Sen. Ted Cruz Facing Backlash After Cancun Trip Amid Texas Crisis | NBC Nightly News
Cancun Cruz a product of a political asylum from Cuba, now destroying democracy of the country who adopted his family roots. Shameless self serving insurrectionist in disguise as an american.
Ridiculos los de este canal porque “Satanizan a este gran hombreâ€Ââ€Â
TED CRUZ DOESN'TT KNOW HIS JOB IS TO SERVED AMERICAN PEOPLE BUT HE RUN AWAY BECAUSE HIS ARROGANT DON'T LET HIM TO THINK!!!!!
Kool
Wake up! Do not be deceived by "heartwarming" baloney or clever manipulations! The "Federal" Reserve just gifted $2 TRILLION to its banksters buy their uncollectible, mortgage-backed bonds in 2019 to 2020, when they knew that if the banksters attempted to sell such bonds, they would have had to sell them at ludicrously low prices: particularly, because real estate has been in a huge bubble for years and this pandemic has prevented so many businesses from opening, resulted in their insolvency and defaults on their rents and mortgages, and will result in many, many commercial landlords also being in default on their mortgage-backed bonds given to the banksters.
Will anyone give even a fraction of such sums to the poor in Texas or those ordinary Americans who now face huge bills to repair their burst pipes or to buy water to give to their families because the water supply became contaminated? NEVER. There will be federal loans, which the Texas poor and middle class will have to pay for the next decade(s.) They will not get bailouts, because they do not control the USA, like the banksters control it.
(The deceptively named "Federal" Reserve is actually owned by the ultra-rich who own banks that own the shares in the district banks of the "Fed." Those ultra-rich (the "banksters") always cause the "Fed" to pretend to act in the best interests of all Americans, while it actually keeps funneling TRILLIONS in funds to those banksters, who own it and control the US media as reported in Forbes Magazine, which reported that 15 billionaires own US media. See "Audit Of The Federal Reserve Reveals $16 Trillion In Secret Bailouts" in countercurrents d o t o r g.)
With this covid pandemic, I also must point out to all minorities but particularly to African-Americans, that you are being fooled by those in power with nonsense, like the tv shows "American Gods," into believing that things are changing. They are not, because those in power just want you to keep voting for them even though they secretly despise you and keep giving them power while you get nothing back, have to attend lousy schools, get inadequate nutrition from companies, like fast food companies that know that their food is hurting you, not qualify for significant sums in student loans, then not be able to get a decent job, and if you got any student loans, have to pay them for the rest of your life, because they are not dischargeable in bankruptcy anymore.
Vote for your own people of your own race, poverty level, ethnic group, and religion, who will actually care about you and act in your own best interests and not for the corrupt "elites" who never represented your interests and got the $2 TRILLION in bailouts these last two years or $29 TRILLION during the last bailouts. See "Bernanke’s Obfuscation Continues: The Fed’s $29 Trillion Bail-Out Of Wall Street" in Huffingtonpost. See "The Fed's $29 TRILLION bailout of Wall Street" in multiplier effects d o t o r g. Take it from a fellow minority member.
However, to all of you poor whites, wake up! You have also been getting the shaft for decades, albeit those who have been wielding it may have sometimes been of your own racial group. Support people who might care about you, because they come from the same position and poverty level and will return to it after they leave office. Not everyone is a crook. The banksters want you to give up, assume everyone is a crook, and just vote for and accept their crooks.
Ted Cruz sunbathing, swimming & drinking Tequila with friends in Cancun while his constituents are dying of Hypothermia!!!This is the public servant that you voted to make Texas Great Again.
Ted Cruz is a Canadian born in Calgary, Alberta. If you Yankees don't like it DEPORT him.
They shouldn't have included his kids in the photos though
Repulsive as always.
The reason why this is Is happening in Texas is due to the deregulation of gas in the fossil fuel industry in the 1990s. This results from the big oil and alike working with the GOP for deregulation, and now Texans are feeling the brunt of it. And Ted Cruz, A despotic senator, would betray his own country for his loyalty to Trump, the master despotic
this is texas… this is senator of texas, a man who visited mexico in the middle of pandemic.
Book your Cancun Mexico getaway at 202-224-5922 and tell them the Texas Senator Ted Cruz sent you.
A True Championship Dirtbag !
I think your news agencies are making this a scene to discredit
and he’s still the best politician you’ve got in Texas 😂
INSTEAD OF HELPING THE POOR FOLKS SUFFERING IN TEXAS HE DUMPED EM!!
TC IS A TWO FACES HE IS NOT WELCOMED TO MEXICO, HE ALWAYS ATACK MEXICO,WTF DID HE GOES THERE? SHAME ON THIS GUY…
Why is no one blaming our seated president for not sending federal disaster relief?
Senators have six year terms. Cruz is into year two….four years to go so he doesn't give a rat's @@@ about what people think….no doubt in four years Texans will yet again vote this slimy person back into office.
Ted Cruz is a coward.
The people in Texas is going to have to vote this man out of office. They are the only ones who can remove him office. All these trumpsters and Qanon that are serving in our federal and state government, we'll have to get out and vote them out of office. government
Oh.. maybe your kids wanna go to Disneyland… away you go!! You looked very cozy..short sleeve shirt in airport…drinks and food on the plane.. maybe your kids will ask you to jog on the freeway!! Hey let us know the one.. I would say go back to Canada..but they don't deserve that.. maybe Trumppy will take you in… doubt that
Newsflash: no he’s not. Johnathon Sullivan dc rioter is claiming Netflix will do a documentary on him inciting the riots, how did nbc miss this?
It gets funnier too, just today AOC was caught fund raising almost 4 million to Texas for the disaster relief
Um ? Mr Cruz has dual citizenship.. Texican
Cruz caught in Cancun implementing Biden's new Immigration Policy (bring illegals to US to wait for their court date, vaccine, free college and citizenship). Must be at least a family of 4 in that suitcase. LOL
Cruz is a climate change denier.
Resign
age 10 and 12 are old enough to understand why they shouldn't go vacation at that time,.
Resign, resign, resign.
He needs to be fired.
Resign, resign, resign!
IS HE BLAMING IT ON HIS DAUGHTERS??????? WHAT A SLIME Q SLIMEDOG
He deflecting blame he should be removed from power, hope he loses support and votes for this.
You know I would have stayed in Texas to look after the old and the young if I were a senators and it would have been a privilege. I mean ted Cruz couldn’t even pretend to care about Texans being the senator of that huge state. Wow how COCKY AND CONFIDENT was he when making all the climate change AND OTHER WAR speeches in the senate. Well it’s come to bite him up his backside. SERVE HIM RIGHT.
How about saying TEXANS are calling on CRUZ to resign INSTEAD of making this partisan by claiming it is “democratsâ€Â. It’s this type of slanted reporting that further divides the people and is narrow focused & shortâ€â€sighted
Cruz doesn’t care about anyone in Texas he’s a chicken
These spineless backstabbers keep throwing each other under the bus. Calling each other names, calling each others' wives ugly, etc… Let's hope their kids grow up to see them for the super flawed humans they were/are.
Like so many before have discovered you need to protect your family. When your country fails to provide the basic services, you must cross the Mexican border.
Ted is in vacation so leave him alone. Why won't nbc report on the Coimo scandel that even AOC and left wing pundit Alec Baldwin agrees should be investigated. NBC has their priorities skewed
Blames his children??
TY AOC of NY and O'Rourke for your Texan relief efforts.
Cruz's entire family lacks the necessary compassion of an elected official
Cruz showed his true colors. RESIGN.
Cancun Cruz should Resign!
Didn't you lot voted for Ted Cruz?
