Ted Cruz Walks Right Into A Spectacular Self-Own When He Complains Joe Biden Doesn’t ‘Respect’ MAGA Republicans

Even though he never gives respect to anyone other than people who don’t deserve it (i.e. Donald Trump), Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is angry with President Joe Biden for saying in a stump speech this week that he doesn’t “respect these MAGA Republicans.”

Why would anyone respect the members of a death cult? Are we supposed to respect Jim Jones and David Koresh? If so, count me out.

The MAGA Republicans are also cultish and devoted to the Donald and whatever he does or says. They would follow him off a cliff like lemmings if he told them to. So why do they deserve even a shred of respect?

That statement from the president led Cruz to respond.

Really, Ted? You’re going to take that attitude considering how you repeatedly disrespected Barack Obama and every other member of the Democratic congressional delegation?

Keep in mind just a few of the more disgusting things Cruz has said over the course of his political career:

  • Senator Ted Cruz, the conservative Texas Republican considering a run for the presidency, lashed out at President Barack Obama during a visit to New Hampshire on Sunday, saying his administration had repeatedly trampled on the Constitution.
  • According to Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, President Barack Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran is essentially financing terrorism. And he’s not backing down after the president called his comments “outrageous.”
  • In the wake of the Paris terrorist attacks, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) said President Obama is not interested in protecting the United States.

But now Cruz wants respect? Instead, he got hit with a Twitter two-by-four.

Crime Donald Trump WTF?!

Trump Urges FBI Agents To Revolt Because What Hillary Did Was Much Worse Than Him

Donald Trump is terrified. It’s quite obvious by the crap he’s been posting on his failing Twitter imitation, Truth Social.

The disgraced ex-president is now suggesting that FBI agents need to stage a revolt and overthrow the leadership of the agency because what Hillary Clinton did in regard to classified information was much worse than the crimes he’s suspected of having committed.

When are the great Agents, and others, in the FBI going to say “we aren’t going to take it anymore,” much as they did when James Comey read off a list of all of Crooked Hillary Clinton’s crimes, only to say that no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute. The wonderful people of the FBI went absolutely “nuts,” so Comey had to backtrack and do a FAKE INVESTIGATION in order to keep them at bay. The end result, we won in 2016 (and did MUCH better in 2020!). But now the “Left” has lost their minds!!!

Who has lost their mind? Is it the left, or is it the deranged senior citizen yelling into the internet ether as if doing so will somehow save his ass now that his crimes have risen to the level of espionage and treason?

Also, that call for revolt by FBI agents is likely yet another crime that can be added to the growing list of offenses the Justice Department can seek an indictment for.

Trump’s Social Media Site Is On The Verge Of Financial Collapse

Less than two years since it was founded and went into operation, Donald Trump’s social mediate site, Truth Social, is unable to pay its bills and on the verge of financial collapse.

The Washington Post reports that Truth Social has no reliable source of income, which is likely to doom it:

Six months after its high-profile launch, the site — a clone of Twitter, which banned Trump after Jan. 6, 2021 — still has no guaranteed source of revenue and a questionable path to growth, according to Securities and Exchange Commission filings from Digital World Acquisition, the company planning to take Trump’s start-up, the Trump Media & Technology Group, public.

The company warned this week that its business could be damaged if Trump “becomes less popular or there are further controversies that damage his credibility.” The company has seen its stock price plunge nearly 75 percent since its March peak and reported in a filing last week that it had lost $6.5 million in the first half of the year.

How bad are things at Truth Social? The site is on the verge of lacking a hosting service, which would render it unable to appear on the web:

There are signs that the company’s financial base has begun to erode. The Trump company stopped paying RightForge, a conservative web-hosting service, in March and now owes it more than $1 million, according to Fox Business, which first reported the dispute.

The company has also been unable to trademark its entity name, which means anyone can start up at similar site and name it the very same thing, which would further erode efforts to build a loyal audience:

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office this month denied its application to trademark “Truth Social,” citing the “likelihood of confusion” to other similarly named companies, including an app, “VERO — True Social,” first released in 2015.

Usage is also fading, especially since the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago, with its views plummeting to about 300,000 a day, down from 1.5 million on the day of its launch.

Looks like the “great businessman” is about to destroy yet another company.

Don Jr. Grosses Out The Internet By Posting A ‘Redacted’ Photo Of His Dad’s Groin

Always eager to prove his devotion to a man who allegedly used to physically abuse him, Donald Trump Jr. posted a photo on Instagram showing his father’s crotch with a black bar over and a message that reads:

“Redact this!!!”

A post shared by Donald Trump Jr. (@donaldjtrumpjr)

Don Jr. also posted an image on Twitter showing one page of the redacted affidavit released Friday by the Justice Department that lays out exactly why the FBI had to serve a search warrant on the Mar-a-Lago resort where disgraced, one-term, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump currently lives:

HuffPost notes that even though the affidavit was indeed redacted, it still contained details that are very bad news for the ex-president:

The affidavit, although heavily blacked out, detailed repeated requests by federal officials for boxes of documents that the former president had stashed at his Mar-a-Lago estate when he left the White House. It showed that highly classified information was haphazardly stored at the private country club that includes his residence. The information contradicted Trump’s claim that officials only had to ask and they would have been given the material.

The National Archives first reached out about retrieving records from Mar-a-Lago in May 2021, according to the affidavit. Trump’s aides responded later that year that they had 12 boxes ready to be picked up, and the National Archives eventually left with 15 boxes in January.

FBI agents searched Trump’s Florida estate on Aug. 8 and took away dozens of additional boxes, including 11 packets of classified documents. Among that set was a batch labeled with the highest classification markings, meant for review only in secure government facilities.

Don Jr. (a.k.a. Traitor Tot), got plenty of mockery on Twitter for his tweet, with most of those who responded reminding the former president’s eldest son that his old man is in some very deep sh*t.

3 Details In The Mar-a-Lago Warrant Affidavit Point To Trump Being Indicted: Report

Even though the affidavit released in redacted form by the Justice Department today leaves many questions unanswered, an attorney who specializes in national security law says three details we did get to see point to failed, one-term former president Donald Trump being indicted.

In a column he wrote for The Daily Beast, Bradley Moss explained “three essential points” he sees in the affidavit:

Trump was in unauthorized possession of national defense information, namely properly marked classified documents. He was put on notice by the U.S. Government that he was not permitted to retain those documents at Mar-a-Lago. He continued to maintain possession of the documents (and allegedly undertook efforts to conceal them in different places throughout the property) up until the FBI finally executed a search warrant earlier this month.

With that framework having been established, Moss continues:

That is the ball game, folks. Absent some unforeseen change in factual or legal circumstances, I believe there is little left for the Justice Department to do but decide whether to wait until after the midterms to formally seek the indictment from the grand jury.

Trump doesn’t even have any sort of plausible defense, Moss notes:

All in all, this case should and in my opinion will result in an indictment. Sure, an indictment does not equal a conviction. Trump is still assumed innocent until proven guilty. There are unknown variables like whether the prosecution would occur in Florida or in D.C. We do not know what evidence Trump might have to substantiate his declassification claim. And we do not know what the courts would say about his various arguments. Get the popcorn ready either way.

Tristan Snell, who prosecuted the ex-president for his Trump University scam, agreed with Moss:

“The DOJ’s Trump affidavit was basically an early draft of what will become the DOJ’s Trump indictment.”

Time for Donald Trump to finally pay the price for his lifetime of crime.
