Ted Cruz just stepped in it

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

It’s Easter Sunday, meaning we can expect Ted Cruz to say something roughly as tone-deaf and ignorant as he would say any other day. Sure enough, Cruz tried to take a bizarre, dishonest, and dangerous stand about… well, whatever he’s trying to say here:

I’m going to go play T-Ball, on a paddle board, at the beach, with my kids, while worshiping God on Easter Sunday. Fortunately, I live in Texas—where we protect public safety, but aren’t authoritarian zealots—so they won’t arrest me! https://t.co/7w2qCIys34

Nice try, Ted Cruz. But we all know that no one would ever go within six feet of your creepy self anyway.
