FUCKING TED CRUZ IS BLOCKING THEM

Your afternoon update that Republicans are criticizing Biden’s handling of the Afghanistan crisis while - at the same time - refusing to confirm many of the top officials who Biden needs to handle the Afghanistan crisis.

Chairman @SenatorMenendez and Sen. @ChrisMurphyCT
came to the floor to confirm dozens of critical national security nominees.

Senator Ted Cruz blocked them.

2. Maybe someone should buy ol' Teddy another ticket to Cancun

Or tell him a brown person has been spotted near the Rio Grande and the news cameras are down there. That ought to get him out of town.

There isn't?

5. They have tried to thwart him in all matters and will continue, but Biden's party, Democratic party

leaders? Their lack of support is stunning.

7. THIS is what the media should report on.

The Republicans are intentionally putting up roadblocks, creating issues for the withdrawal. This, anyone can see. But will the media concentrate on the cause and effect? Of course not. Lazy bastards.
