Ted Cruz Had A Full-Scale Hissy Fit During A Press Conference, And You Have To See It

Maybe he needs to switch to decaf or get some therapy for anger management, but Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R) quite clearly needs to do something about the way he behaved at a press conference this week.

Along with several other GOP senators, Cruz was about to start the presser when a reporter asked why he and the others weren’t wearing protective masks to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

But the reporter might just as well have asked Cruz if he would admit that he’s the notorious Zodiac Killer, according to Mediaite:

Cruz noted that “as far as I know, everyone here has been vaccinated, has been double vaccinated, been boosted.”

“On the question of hypocrisy, you just asked, you people at the podium are speaking without masks. Just once, I’d like to see a reporter say to Joe Biden when he,” said Cruz, who slammed both his fists on the podium, “stands at the damn podium in the White House without a mask, ‘Mr. President, why aren’t you wearing a mask?’”

And Cruz was just getting warmed up, quickly adding (along with wild hand and arm gesticulations):

“Just once, I’d like to see you say to Jen Psaki, the White House press secretary, when she stands,” continued Cruz, who slammed both of his hounds on the podium, “at the podium with no mask, ‘Ms. Psaki, why don’t you have a mask?’”

“The questions are only directed at one side, and I got to say that the American people see the hypocrisy,” said Cruz.

The American people also see a wild man who is losing what’s left of his mind right in front of us.

It’s fine to say you don’t appreciate the hypocrisy, but it needs to be pointed out that President Biden always shows up to a speech, press conference, or other event wearing a mask, then removes it before he speaks. Cruz, on the other hand, showed up sans mask and tried to make a false equivalency that only served to make him look like the crazy guy at work everyone avoids out of fear he might blow a gasket and start taking hostages.

How deranged is Ted Cruz? He still believes he’ll be president one day. He won’t, and his unhinged ranting about masks is evidence of why.

Ted Cruz’s Daughter Slams Him On TikTok: ‘I Really Disagree With Most Of His Views’

Caroline Cruz is the 13-year-old daughter of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), and based on a video she posted to TikTok, it sounds like she isn’t exactly a fan of her father.

The Dallas Observer reports that Caroline spilled lots of secrets regarding her father and his extremist views with the internet:

In a recent video posted to TikTok, Cruz’s teenage daughter Caroline tells her followers about the pros and cons of being a senator’s kid. On the plus side, she says, she gets to travel and sometimes receives gifts and candy in the mail. Downsides include the fact that security has to shadow her wherever she goes, such as on walks through the neighborhood and to her friends’ houses.

Next, Caroline reveals another, more surprising tidbit.

“A lot of people judge me based upon him at first glance,” Caroline said, “but I really disagree with most of his views.”

Many social media users noted how unhappy Caroline looks in photos of her with her family. Then again, if your dad was #CancunCruz, you’d probably be morose, too.

Caroline also notes in her video that when she wore a crop-top for the Christmas photo shown above, her parents made sure and altered the picture so she wasn’t showing her stomach.

Cruz’s daughter says there are other things she hates about her father being a public figure:

“If I want to go on a walk through the neighborhood or to my friend’s house or something, I have to have two security guards behind me the entire time.”

Additionally, Caroline Cruz reveals that she considers herself to be bisexual, which is certain to enrage her father, who has long been an anti-LGBTQ extremist.

One thing is certain: Caroline Cruz is already a better person than her old man has ever been or ever will be. Good on you, young lady!

Viral Video Shows Ted Cruz’s iPhone Humiliating Him For Saying He ‘Believes In Free Speech’

Texas GOP Sen. Ted Cruz got embarrassed when his iPhone fact-checked him as he was bashing “Big Tech” as part of Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest, which was held in Phoenix.

Cruz was blasting away at tech companies:

“Big Tech, they are hard left. They’re not just Democrats. They’re to the left of the Democratic Party. And they’re trying to drive the Democratic Party left. And, you know, listen, I’m someone who believes in free speech.”

No sooner had the words “free speech” left Cruz’s mouth than Siri, the Apple iPhone virtual assistant, told him:

“Something went wrong. Please try again.”

Cruz tried to laugh the whole thing off, remarking:

“Well, Big Tech is getting mad. Siri just said, ‘Something went wrong. Please try again.’

“I’m actually perfectly happy that Siri got mad. Sorry there, Siri.”

However, as “perfectly happy” as Cruz wanted us to believe, be sure and note in the video that he immediately hands his phone to someone (probably a staffer) and continues with his anti-tech blathering.

Twitter users then joined the fun:

If Cruz hates “big tech” so damn much, shouldn’t he refuse to tweet, post on Facebook, or use a cell phone? Put your money where your fat mouth is, Teddy. Otherwise, it’s just another publicity stunt gone wrong.

Fauci Mocks Ted Cruz: ‘I Should Be Prosecuted?! What Happened On Jan. 6, Senator?!’

Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has had quite enough of blowhard Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and he’s fighting fire with fire when it comes to reminding the Texas Republican of the controversial (and possibly illegal) actions he took to try and keep failed, one-term former President Donald Trump in office.

Fauci was interviwed by CBS News and was asked by host Margaret Brennan about some of the contentious hearings the doctor has been subjected to in the Senate. He told her:

“Anybody who spins lies and threatens and all that theater that goes on with some of the investigations and the congressional committees and the Rand Pauls and all that other nonsense, that’s noise … that’s noise. I know what my job is.”

Brennan then asked about something Cruz had said:

“Senator Cruz told the attorney general you should be prosecuted.”

Fauci laughed and replied:

“I should be prosecuted?! What happened on Jan. 6, senator?!”

Brennan then followed-up by asking:

“Do you think that this is about making you a scapegoat to deflect from [former] President Donald Trump?”

Fauci:

“Of course! You have to be asleep not to figure that one out.”

Dr. Fauci is a scientist. He doesn’t have time for politics; he’s too busy trying to save lives and make sure we’re ready for the next COVID variant that may threaten this country.

Ted Cruz, on the other hand, has been called “the most hated man” in the U.S. Senate. He’s a petty, sniveling human carbuncle who needs to be investigated and expelled from Congress.

Ted Cruz Owns Himself When He Attempts To Troll Joe Biden With A Dirty Limerick

Someone needs to stage a social media intervention and keep Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) away from Twitter, because once again his attempt to troll someone has come back to bite him in the most humiliating manner.

HuffPost reports:

(Cruz) responded to President Joe Biden’s Thanksgiving plans with the first line of a limerick, and Twitter users thought it was a poetic self-own.

Following reports that Biden will celebrate the holiday with family on the Massachusetts island Nantucket, Cruz tweeted this reference to the “there once was a man from Nantucket” limerick that in some versions is a bit, er, crude.

What’s the big deal about Biden spending Thanksgiving on Nantucket? After all, it was “Cancun Cruz” who ran away from his Lone Star State constituents in the middle of a ice storm earlier this year, hopping a plane to Mexico with his family. He later blamed it all on his daughters.

It didn’t take long before social media turned Cruz’s failed attack right back on him in devastating (and brilliant) fashion:
