  • Ted Cruz "hates communists"

    From JAB@21:1/5 to All on Sat Jun 21 16:57:15 2025
    Ted Cruz "hates communists" because Cuban President Fulgencio Batista,
    who was *not* a communist, imprisoned and tortured Cruz's father for
    helping Fidel Castro, who *was* a communist and who freed Cruz's
    father from the non-communist prison. Proving, once again, that Cruz
    speaks absolute rubbish.

    Ooo, that's rich. Ted Cruz has had an impressive political career,
    considering he is truly 10 pounds of shit in a 5 pound bag.

    He speaks with a forked tongue
    ============================

    Senator Ted Cruz 2013 on Obama attacking Syria:

    "The residual presidential authority to act militarily in the absence
    of a declaration of war is based on an imminent, direct threat to the
    United States."

    "[Acting] would be contrary to the Constitution"

    Senator Cruz 2025 on Trump attacking Iran: "A single bombing run,
    historically, has not been understood to require congressional
    authorization," Sen. Ten Cruz said.

    Good gracious the hypocrisy is so deep you almost need boots to wade
    through it. The entire government, just awful.
