Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz slammed the rioters Tuesday who rifled through his papers in his desk on the Senate floor when the Capitol was breached on Jan.6.
I think it was a terrorist attack on the Capitol, and it was despicable, and anyone who committed acts of violence should be fully prosecuted and should go jail for a long time, Cruz told the Washington Examiner when asked about the young men who went through his desk.
Video shot by a New Yorker reporter showed a chaotic scene on the floor of the chamber, and two men dashed over to Cruzs desk and flipped through his papers. He found Cruz's prepared remarks to talk about his objection to Arizonas certification of its electoral votes.
He was gonna sell us out all along look! Objection to counting the electoral votes of the state of Arizona. He added, Oh, wait, thats actually OK.

(32,230 posts)That ought to be hung around Cruz's neck until he favors us all with a resignation, or failing that, an expulsion from office.
And he's supposed to be smart.

Scram!

(11,371 posts)Hunting down the speaker of the house, yelling about hanging the president of the senate, beating up the cops who were trying to protect the lawmakers - not a peep out of Teddy. But someone rifles through his desk - now that's personal!

(82,849 posts)Gee Ted, why do you suppose so many of those armed insurrectionists all had the same mistaken idea, that they were carrying out your wishes? Are they all just stupid, and don't know the meaning of words? Or did you say something reckless and now it's come back to bite you in the fanny, so you're all upset now?
