There are "three kinds of votes in today's Washington"

1. Show Votes

2. Grow Government Votes

3. Must Pass Votes

Must Pass votes "typically fall into one of three categories – either Continuing Resolution or an Omnibus Appropriation bill or a Debt Ceiling increase. Each of those three are deemed must-pass votes, and if you actually want to change law, those are the only hopes of doing so."

Like Cruz said we're learning "The voters have gotten more informed."

Cruz: "But I encourage those watching to see, number one, when this motion is offered again, who shows up to offer a second and who either doesn't raise his hand or just doesn't come to the floor"

According to Cruz’s office, he did not have time to speak Tuesday to offer the amendment again.

We'll be watching!

Don’t just read the transcript. Watch Sen. Cruz deliver the speech. Amazing.

It was one of the most powerful speeches I have ever seen.

God forbid, but if Iran or any other terrorist regime succeeds in murdering millions of Americans, then I would wish that every single politician and their staffs would dragged out of where ever they would be hiding and taken care of in the manner that General Washington dealt with traitors -- Those who stood with Cruz would the the only ones spared.

Senator Cruz repeatedly uses the phrase “The American people are frustrated” ... I beg to differ with him. If the Senator Cruz could read our hearts and minds, so to fully understand exactly what the majority of Americans think about our political class, he would not sleep a wink. “Frustrated?” No, Senator - we are far far far beyond that phase. Let’s just say, forget Iran ... the District of Corruption ought pray to God that we “frustrated” Americans do not gain access to a operational nuclear device.

yes indeed! Anyone who has not listened or read the transcript really does need to take the time to do so....it's important they understand what's being done....

The first I noticed Cruz was when he did the filibuster....my gosh I stayed up the entire night as he went through the Constitution and How our Government is suppose to work so concisely that even a child could understand, yet deep enough adults would learn.....that's when I began to support him... and support him still.

Yes, unfortunately truth is no longer welcomed in this country as we have known it to be...so God is and will eventually remove it altogether....which is why people believe the lies they’re told now....apart from the Lord...,who is the truth, ..there’s nothing left but lies.

I really wish he was atop the field. If Trump wins I hope he picks Cruz as VP in the general.

I love him. He got the Colbert audience to clap at the end. That was incredible.

Hiring colbert was even more proof how leftwing and anti American that networks are.

God willing the people will open their eyes and ears and realize Ted is our last hope for this country. True Christians recognize this clearly....but we are the minority...so only God can make this happen and I’m not so sure he’s willing to give us Cruz as the public seems to love being entertained and having a hero......without consulting God on the matter.

I’m not concerned how close to the top he is......if God wants this he will rise in good time....meanwhile the rest have to be sifted out....all Cruz needs is the funding to stay the course while that happens because part of the plot is to “break” the purses so they cannot go on.

Media knows Trump has the funds to stand so they can only badger him...he’s ‘their mark’ to eliminate the others. ..and it’s working so far.

I cling to Him ... He alone will save us, we know that to be truth.

Thankfully we know how it will end but in the meantime to watch the eyes of those we love be blinded by the enemy, is painful.
I pray for mercy on our land and that eyes will be opened to TRUTH.
God BLESS TED CRUZ...
