Amanda Carpenter, a top aide to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), is leaving his office to return to conservative commentary under her own name. Carpenter announced the move Tuesday in a message to colleagues that was first reported by Roll Call. She will leave Cruz's office on July 5.

“Looking back, I’m especially grateful for the opportunity to create #MakeDCListen, help with Sen. Cruz’s Gridiron speech, and contribute to his flawless presidential launch — as well as countless other memorable tweets, jokes, lines, talkers, statements, op-eds, and other items. We’ve been in high gear since Day 1 and I’m very proud of what we’ve done together,” Carpenter wrote........... Carpenter joined Cruz's office as a speechwriter and senior communications adviser in early 2013, before being promoted to communications director in the fall.

silence today from those assuring us that ‘thursday it’s over for Ted- National enquirer has blistering new ‘evidence’ that will sink Ted cruz”

Here’s the ‘blistering new evidence’ anti-cruz hacks are casting all their hopes of destroying 5 women and a man and his family over

A ‘snitch’ reports that he/she ‘heard ted had sex in a closet’ (The woman denies it)

an ‘insider’ (unnamed of course) says ‘it is alleged’ that Ted had affair with one of his staff

Another ‘Snitch’ says that someone ‘caught Ted and another woman ‘getting cozy together’ on the campaign trail

Another ‘insider’ Says a ‘4’th woman= MAY HAVE - had an affair

another ‘source’ claims Ted has had sex with a prositute-

and the final ‘devastating evidence’ ‘reported’ by the National Enquirer? A blogger- Yes, a blogger has said essentially that Ted is ‘utterly destroyed’ as a CHristian man

And the NE ‘reported that Ted had a drinking problem sometime in the past- (As though this somehow solidifies the slimy cheating rumors)

Well there you have it folks- the ‘devastating evidence’ that every anti-cruz hack assured us was ‘going to destroy Ted’- first they assured us it was coming out last monday- then they said “Just wait- it’s coming out on Thursday- Ted is finished” And they even went so far as to assure everyone that there was ‘video, photographic, audio and DNA evidence that the NE was going to release-

Funny how main stream media has turned away from the story, and how even though the story was shopped around to bloggers for months after reputable news stations wouldn’t touch it, none of them took it seriously because nothing could be substantiated-

It may be an old article, but it is relevant that it contains information about an alleged affair from before Trump even entered the race.

Didn’t you understand that was the whole point of posting it now?

“Senate press secretaries earn less than $50k? That’s ridiculous. You need more money than that just to be homeless in DC.”

Welcome to the real world. In the rest of America, guess what kind of look you get if you tell an employer to pay you based on what “you need”.
They care what value you generate for them and almost nothing else. And you can do fine in DC on 50k. Oh, you may not buy a classic charming house like you see in the movies, stylishly furnished, go for 150 dollar haircuts, eat out every night, etc. You might drive a crappy car, you might live a distance out, with roommates.

But that’s what the rest of the world already does.

“What’s its relevance?”

From the comments beneath the article, posted 10 months ago, there was already rampant speculation about Ted and Amanda. Hardly something Trump put them up to.

Sorry, I have not been researching that angle.

But others have been “following the money.”

I guess the Lobster Pot of press coverage has gotten way too hot for comfort. Time to peddle her wares elsewhere.

The article is 10 months old. No lobster pot yet.

I’m wondering if Benji Shapiro, the #1 Trump hater on Breitbart until he resigned knew of those stories?

I don’t call that “doing fine.”

I did better than that as an 0-3 in 1984.

The thing is that such a low salary at the seat of power is an inducement to corruption.

The story demonstrates the validity of the Carpenter/Cruz affair narrative originating prior to Trump even became a candidate.

Thanks for posting it and bonus points for making a whiny Cruzbot unhappy.

Kirsten Powers said it was known for a while, Roger Stone named the AP and WaPo I believe. There was a story, or stories, out there for months. I believe Cruz is hiding something, but don’t trust the entirety of the NE story.

I didn’t see the comment you mentioned from 10 months ago. But I did find the following in the comment section. Sounds like Amanda had to take up doing selfie-porn to make ends meet.

On another earlier 3/26 thread, they thought it was the Hyatt.

I thought someone was looking at the GPS within the photographs to ID the location? but haven’t heard back, yet

you mean you don’t believe their ‘snitches’ and ‘political operatives who shall remain unnamed’ when they say they heard it from someone hwo heard it from someone else? Odd- i thought that was what passed for evidence these days

I’m guessing the TDS afflicted Ben Shapiro is the one who spiked the story to protect Cruz, and who left in a huff when the Breitbart management would not support Fields scam (having seen the videos and stills, they made a wise decision or they would be paying her legal fees and sharing her eventual journo-slut walk of shame)

Ben Shapiro is now working ...errr.....spewing....for another Cruz donor owned/supported media, the Daily Wire
