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.

But Ted, don’t you know that the democrats don’t believe in ANY constitution that they can’t rewrite every time they need to?

Flunked every class you ever had, did ya, due to your appallingly lacking reading comprehension.

I don't know YOU, nor any of your friends or family members. I said, "Nobody I know, IN THE REAL WORLD ( that means people I know and in flesh & blood, face to face, not some poster on the net! )will vote for twee Teddy" and will work to get him primaried, so that they can still vote against the Dem!

Do you understand that now? If not go take some remedial English classes, because you are in extreme need of them!

DoughtyOne, Whatever your reasons — and I really mean WHATEVER — you are now hurting President Trump’s cause when you diss a presently very willing supporter in Ted Cruz. Presently is the operative word here.

It takes me too dadgum long to form an opinion. One statement by a career politician isn't enough to make me change my mind. Besides, what is the rush?

DoughtyOne, I understand you may be taking a trip later (over a cliff). Can I catch a ride with you?

People need to remember that Ted’s dad was involved in the JFK conspiracy.

I do not hold daddy Cruz's actions against his son... except when the son pretends he has been anointed by preacher daddy Cruz to go out into the market place (president) and collect money for the 'priests'. (daddy Cruz).. The Cruz bunch are obsessed in short cuts to big piles of other peoples money.

Actually, my reading comprehension is just fine. You commented: I don’t know any Texans who will vote for him again, in the real world.

I'm a Texan who isn't willing to have a Senator Castro. I think supporting Cruz would be an obvious decision since I don't think a new candidate will beat the Castro machine.

But thanks for making it crystal clear that you don't value any other Texan's opinion if they aren't a part of your circle. Won't be bothering you again.

Cruzing with Ted means Democrats politically dead.

This thread is a re-enactment of yesterday's battles by people who take themselves too seriously. Donald and Ted have gone on to greater things. Their teamwork will create immense benefits for the country. They are complementary talents and personalities. Their objective is to restore the American Dream. Let's help them.

That is incredibly laughable. You may not, but Ted has more integrity than that.

That from a source you consider inpeccible? I'm not surprised if that's the case.

President Trump needs Cruz in the US Senate, now that he's on board, at least until the confirmations are done. It would be really sweet to have him replace Ruth Ginsburg. JMHO

Ted is starting to soften my heart for him - this is what he does best and he can be very useful to Trump and the rest of us.

Cruz can say whatever he wants. If it helps Trump, then fine. However, I will never trust him. Watch him like a hawk. He’ll kiss up now but just wait.
