
Face it, Sidney’s heart is in the right place but she couldn’t help making unprovable and or outlandish claims for media attention. Carlson knew it as well as I did. Apparently that is also his crime.
Well of course. If he wasn’t “tough” on Cruz, then the charade would be plainly visible to all.
Wwell there is the probability he would not be on a show if he had. They went all out.
Of course he is suspect by his own actions. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
Be cautious.
Something I don’t understand about Republicans… It seems that every one of these guys has to kick the party worshipers in the teeth before the light bulb goes off…
Do you ever pay attention to their voting records? Cruz was never a mystery, he’s another progressive playing a conservative on TV… So are 98% of the rest.
No big mystery… Just pay attention!!
EXACTLY! So many votes that tell the real story.
Not a vote to recess. Not one.
So many cloture votes.
You can NAME EVERY conservative on Capitol Hill on one hand…ONE….
Really? I didn’t think we had that many!
The congressional records shows these people for what they are – frauds and scoundrels. They’re representatives alright… for themselves. Federalism has evolved into the monster that our founders feared.
Cruz seems weak and groveling here. He says he has used that word for a decade. Pretty poor use of the word. Does he even know the meaning? I think he should annouce his retirement and say he as family to take care of.
A better question is who exactly assaulted a police officer? Has anyone been charged with that? I didn’t see one person in all the footage I watched do ANYTHING to any uniformed officer, except follow their instructions to enter the capitol.
I saw people defend and protect themselves from Police brutality. Because these are white Trump supporters the Police beatings of Americans assembling, is excused. If this was MN and blacks, there would be statues, business shake downs and mid night candle vigils. I also saw, ANTIFA and paramilitary dressed individuals assaulting the Capital building. These were not Trump supporters but agitators and undercover FEDS making it appear this was done by a mob of Trump supporters. These FED agitators were there to prime the pump of chaos and direct the crowd to enter the building. I saw Trump supporters walking around, inside the Capital with no intent of taking over the Government, laughing, talking with the Police, cooperating, walking within the velvelt ropes, taking pictures and selfies. I believe nothing the corporate media, FEDS and dRATS have to say or report.
“I believe nothing the corporate media, FEDS and dRATS have to say or report.” To this I would add Republicans. I believe none of these people. Not a one.
That’s the best starting point to avoid battered conservative syndrome, an affliction FAR worse than Covid. IMHO.
Tucker did not point this out, did he?
Is it too late for President Trump to form the MAGA Party we so desperately need right now? The GOP is the enemy just as much as the DCP (Democrat Communist Party) is at this point and Cruz just proved it. How does President Trump expect even the majority of MAGAs to vote for Republicans this year? Many simply will not, out of pure self-preservation. If there was ever a need for a 3rd party in America’s entire history, it is today.
Too late or not, doesn’t matter, for reasons unknown to us but that we can only guess, he’s not going to do it.
I believe the reason for not creating a 3rd party is that creating a 3rd party WILL result in the more dangerous Dem/fascist party running the board and controlling, for the foreseable future, the WH, both Houses of Congress and most state governorships and legislatures.
A Republican party and a Trump inspired Patriot party will… will divide the Republican vote, period. And, we will lose everything.
Some say, even many, that we need to just bite the bullet and do it anyway but the cost WILL be, for a minimum of 8 years, the Dem/fascist/globalist party controlling the entire country as a totalitarian dictatorship. Can we survive that? I don’t think so.
Quite frankly, I am afraid to take that risk now. The Biden regime still has 3 more years to destroy the nation. In just one year they have already successfully dismantled most of Trump’s accomplishments.
Most likely, Trump accepted reality and recognized that our political system has never faired well with 3 political parties… and it won’t this time either. In recent memory, the Perot campaign proved that. What’s different now?
In addition, the extreme power that the existing fed operatives have — in the FBI, CIA, NSA, IRS, etc– to blackmail …. anyone, including the members of a new Trump party, must be seriously considered.
With a 3rd MAGA party, what guarantees do we have that the existing powerful Intel agencies will not do the same thing to the elected MAGA party members they have successfully done to the other 2 parties, and to most of the fed agencies and state govts? No guarantees. They really do have the power to do anything they want. That reality is still very shocking and scary to me.
CAN we even identify a true MAGA conservative and then get them elected to Congress?
We know the FBI infiltrates our MAGA groups. “Ray Epps” everyone shouts. How many are there already inside MAGA? Who are they? How do you identify them? Clearly, they will know what to say to appear to be MAGA.
It’s not hard to know the MAGA rhetoric. Just read this site and other similar sites, you’ll know what to say. In fact, I think there are clever people on this board who are likely leftist govt operatives. I have been accused of being a leftist troll for questioning Trump… which I find kind of amusing but many of us are legitimately paranoid.
IMO, only Trump can do the extremely hard work it will take to recover from the leftist/fascist anti-american Biden regime in 2024. In 2017+, Trump took us 2 steps forward… and in one year Biden/dems/rinos have taken us 4 steps back.
Look at the results of the Arizona audit? Nothing. Plenty of serious evidence of massive election fraud exists but it is unknown to the vast majority of Americans. The AZ report included language that Biden used yesterday to “prove” he won AZ by even more votes than the election results.
Look at the 60+ 2020 court cases? Nothing … even though the evidence of massive, nationwide election fraud is staggeringly obvious.
So many times I have been told there were 60+ court cases challenging the 2020 election results, all of which were lost. It’s a fair point. I respond that the judicial branch is also corrupt… and I guess even the Trump judicial appointees. Most view my response as extremist and nuts and I do not blame them for that view. It DOES sound extremist and nuts. It DOES sound extremist and conspiratorial to say the entire US govt is corrupt. No patriots inside a massive govt of 3+ million. I DO sound like the irrational one. The problem is… it’s true. I don’t know how we got to this extremely dangerous situation but we did. Now what? Civil War? That’s not going to work this time. Our foreign enemies will sweep in an take us if we fall into the chaos that’s attached to every civil war.
And, I do not see us/MAGA succeeding. I see us failing at every turn… wgich is depressing to witness. I see President Trump failing totally against a very dangerous and very powerful fascist totalitarian deep state.
Trump is still faced with constant law suits by corrupt NY state AGs trying to incarcerate him. That’s not nothing. It’s very serious… because they have all the power. Will Trump prevail? I don’t know. He’s little more than a sitting duck civilian right now with many, who DO have power, trying to destroy him.
We, The People, only have power IF we unite together against our totalitarian leaders. There are pockets of courageous patriots, many parents of scholl age children but our numbers are still few and there are NO protests going on. No marches. In fact, Jan 6th has managed to stop us from protesting for our rights. I bet MAGA could not even obtain the necessary permits to hold a protest. How many would FEAR attending?
So, as POTUS, Trump having … NO strategy, no plan, no team of trusted patriots inside the govt to truly expose and “drain the swamp” and stop the fascist/marxist globalist takeover of the US was seriously reckless and foolish. I am actually terrified that Trump could not put together a team of Patriots when he had the power to do so, as the POTUS. Did he even try? Did he realize, at some point, that it was hopeless? Did he actually devise a grand plan/strategy with a serious team of insider patriots, as I always believed he did, that is still functioning, behind the scenes, to save the Republic from dictatorship.
Yesterday Trump declared the Biden regime is taking us into communism. Didn’t say socialism. He said communism. Nobody saw that coming? He didn’t see that coming 4 years ago? NO plan? Really?!
Right– one man can’t do it alone. The horrifying reality is that… he was alone. True patriots inside a fed govt of millions no longer exist? I know some I do believe are patriots. But no one is doing anything. When you see failure, most arent willing to be attacked and destroyed with no hope of prevailing. There are a few heros- Bannon is one, Lindell — willing to take on a powerful and dangerous govt intel … but they are few and they are censured.
It is still SO hard for me to believe that there is NO ONE with any power, access to Intel, inside the fed govt, who is a patriot and was willing to join a President Trump team committed to DRAINING, not merely semi-exposing- the very dangerous, very powerful fascist/globalist swamp thay DOES control the US. No one willing to save the Republic from a fascist totalitarian hell?
IS everyone brainwashed except us? Or are we brainwashed to believe that no one but us/MAGA are patriots?
My sister, who is ex-military and IS a patriot. She loves her country, our country… but she despised Trump, did not vote for him b/c of the list of a 1000 “lies” the media presented to her every day, and she heard the clips herself and she hated his tweets… and there were quite a few I could not even defend b/c they were SO petty and unnecessary, some even stupid. I resorted to saying … PDJT is saying this stuff to DISTRACT the media away from his serious trade and other negotiations so the media will not try to ruin those deals bc they will be focused/obsessed with this stupid irrelevant crap he says on Twitter instead… and they were distracted. I still think that’s what Trump was doing and why he did it.
Trump is trashing McConnell now but what did he do when he had the POWER to control, expose, influence McConnell as POTUS and head of the party? He campaigned for McConnell and helped him get re-elected for another 6 years. WHF? And then McConnell turned on Trump to ensure the election was stolen from him. I don’t even know what you say to that. Trump got kicked in the teeth. “Thank you, let me have another.” Still, no one but Trump knows HOW to save the Republic economically and we are headed over the cliff.
Time to act and speak presidential, Donald! BE wise and inspiring in ALL that you say. Do not focus on a litany of your accomplishments so that it merely sounds narcissistic, like it’s about you. Be a visionary. Display wisdom, statesman ship with an historical perspective. You cannot JUST say Biden is taking us into communism. You must SHOW you know what communism is and how that is being accomplished now by this regime.
Repeat, over and over, the great inspiring speech you made b4 the UN. That was brilliant but few Americans heard it bc the media really did not play it on the air or discuss it.
Americans NEED to be INSPIRED. Do it. You are capable.
Read and listen to JFK’s speeches. He was a true student of HISTORY. He spent much of his childhood and young adult years studying … history. Have Victor Davis Hanson to dinner. Listen to JFK’s speeches. He was truly an inspiring speaker. America NEEDS to be inspired. We need to see through the prism of history what is happening to us today.
BE presidential, Mr. President. It’s not boring! The nation is desperate for wise, thoughtful leadership, someone who inspire us to remember who we are, how we became free… and who can articulate a VISION for the future of our nation … and for the free world… and HOW we get out of this totalitarian disaster.
HOW is the world under totalitarian “communist” seige? Tell us HOW. Show us you understand the terms you are use… and that you have a vision and a plan, that is wise and sober, to save … the free world from this catastrophe.
Yes, Donald, PLEASE be presidential. Please. I truly believe that at this time in history, no one but you can get the nation, and the free world, out of this very dangerous march toward global economic collapse and totalitarian tyranny. Saving the Republic and the free world will, and does now, require a non-politician… but a truly inspiring one.
You’ve written a 5 million word novel. Who will read it?
I did…and I concur.
I think there are a lot of people, including many right here in the Treehouse who feel the same as you.
Still, despite the seemingly overwhelming odds stacked against us and President Trump, please don’t forget that there is REAL proven power in mass prayer and large numbers of people imagining that the corrupt elements in government are defeated and replaced with God-fearing decent civil servants.
I want to believe in God’s mercy for us, and I pray for it… but Revelations is true and will happen.
Do we deserve God’s mercy… again? I don’t think we do as a nation or as a world.
Some generation will be the one required to endure the hell on earth predicted by Almighty God in Scripture, a hell so complete and terrible nothing like it has ever occurred before. It’s hard to even envision that time… in which the Bible declares “the living will envy the dead.” Why not us? I pray its not us but I do fear it might be.
Great power in prayer, yes! I do pray for God’s mercy. We must appeal to His mercy.
Hitler, Stalin and Mao– wow. In 40 years these 3 mere mortals managed to slaughter 100s of millions in brutal terror and billions were condemned to live as tormented slaves their entire lives.
It’s hard to imagine something worse than that but with the Anti-Christ unleashed and reigning, with great power, it WILL be worse, very much worse, incomprehensively worse. Are we that dreaded generation OR will God spare us once more? I don’t know.
So, yes, we must pray in mass numbers for the mercy of Almighty God. Please Lord, give us another chance to get it right even though we are sinners and do not deserve another chance. 🙏
President Trump is far too popular to untangle himself from the UNiparty construct. Think of him instead as an infiltrator.
It’s impossible for them to shake him off, and that is what keeps the MAGA embers burning. At least keeping up ‘appearances’ is what keeps MAGA on their radar, like a little alien space ship.
Can you imagine what we would do if the UNiparty tried to extinguish that flame entirely? If they said ‘party’s over, no MAGA for you!’ That would be the death of the UNiparty construct.
They are not that stupid.
At least -for now- they are still keeping up the two- party pretense. The wolf is still hiding in grandma’s bed, dressed in her nightclothes. That buys us extra time to rout them. But not that much.
Hairy Ted Cruz looks just like a fox
Acts like one too
This is another rino who needs to be defeated in his primary !
Ted is also the guy that during the 2016 presidential primary hung on til the bitter end (along with Kasich) when he had no mathematical way to get enough delegates to be the nominee. He then went along with the narrative that the delegates don’t have to cast their ballots for Trump even if he received the most votes.
He acts very much like Hilary, like he was promised to Republican ticket. Like it was his and President Trump took it away.
This attitude seeps out of his pores and mannerisms.
As an outsider,IMO, the GOP is FINISHED
Its Full of RINOs, turncoats and GOPe
Time to form a new party
Unfortunately our system is not designed for any short term success for 3rd parties. But beware of RNC and many other Republican orgs because they mostly support democrats with an “R”.
Calling it a “3rd party” is BS and is exactly what they want you to call it. How can it even be, when there is only “1 party” now.
As fellow Americans (presumed innocent) sit in maliciously imposed solitary confinement. Cruz et al can only prevaricate about this insipid crap and say nothing about the inhumanity of that malicious enforcement and the cruel and unusual punishment it represents.
Stuck. On. Stupid.
The bubble people are self-destructing before our eyes. The credence is gone.
At one time I too wanted a new party. But now I see and understand Trump’s position on the GOP. A maga takeover, and we stick together.
Best strategy, Sup, strongly agree.
Let the Apex Predator take the Republican party over, mud stomp the Bob Michel types, and replace the Pacaderme with a lion.
You must have missed Ron Paul’s treatment by the gopE when he was running for the gopE Presidential nomination. Then the gopE destroyed the Tea Party, and then ___, ____, ___…, ad nauseum. Keep dreaming.
The GOPe wouldn’t seat our Ron Paul delegates at the Tampa convention. Remember? And I still have my Ron Paul shirt, but I am labeled a terrorist and white rage domestic extremist terrorist if I wear it (I do anyway).
AUDIT THE FED!
Agree.
And yes, there was plenty of time after the 2020 fiascos.
DONE for me…
Come 2022 and 2024….I’m NOT RUNNING to any poll and PULLING a r tab UNLESS that person is a 100% TRIED< TRUE, CONSERVATIVE..NOT a RINO, GOPe, Dem-Lite, Moderate, …..
Anyone that runs against President Trump in the primary is not MAGA.
1) kept using deflection that he only meant terrorists to refer to people who assaulted cops but that is no where in his context or original statement so not true not just poorly worded
2) kept saying he always has said terrorist for those who assault cops well then there should be lots of tape lets check him on that
3) as above in one breath he says he was not stop all summer calling the people at BLM events who assaulted cops throughtout the summer terrorists but literally in next breath he casually the first time he says the word antifa he just calls them “rioters” Only once later in the interview does he finally say “antifa terrorists”. This shows that at his core belief he was not meaning what he was saying
4) lets be clear the definition of terrorist is someone who uses violence for political purposes so assaulting a cop by itself is not terrorism.
5) overall I like Cruz and support and thank him for a lot of what he has done but he is wrong here and Tucker is correct he is lying not mispoke. More reason thank God Trump beat him in the primary. I think this event was Cruz positioning himself to differentiate from Trump for 2024 and to try to gain favor from leftist media and voters “see I hate trump and his scum voters too”. And yet another reason he had better not run in 2024 and fully back Trump
He is being rewarded by his global masters.
When are ALL government workers and their family members going to be audited?
Politicians may begin the line on the LEFT.
As someone who would be audited, I would welcome that.
Agree, as a Florida public servant whose salary is on the Governor’s website along with every other Florida public servant’s. Audit away. The ones you need to really audit are the family of the politicians. “Follow the wives” (or sons, in Hunter’s case).
HIS WIFE is Wall St (Goldman Sachs…) WHAT DO YOU EXPECT…..He’s tainted, always been tainted and WILL FOREVER be tainted…Ted AIN’T conservative…Tx can DO BETTER….
Was he not specifically referring to last January 6th?
I read today a quote from the Wall Street Journal where the highly despicable Karl Rove said, “The GOP has a duty to condemn the January 6 riot and those who refuse to acknowledge it.”
When the Bushes were pretending to be Conservative, Karl Rove was obnoxiously omni-present. I wouldn’t be surprised if Cruz took his advice or was even employing Rove and his white board!
Rove means “Excuse me, I have to use this twig to scrape myself off of this shoe” in Swahili.
Why won’t that fat pig go stuff himself into a cannoli?
Hmmm, it just could be that Cruz is a lying sack of crap!
Lying Ted is his nickname.
Yeah, and Benny Johnson, a social media Republican darling who has a lot of President Trump supporters following, kept trying to reimage “Lyin Ted” into “Lion Ted”.
Faux Trump Supporter for media psyops.
Cruz is toast after yesterday.
He showed his true colors there is only willfully wrong on this or right.
When a Capitol Police senior officer murders an unarmed non-violent female at a protest, who is the terrorist? This is especially relevant when there are apparent paid government actors inciting the crowd to infiltrate the building and evidence of Capitol Police apparently inviting protesters to enter.
Shocking that Tucker and Ted would ignore the sacrificial slaughter of Ashley Babbit in the context of this interview involving false flag agitators and a massive coverup by Democrats and Uniparty Republicans of the unconscionable use of solitary confinement and malicious enforcement against some while the agitators are protected and walk free.
This is a pox on all of them. Cruz touched the 3rd Rail. Maybe they will realize the public’s overwhelming contempt of the political and institutional class and the overwhelming overarching gestalt that Congress and the SES has become a cesspool of predators and psychopaths.
Let them think of us hatefully as deplorable. We are comfortable in our contempt they are The Unredeemables.
Cruz and others like him overvalue their performances to play parlor games with the subhuman ilk of today’s political class. We rightly see them as playing too – playing along with the depravity and inhumanity of the consequences to carve out their own personal gains.
When Cruz and others actually take the gloves off, perhaps redemption will seem more worthy than it does today.
These bubble people really don’t get the totality of contempt we have for their complicity in playing along with the very worst in Congress while others suffer like rotting livestock in solitary confinement… for parlor games exploited by both sides. Their inhumanity is so transparent to the rest of us. They cannot see past the plank in their eye.
YES!
Using the Lefts language just plays into their hands. Thats following, not leading, it makes our side look weak. We need to define the battle field on our terms not theirs, thats why they chip away at all our laws, rules and norms and the GOPe looks around wondering what just happened and just accept it and move to the next hill to give up. Enough, we need real fighters, send the phony RINOs home.
Ted could learn a lot from MTG.
Not only that, but Tucker has ignored that at least one other woman died as the result of police actions.
Outstanding, GM.
Greg Kelleys show reminds us of Ashley every night. He has her family on regularly. I know it is just another cable show, but I get the impression Kelly is genuinely hurt, mad, and saddened by Ashleys murder.
Greg Kelly was raised by limousine liberals. Billy Clinton, Chuckles Schumer and B Hussein Obola couldn’t be fonder of his dad, former NYC Police Commissioner Ray Kelly.
I view Greg Kelly’s obsession with the 1/6 FIB sting as a flaw, not a feature. It’s a big club, and Kelly is firmly planted in it.
An excellent post
Since Babbit was not discussed, I keep wonder why? Why did Tucker not take it in this direction?
I am left wondering if the interview was played out according to a script, and why?
Tucker could have easily used Ashley as example of why Ted is lying. But he fid not. Why?
Why did Carlson play bad cop, giving Ted time to explain? Lots of time?
I do not think this interview was for us that were angry. I think it was for all the nevertrumps/controlling minority. Yesterday they stayed pretty quiet as all over social media their God-fearing, more-presidential-than-Trump, statesman was actually lying, openly lying.
This was for those, who with more time, would see the light and finally quit on their righteous guy.
With Tucker calling Cruz a liar when he tries to explain, the diehard followers automatically believe and defend Cruz. This is seen today where, unlike yesterday, they are commenting.
If Tucker would have went there, really talked about who was killed, Cruz would have lost many, opening an avenue for deprogrammimg to begin.
Instead, he just gave Cruz time to explain and throw in all the ways he is aware of FBI etc.
We were not the targeted audience. Well, actually we were the sub-category tarketed. Tuck gets to be a hero for calling him out and we forget about his election fraud failure/betrayal.
Tucker knew what he was doing. Just as he accuses Cruz of knowing.
He’s dead to me. My hubby never trusted him. I think I remember reading years ago that his wife was on the CFR, a global elite group.
Yessiree, ol’ Heidi Cruz was indeed on the Council For Foreign Relations!
Being a natural born citizen means the holder of that status has a natural allegiance to the United States of America. Ergo, one who is NOT a natural born citizen does NOT have that natural allegiance. THAT is the original and sole reason the Constitution’s Framers wrote that requirement into their document!
Ted Cruz is what you get when someone who does not have that natural allegiance is elected to ANY position of public trust. They FAIL to UPHOLD that trust. We have seen that same outcome over and over with the likes of non-natural born citizens John McCain, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Nikki Haley, Dan Crenshaw… and THAT’S just on the right wing of the uniparty!
Isn’t it about time We The People (collectively) wake up and quit inflicting ourselves with the by now well known consequences of electing non-natural born citizens, period?
In my opinion, we could save ourselves a lot of grief by simply learning a candidate’s birth status, and properly acting on that knowledge, before even considering ANY other qualifications he/she might have! Indeed, we, as a nation, have the scars to prove such to be worthy of consideration!
Jennifer Granhomey is just such a person as you describe. Oh Canada…..
Remember she said (many many years ago) in 5 years, you’ll be blown away?!
But what do we keep getting served? “OHMYGOSH! LOOKIT HER! A wonderful immigrant from Jamaica who singlehandedly ran the MARINES! And did you know she’s BLACK?! (She won’t let you forget.) Prove you aren’t WAYYYYCISSS and MISOOOOOGYNIST and vote for this new Repulsivan flavor of the week import candidate!!!”
That’s the new normal. That’s all we get served. Imports. Like they are better than we are whose ancestors built this nation (some of us have ancestors who literally bled to create it). Nope. Just nope. If I and those like me can’t be pushed and run and be elected as the R candidate, then F the R party so hard. The R party of semi-conservative rainbow people right off the boat is no longer my party and does not reflect my interests, needs, or wishes for my son’s future in HIS country.
Conservative White men no longer have a party. Period.
Ted’s done.
In this case sundance, plastic flatware and paper napkins would be on the table. It is not honorable to tempt….
My BS detector goes to 11 when I hear “Fat Dracula” yapp. I have ALWAYS believed this jerk and his Goldman Saks globalist wife were trash. I couldn’t watch much of this. I have no time for known liars.
While watching Cruz try to weasel out of this with the silly excuses he provided to Tucker, it occurred to me that President Trump has a real talent for assigning nicknames to people. The entire time I was thinking “Lying Ted Cruz.” When President Trump first gave him that nickname, it didn’t really register with me, because all politicians are such liars, but watching Cruz squirm last night made me see how the nickname was particularly fitting for him.
I think Cruz is completely out of touch with the GOP base and foolishly listened to some Frank Luntz type consultant who told him that the way forward for the GOP is to side with the Dems on all of this January 6 nonsense. He messed up and you could tell that he was aware of it. His attempts to justify it were pathetic. Run along, Lying Ted.
Cruz is out of touch because he is a RINO.
he is also a CANADIAN
Now, now, that’s CUBANADIAN.
Trump’s best nickname was low energy Jeb. Effn Brilliant.
I also really liked Goofy Elizabeth Warren. She is such an awkward, goofy woman. It’s really sad that we have these kind of people governing us.
Low energy Jeb! (please clap) Boosh.
I call him “Sh!t The Bed Ted” now..
That is the best description I’ve heard yet.
When do you know Lying Ted is Lying?
You guessed it. His lips are moving.
Sundance has had Cruz pegged for years.
I thought this was a “We can agree to disagree” difference of opinion….until yesterday.
Sundance, once again, was right all along.
Ted Cruz is the Covid Vaccine of Republicanism, once he reveals his actual soul.
He is finished as a credible person.
He will never be President.
Fool me once, Teddy….
Even if he wasn’t a booger eating RINO, he is not and will never be a natural born citizen. Lyin Ted is NOT eligible to hold the office of President.
It’s interesting that Cruz chose the Tucker Carlson show for the effort, and it’s interesting that Carlson gave him the opportunity.
Not very interesting.
Predictable is more like it.
It’s all just part of the D.C. Uniparty Kabuki, that’s played out daily for consumption by the gullible masses.
Yep. Exactly.
We are so past these highly paid media personalities and lying scumbucket pols who don’t give a flyin’ fig about taxpaying Americans being led to the killing fields via Covid, illegal hordes, letting criminals loose, cutting off our energy supply, crazy ass governors, corrupt DA’s, inflated food prices, psychopaths on school boards and a mess of other ways to skin us cats.
Poor Ted was “Taken out of context”……..Bawhahahaha……..Liar liar, Tucker set Lyin’ Ted’s ass on fire.
Ted Cruz has no clothes! Unfortunately neither do most politicians!
There was nothing heroic in the actions of the Capitol Police that left at least three people dead, hundreds injured and hundreds imprisoned and in solidarity confinement. Innocent until proven guilty, Ted?
What gets me is why Nancy Pelosi’s roll in not calling national guard in until after 5:15pm, just when dark enough the Camara’s lighting was lost to the west – a total of 2 national guard well built men ended the peaceful protest in under 30 seconds.
If they wanted it over they could have resisted their cute boomers and fake tear gas at 1:15pm, but Nancy needed the narrative to end trump.
For every “conservative” not to hang this day around her neck us absurdly corrupt, disgusting. To argue the police somehow did their jobs by retreating, understaffed, and using fake tear gas – when a million pissed off souls were approaching is beyond corrupt – Ted Cruz needs to delete himself, all of these fake republicans (funded by Singer) do.
What I am saying is the entire 1/6 protest was an illusion. There were no portapotties anywhere – that would piss anyone off, especially a million souls demanded the rigged election be investigated.
They used fake tear gas and boomers – until at 5:15pm just when getting dark, 2 national guardsmen ended the protest in less than 30 seconds (real tear gas) – they could have done that at 2pm just as well, but they didn’t, why?
The entire day was a coup against trump. So is/was covid and so/is what will happen on every election here forward – they will use covid to federalize elections. Hence the 1/6 narrative has been weaponized to centralize their power – it would seem most every elected official has been compromised by the communists. F’ing disgusting
Ted…..me thinks thou dost protest to loudly.
It was entertaining watching Ted try to tread water vs. Tucker.
Emailed Cruz yesterday……this Texan will not vote for him again. It’s too bad he has been swallowed up by the swamp…..or maybe he was just putting on a show before. Doesn’t matter…..’bye Ted.
Ted wasn;t walking his statement back, he was running it back. He
realized what a huge blunder it was…I wonder if he will now visit
with Trump to make things look good..
Cruz is smearing the real opposition for the RINO’s.
No more chances for RINOS.
Out damn spot!
vigorously counting spoons here
Maybe this reveal by Cruz will embarrass him into helping the January 6 prisoners? He is a Senator. I can’t believe he does not know who Ray Epps is either.
He is lying on Epps.
Too many constituents and Patriots have contacted him to not know.
Lyin’ Ted. Yep.
A while back, I went shopping for a mattress.
While looking at mattresses the salesman came over and started talking.
My BS alarm went off big time.
Immediately turned around and left the store.
Ted Cruz is that mattress salesman. 🙄😉😁
Sundance, You’re the Best. I only trust Trump, You and Us.. Someone pleas post the video of the Cruz interview in Cleveland with Trumps plane(Trump Force One) landing in the back ground..
Use Lyin’ TeddyBOYS words against him…
“Anybody that serves more than 2 terms in the Senate is corrupt.”
In this interview he called Antifa rioters not terrorists.
I’ll go right to the end. Senator Cruz, if you believe that THEY want to paint us as Nazi’s then you don’t give them ANY support for doing so. In that statement, you became an enabler for them. This is why my trust for the GOP in both chambers is at best 5 to 10 members (and I lean toward the short end of the stick). Anyone who thinks that party is going to fix this country is smoking Demo-crack.
THIS IS PRECISELY WHY CONSERVATIVES CAN NEVER, EVER WIN…BE SUCCESSFUL….
Dems will NEVER, EVER eat their own….will NEVER.
Don’t get me wrong, this was NEEDED and REQUIRED…BUT, you will never see the far left do anything like this to their own. republicans (little r), Conservatives, CANNOT live in the same party…CANNOT….talk all you want about 3rd party, indy’s, etc….BUT Ted Cruz (among hundreds) is the EPITOME….of WHY there is NEVER success on the CONSERVATIVE-side.
republicans (the general rank and file) on capitol hill, IN the party DESPISE Conservatives…ALWAYS HAVE, ALWAYS WILL.
THE bushes HATED Ronald Reagan…HATED, DESPISED him…the bush-types are the same in charge of the party today. Ronna McDaniel, Michael Steeles(a disaster), Colin Powell, Condelezza, Llz Cheney, Dick Cheney, Jeb, Lindsay Graham, Ted Cruz, Chris Christie, Nikki Haley, Mike Pence, Mitt Romney…. it goes on and on and on…THEY DESPISE Conservatives and WANT NOTHING to do with them, EXCEPT get their vote every 2Y and 4Y and then, GO POUND SAND CONSERVATIVES cause YOUR causes and YOUR wishes ARE NOT OURS…WE LOVE GLOBAL…UNIPARTY, BIG Govt, ONE WORLD ORDER…anchor babies, amnesty, Wall St, K-St, lobbyists….THAT IS OUR LOVE…NOT conservatism…
I don’t care that Tucker destroyed him..NOW TUCKER…DESTROY a few dems….please…DESTROY them….
I’ve been seeing this since the Nixon, Reagan days…REAGAN had to FIGHT the republicans MUCH MORE greater than the dems, far left…..it was THE PARTY that tried to destroy Reagan….and, that SAME PARTY exists more today than ever..
I’m sorry, just not buying it. If you are true you will say what is in your heart in front of whomever, especially if you are so “clever”. Did not happen. It is as if he is just saving face to see what will happen with elections. He wants another run for Pres. in 2024 so he is automatically not a Trump supporter. He is too ambitious in a sly way.
The let them eat cake crowd that lord over us are really not that wise. Trump gets my eternal gratitude for ripping the scab off and forcing everyone to see we need to heal our country. I get weary, however, we are living in history that will be written about. It’s important that YOU be on the victorious side to retell.
Live your best life everyday.
Ted shot himself in the foot again.
Sundance. Truly a great headline. Says it all ’bout Ted.
A stomach churning moment to see Cruz use the loaded language. As with so many Republicans, “here we go again…” with the trying to eanr a place in the absurdist conversation by conceding points to the feral Party. An act of futility. A display of cowardice, or perhaps erosion of moral courage.
I emailed Sen. Cruz yesterday in alarm (I am not a Texan) and demanded that if he knew of any actual terrorism he had a duty to identify it/them. I imagine many others made similar inquiries. Any way I am disappointed but not ready to give up on Mr. Cruz. We need all the allies we can get. Such a leaden feeling to see these retreats. Think Lindsey Graham. Ugh…
Sorry, but you are licking the hand of he who wants you in chains.
Ted Cruz an ally? HAHAHAAAAAAAHAAA!
Before Trump’s nomination in 2016, Cruz led the last ditch effort to deny the nomination at the convention, and force Trump to accept a Uniparty stooge as VP.
He’s tainted, and continues to genuflect to the Uniparty, to protect his career.
We simply cannot continue to support these monsters. They support tyranny. We cannot support them… ever. They want us slaves.
I have started asking people who or what is the Uniparty.
So far, the most common answer is, “China”.
TIT–Ted is Toast
I am not buying it. Cruz is dancing and stumbling.
My uncle was correct 30 yrs ago, theres not a Damb bit of differance between A Democrat or Republican member of the GOVERNMENT. Pays to listnen to your elders!
Whatever you think of his politics, he is incredibly savvy at stirring the pot and getting attention without rocking the UniParty boat. Were a freethinker he had an opportunity to “wake up” more people. If only he had asked about the three people missing from the FBI list from Jan 6.
Sad this is the best “conservative” representation we can achieve in Texas.
With Cruz, all is calculated. Tucker knows this and that was the crux of his rebuttal. He basically called him “Lyin’ Ted”.
Cruz is our enemy. Not an ally… an enemy.
Love the question “Who is Ray Epps”??? If Ted Cruz doesn’t know who Ray Epps is – Ted is not doing his job…figure it out Ted…We need some Truth !
Did you see Ray Epps owns a wedding venue?
https://www.yelp.com/biz/knotty-barn-queen-creek
Rocking R Farms is name also on the website.
It would be interesting to get the financials for his Knotty Barn wedding business right before Jan 5. If he was in debt or maybe he had a premonition that Covid would put a big dent in Knotty Barn in March, 2020 and somebody put a whole lot of grease in that palm.
In any case, there’s a bigger story there.
With the whistleblower in the election steal claiming he was paid $45,000 in total for the ballots he fixed,well, the deep state has deep pockets .
Zuckerberg
Epps isn’t hiding. He knows he’s protected by the people who pay him.
Correction: He THINKS he’s protected by the people who pay him, but there is no honor amongst thieves and traitors.
“Protected”? How many capitol police died after January 6th? Zero died from being attacked by protesters. Newsweek has it as FOUR SUICIDES. No one should dismiss this. They suicide people who know too much. Ray Epps would be easier to ‘suicide’ than he would be to protect.
Frankly, as far as I can see, his best protection would be for him to come out with public statements and to request local officials or even local organized militia or other patriots to come to his defense. They will kill him if he doesn’t.
All this just goes to show how out of touch with reality the DC GOPE are — no clue — no one not a Leftist Partisan loon believes the bs Cruz parroted — yet his staff no doubt vetted and wrote that zinger for him — no wonder the country is heading toward Venezuela level dysfunction….
Cruz is a RINO/Globalist …
Ted is/was not the only one. Read the Congressional Record of 1/6/2021. There were many “republicans” who almost wet their pants to make gooey speeches about “the insurrection,” etc., that were as revolting and self-serving as those by the democrats. It was almost like they were prepared in advance.
We need to out these men and women right now. Anyone who says the words “insurrection” or “terrorist” in regard to Jan 6 is immediately disqualified to hold office. This must be our anti-shibboleth. Saying such things means that you belong to them.
Both of our Tennessee Senators (Blackburn and Haggerty) reversed their positions on election fraud following January 6th. Both used “weasel words” to describe what happened, so put them on the list to be outed.
They were. They’re making their Uniparty bones here. In or Out, and they chose In… the Uniparty.
I say we take them at their word.
Republicans and Democrats are two sides of the same filthy coin.
mostly true with elected officials. covid is a litmus test and rand paul and ron desantis are a little better than most anything in the democratic party at this time, though manchin and tester voted the right way in december (but since the house is a no, it is not a true test).
^^this^^
You’re a Senator or Representative, and nominal member of the party whose presidential candidate was just reportedly defeated in a highly suspect election.
How suspect? There’s a rather large group of citizens gathered in your city (some in your place of business) to express their view of the matter.
You have choices to make which will reflect your relative loyalties and political values.
Thank you for your candor.
NOT ONE RECESS APPOINTMENT IN FOUR YEARS!
Time to clean the ENTIRE party of these opportunists.
Trump also left office with record number of “acting” heads due to the slow walk of confimations of appointees in the Senate. It’s amazing he accomplished so much with that much resistance.
Not one Senator allowed PDJT recess appointments. Not even Hawley. Why?
Nor Rand Paul.
The GOP is not fixable. Trump needs to start his own party. Millions of us have awakened to the fact that the Republicans are never gonna be what we want them to be and would follow Trump and the MAGA party, or whatever he chooses to call it.
4 people and I tried to start the American Conservative Party about 10 years ago. The two parties have made the state requirements to get on the ballot extremely difficult. Trump has money to hire people to do what is necessary, but the odds are stacked against success. We finally quit trying.
easier to reform the party imo. the base has changed a great deal and “independent” sheeple/sleeple in the middle are waking a bit too. before this covid thing is through more will still. primary the worst. some will die and retire. persistence is the key.
https://www.theepochtimes.com/mkt_morningbrief/prime-age-mortality-up-40-percent-majority-not-covid-19_4196936.html?utm_source=Morningbrief&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=mb-2022-01-07&mktids=b4d2347e312eb74189c4b28b5d3304b7&est=n04jy5s0MrE0Z2OJNyN8%2FlF7t9FlvXDFKL8Ib%2BhnQudwL9vgg6nTOfi%2Fk%2BJk5bo%3D
BS. They will simply start saying what the base wants to hear during their campaigns and then they will do the opposite once in office. Nothing is gonna get fixed this way. And even if it can be fixed this way you, me, and everybody reading this will be long dead before it happens. Personally, I doubt it will happen within the next 50 years unless some major event speeds up the process.
Yeah, starting another major political party is hard but it has been done before. The GOP is FUBAR’ed and that’s a fact.
In response to your first paragraph, then we have to vet candidates better and not be so easily bought off. The comments on this board regarding their regret for previously supporting Cruz demonstrates that.
Another one that is all mouth and no substance is Sen Kennedy from Louisiana. He knows all he has to do is make some smart alecky comment deriding the Dems to keep us entertained, and he’s got it made in the shade. We have to quit being so easily bought off is our problem.
At least you made an effort. I’m sure that made an enemy of the GOP too because there is nothing they hate more than competition for campaign funds.
I would be a charter member of whatever “America First” party President Trump starts. I understand completely that it will years before we would have a chance of winning a national election. But we would almost immediately dominate the 20+ state legislatures, and we’ll elect enough representatives to ensure that neither the republicans or democrats have a majority in the house. 50 years or so of divided government might be just what it takes to save this country.
I think that President Trump has started his own party. In the best tradition of corporate takeovers, he now owns the GOP. I expect the mid-term election will dramatically confirm the takeover.
If he owned the GOP then they wouldn’t all be trying to take him out. Yes, the GOP will win the mid terms, but will it really make a difference in how they govern? I doubt it. We all thought it would when they took over the house and senate during the Obama years, but they turned around and funded everything he wanted to do, as they made a show of opposing him with empty words.
Thé GOP is split. The MAGA voters and the RINO establishment who are currently in power, which we aim to correct.
I think what you wrote has a lot of merit. Ted Cruz came crawling back to Tucker after he shot himself in the head. Although he made things worse by coming back on, he knew he had no choice.
What that means is that the rest of the Rinos who will run for Pres now know they need to fine tune their message to appeal to us. We need to be very careful when this shift occurs so we are not so easily deceived.
Forming a third party would be a mistake. It would be like Ross Perot running as a Reform Party candidate. You’re just guaranteeing that the conservative vote would be split, which allows the Democrats to win. (Kind of like the Green Party split the liberal votes in 2016. https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2016/07/13/hilarious-turn-of-events-third-party-candidates-hurt-clinton-more-than-trump) After the mainstream media has lied and bashed President Trump for 6 years, too many conservatives would vote for the GOP candidate rather than President Trump. A better solution is that President Trump needs to take over the GOP and enforce some kind of party loyalty or else the GOP cuts off their funding.
The Republican party was born of the frustration with the “Uniparty” of the time. Dan Bongino, for example, knows this and yet STILL suggests forming a new party to replace the Democrats and Republicans is unworkable and would result badly. How close to the edge do we need to be?
All Dan Bongino ever does is describe the problem. I don’t need it explained to me. I need actual results and we’re not going to get them by re electing the same establishment Republicans over and over. And even when we get a few real politicians who care about us voters, they never acquire any real power within the party because, in order to do that, you have to concentrate on fund raising instead of fixing the damn country. The fund raisers are the leaders of the party and we get no say in it.
He does that so that MAGA fails and dies off, like the Tea Party.
Here’s the link to the record: CREC-2021-01-06.pdf (congress.gov)
I don’t have a cloud storage platform to save it for sharing. If someone has one, it should be saved.
In addition, they all keep repeating “words matter” in their BS speeches.
I was going to post a list compiled by doing a word search for “insurrection” or “insurrectionist,” but there’s a lot. Plus, they don’t list parties only Mr. or Ms and their name.
