Ted Cruz Statement on Firing of Acting Attorney General
Facebook ^

Posted on 01/30/2017 8:03:02 PM PST by springwater13

After eight long years of a lawless Obama Department of Justice, it is fitting--and sad--that the very last act of the Obama DOJ is for the Acting AG to defy the newly elected President, refuse to enforce the law, and force the President to fire her. Sally Yates now joins the ignominious succession, from Eric Holder to Loretta Lynch, of Attorneys General who put brazen partisan interests above fidelity to law.

President Trump was exactly right to fire an acting Attorney General who refused to carry out her constitutional duty to enforce and defend the law. Yates’ lawless partisanship highlights why the Senate needs to act now--and Senate Democrats should end their extreme political obstruction and delay--and confirm Jeff Sessions immediately. America needs and deserves an Attorney General who will be faithful to the Constitution and uphold the law.

SPOT ON....as usual.

It appears that the old CRUZ-Aided kids are still having a difficult time. Sadly, they still refuse to actually see reality and I fear that they never shall.

Teddy is going nowhere and shall be extremely lucky to manage to eek out a re-election win fore that Senate seat.

Too bad Ted took the low road at the convention.

I LOVE to read your posts...it’s akin to the aristos of old, in England, who visited Bedlam, to laugh at the antics of the insane. ;^)

If you chose to, go ahead.

After his actions last year, seemingly not really caring if Hillary or Trump won, what is the guy really worth to us?

All of a sudden he’s big man on campus after pulling those stunts, just because he now repeats things Trump does to sound like a solid guy?

Give me a break.

This isn’t personal between you and I. You have to do what you need to do. I’m just voicing how I see it and hoping folks won’t allow a guy like that to have a position that could hurt the nation.

He proved he was willing to do that last year. How can people forget?

An opportunist. That’s all. First chance he gets to burn Trump while making himself look good for 2020 or 24, he’ll do it in a New York second.

I don’t know any Texans who will vote for him again, in the real world.

You know, if McCain is any example, I won’t hold my breath.

It’s a real shame what Ted did to his credibility. 18 months ago I wanted him in the White House with Trump.

Oh no he isn’t and your pathetic, uneducated, puerile insults reflect on you, not on me at all. LOL

Thanks again NoPardons.

That was a timely pseudonym this last year.

You're most welcome.

LOL...even though my nic was aimed at the Clintons, yes, sadly, it truly should have been the watchword of '16!

Generally I agree with this logic.

You know what happens down the road? If I don’t keep this issue front and center, his jolly ole supporters point back to now as if it’s the start of his career.

Ted’s career ended last year. He’s coasting. He’s not accomplishing anything on his own. He’s just latched on to Trump’s cloak and is begging him to heal him.

No.

Nope. Not good enough.

Ted Cruz needs to go. He is a slimy little worm that will do anything for power.

You can’t reason with these people. They believe their own libelous talk. And believe they are righteous because of their libelous talk.

There’s no way to reason with people like that. Sad.
