Ted Cruz flames out

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.

Ted Cruz is morally and factually in the wrong on every single political issue, but he sure does love trying to pretend his depraved position is somehow the high ground. Cruz is at it again, this time trying to deflect from his own felony insurrection.

Ted Cruz tweeted this today: “Things the Senate should be focusing on instead of Democrats’ impeachment: -Passing #COVID relief. -Reopening our economy. -Getting our kids back at schools.”

There are a number of falsehoods contained in his tweet. First, the Democrats are in fact leading the way on all of these issues, while also impeaching Trump, even as the Republicans are trying to obstruct all of the above. Also, Cruz is afraid of Trump’s impeachment trial because it’ll serve as a reminder to the American public that Cruz also played a criminal role in inciting the U.S. Capitol domestic terrorist attack.
