Changing his flight to come back early, apologizing, and sort of blaming his kids, makes him look weak, like a typical RINO.
How does one obtain the text messages of a US Senator's wife?
If her so-called friends revealed these texts, she needs new friends.
I didn’t like the idea of Nanzi showing off her $20k freezer stocked with $15 ice cream pints....while millions of Americans are out of work and without paychecks for basic necessities.
Ted going to Cancun, and, staying at the Ritz-Carlton - which he obviously often does - just isn’t good optics, during China Flu shut downs AND AN HISTORICAL ICE STORM, happening in our state.
Personal curiosity is not a legitimate business need, and doing so can be a violation of policy.

catastrophies like this are always the president’s fault!
Yeah I like Ted Cruz too... But there’s no question that in this political climate this was a move that was devastatingly tone deaf.
This Cruz thing is what now, a 3 day story? If he killed 15,000 nursing home residents then the press would not have made a peep.
I used to work for United. It certainly isn’t Bill Patterson’s airline by any description. Bottom line worshiping trashy suits!
He should turn it around on the Democrat party-press and say I never said I was originally not coming back Thursday, I just left a “void” of information, then slam Cuomo.
I doubt the homosexual flight attendants (redundant?) were interested in girls.
Fled should have gotten his story straight.
Ted going to Cancun, and, staying at the Ritz-Carlton - which he obviously often does - just isn’t good optics, during China Flu shut downs AND AN HISTORICAL ICE STORM, happening in our state.
Right. So you have a chance to fly to Cancun during an ice staorm where there is rolling blackouts and no running water and you wouldn’t go? Ted is a senator. He has no power IN Texas to do anything, that on Abbott. This is a local government issue. So the.other than Ted wearing a coat and freezing along with you, for the 1 DAY he was gone, would that make you feel better? Did Texas really miss him that much for 24 hours? Give me a break. I would have left in a heartbeat like a NYer heading for Florida for the winter. Not hearing what Cornyn has so far done for your state.
“ how’d they get the text messages??”
Heidi sent the text to a friend and that friend leaked the text.
Believe New York Times accessed Facebook and all Cruz family, friends that were notified of travel plans.
“The catch is that I’d bet quite a few employees had looked into this (purely out of curiosity), which might make it tough to figure out who the actual leak was.”
Now if this had made Biden look bad, it would have been easy to find the source. Simply do what Obama did and pull up the email and phone records of the journalist who reported the story and match that to someone working at United who pulled up Cruz’s reservation.
Why the hell not, no one is going to jail anyway, since this is simply part of ‘fighting fascism’, as they see it.
I need to tell you that she has also witnessed a little girl, maybe 11, sitting next to a man who was "playing" with her under a blanket. She will never forget the look on that girl's face.
I really need to lay off getting on FR on Saturday.
Do you live in the USA?
Which state?
Leaders are supposed to lead and set a good example. Ted should have grabbed the opportunity to show that he was working at the federal level to lobby for all the help he could direct to Texas.
It has been a while since I have posted on FR but I couldn’t pass this up.
As a Texan who just went through this abysmal failure by ERCOT in keeping Texans supplied with electricity, I could careless Cruz went to Cancun.
No sane person in Texas is holding that trip against him.
It is the media stirring the pot and liberals piling on that are trying to create a mountain out of a molehill.
