It would appear Ted Cruz is on vacation in Cancun

Yes, as a grown ass woman working at Goldman Sachs, i definitely can’t fly with two tweens on my own.

—person who has traveled alone internationally with her own similar-aged kids

I’ve flown alone with two tweens with autism, one severe.  

Ted’s excuse is so outrageous because it is so unbelievable.  He should have had his PR person come up with a better one. 

His return trip was booked this morning. He is stuck in economy.   

What a despicable human being. Too bad the majority of voters in TX don't seem to think so. 


I'm rather looking forward to the reports of the reception Cruz will likely receive when he steps off the plane later this afternoon. 

He thought he could get there and hide. He forgot that the planet has cameras and social media. Silly man.........

Yep. They could have had Beto, but SOSHULIZM!!!!!

Don't you ever get tired of being the slimy, unthinking turd dropper?

Here you go. Not only did he go to Mexico he wanted police officers pulled from other jobs to give him assistance to make it through the Houston airport.



Now I’m guessing here, but I suspect these officers probably had more important things to do then help old Ted make it through the airport.

When you take a vacation while your constituents are without power or water and freezing to death that’s called a Ted Cruise.

"It should be noted that while Cruz’s state is in crisis, the US Senate is in recess this week. One Dallas resident wrote to the Dallas Morning News and defended Cruz on that basis, noting that the “Senate is out, he can afford it. ... What exactly is the problem?” (Other right-wing pundits defended Cruz along similar lines.)

But there are still things Cruz could do to try to help even if the Senate isn’t in session. For instance, the Democrat he defeated to retain his Senate seat in 2018, Beto O’Rourke, said he made more than 151,000 calls to senior citizens in Texas on Wednesday alone, and solicited help to do more of the same on Thursday.

We made over 151,000 calls to senior citizens in Texas tonight. One of our vols talked to a man stranded at home w/out power in Killeen, hadn’t eaten in 2 days, got him a ride to a warming center and a hot meal. Help us reach more people, join us tomorrow: t.co/WOLn2HCrm1

Cruz’s flight to Cancun came one day after he posted a tweet acknowledging criticism he was receiving for his tweets from 2019 mocking California when heat waves there caused power outages. "
