That's quite a sales pitch...Some of us remember that the CFR for decades was a highly secret organization and their existence was denied by everyone in gov't and the media...

We all know Goldman Sachs is a huge promoter of open borders and cheap foreign labor since they represent big international business...

We also know they are a big supporter of the massive port in Mexico that is to replace the ports in California for unloading and distributing ship containers from Asia thus cutting off the American distribution of these containers...

That's why the super highway was built from these ports in Mexico up thru Texas...This will eliminate the thousands of jobs of port workers in America as well as the jobs of thousands upon thousands of American truck drivers...

Obviously 'security' is a non issue with the CFR since the southern border is open to foreign terrorists as well as the illegal drug traffic...

The problem with Cruz is we now see you can't trust much of what he says...

When asked about the Council at another event in Tyler, Tex., on Oct. 15 — Texas, home of Ron Paul and Alex Jones, is the sort of place this comes up a lot — Cruz called the organization “a pernicious nest of snakes” that is “working to undermine our sovereignty,” according to video provided by someone who opposes his candidacy.

So Cruz was against the CFR destroying and eliminating American sovereignty before he was for it, eh???

For those of us who have watched the CFR for years are not fooled by this propaganda piece nor Ted Cruz...

RE: We all know Goldman Sachs is a huge promoter of open borders and cheap foreign labor since they represent big international business...

There have been multiple articles regarding Heidi Cruz, her position at Goldman Sachs and her term membership on the Council of Foreign Relations (CFR). Not one of these articles gave any in-depth explanation – just unproven accusations and theories.

Let me repeat —— , Heidi Cruz was a term member for an INDEPENDENT (EMPHASIS) task force sponsored by The Council of Foreign Relations.

The Independent Task force was hired to give a dissenting opinion of a plan to help strengthen the borders and increase economic stability between the countries within North America. THIS IS WHAT SHE DID.

Heidi Cruz worked for Goldman Sachs ( as did I as an IT consultant ). SO WHAT? Is working for a firm now considered EVIL?

What was her role in Goldman anyway?

She served as regional head of the Houston office in the private wealth-management unit, which serves individuals and families who have on average more than $40 million with the firm.

So, she is a WEALTH MANAGER, THAT’s ALL. Unless you can show that she swindled the money of investors who asked Goldman to help manage their investments, all these talk about Goldman Sach’s support for open borders is UNRELATED to her job as wealth manager.

I worked for Goldman and do not support everything their CEO or partners support as a matter of national policy. Why should she be equated with what the partners do?

As for Ted Cruz, I want you to show me where in his RECORD as both Texas solicitor general or senator he favored

The TPA is not CONCLUSIVE evidence. Ted Cruz’s policy on trade has always been for MORE not less. However, Cruz specifically placed conditions on voting for it:

1) it must pursue nearly 150 specific negotiating objectives, like beefing up protections for U.S. intellectual property or eliminating kickbacks for government-owned firms

2) the administration must consult regularly with Congress and meet high transparency standards.

3) before anything becomes law, Congress gets the final say.

He wrote all of the above in an April 21, 2015, op-ed in The Wall Street Journal.

Now if you will remember, Following the Senate passage (which Cruz voted FOR), the bill went to the House where it was split into two separate votes: one on TPA and the other on Trade Adjustment Assistance, or TAA (a program that provides training support, career counseling, allowances, and wage supplements to workers affected by globalization and trade).

Cruz cast a “nay” vote.

The same day, Cruz published his op-ed in Breitbart, a conservative news site, attributing his change of heart on TPA to “two material changes” in the legislation.

First, he wrote, was the WikiLeaks reveal in June 2015 of the Trade in Services Agreement, or TiSA, which is intended to extend trade in services (as opposed to goods) to address changes and advances in technology since the last major services agreement was implemented in 1995. It is a key part of the trade agenda under negotiations; services include finance, insurance, transportation, telecommunications and other fields.

Cruz wrote: “Despite the administration’s public assurances that it was not negotiating on immigration, several chapters of the TiSA draft posted online explicitly contained potential changes in federal immigration law. TPA would cover TiSA, and therefore these changes would presumably be subject to fast-track.”

Second, he said, were supposed “secret deals between Republican leadership and Democrats.”

“After witnessing several senators huddle on the floor the day of the TPA vote (on June 23), I suspected that to get their votes on TPA, Republican leadership had promised supporters of the Export-Import Bank a vote to reauthorize the bank before it winds down,” he said.”I cannot vote for TPA unless McConnell and Boehner both commit publicly to allow Ex-Im to expire — and stay expired.” Congress debated the reauthorization of the Export-Import Bank prior to its expiration on June 30, 2015, and it was a topic of disagreement among GOP members.

THOSE ARE NOT THE ACTIONS OF A GLOBALIST WHO WOULD SUPPORT FOREIGN CONCERNS OVER AMERICA’s.
