WASHINGTON – Sen. Ted Cruz is taking some time off from the Senate after his closely watched return to work last week...

“After several months of a nonstop schedule, Sen. Cruz is taking some downtime this week with Heidi and the girls,” Cruz spokesman Phil Novack said...

Where is Cruz going to unwind? Folks on Twitter say he’s been spotted relaxing in Mexico.

Notice the pictures out of Mexico are just of him. No sight of his wife and kids, despite him saying he was taking down time to spend time with his family. This freak has neglected his family for years to such a degree that his kids, according to Heidi Cruz herself, refer to him as a “guest” when he visits.

Well heck just because he won’t be President doesn’t mean he can’t follow Obama’s kind of work schedule!

You didn’t expect him to do any work, did you? He’s all worn out from bashing Trump.

Really something isn’t it? I wonder if any of illegal lover Teddy Bear’s little toadies will stop by this thread and explain to us all how this is perfectly acceptable by their globalist fraud loser?

The joke is on the people that supported him.

Taking this week off means Cruz will miss a vote on Zika funding. Since last May, Cruz has missed 99 votes while campaigning, about 43 percent, according to GovTrack.


What a putz!!

Is he there with Heidi/kids?? Anyone seen that Amanda Carpenter around?

This guy needs to be fired as Senator. I wish we could recall his sorry, lazy azz.

He really got in a pool and got his hair wet?

almost unbelievable. He told his lady friends ‘not to touch his hair.’ wink~wink.

certainly doesn’t earn the pay check for the job he is suppose to do...VOTERS need to find a new Senator for the State of Florida..

WAKE UP AMERICA..EITHER DO THE JOB THE PEOPLE GIVE YOU, OR DON’T APPLY FOR IT...WASTE OF TAX DOLLARS.

His choice of Mexico got me, too. But, it’s been crappy weather wise all over the US lately.

I really don’t begrudge him some time off after the presidential race. Of course, I’m not from TX. But the demands of a presidential race, whether you like the candidate or not, is grueling. Absolutely grueling.

At some point, tho, he has to get back to focusing on his job as a U.S. Senator representing the people of TX, and put his personal ambition and feelings aside. Or step down. It’s not like there aren’t lots of qualified people in TX who could fill the breach.
