The U.S. Capitol Police have offered to provide additional security protection for Texas Senator Ted Cruz following angry confrontations on the floor of the GOP convention in Cleveland, a law enforcement source tells DailyMail.com. The offer of extra protection came hours after Cruz left the Quicken Loans Arena Wednesday night being subjected to taunts and boos after he refused to endorse Donald Trump and instead urged Americans to vote their 'conscience.' His wife, Heidi Cruz, had to be hustled out of the arena by a Cruz supporter fearful for her security. Cruz addressed Texas delegates Thursday morning and got furious blowback from Trump supporters and even some of his own backers, as they yelled out at him and demanded answers for why he wouldn't endorse Trump outright. When he appeared, Cruz was flanked by two security agents who stood guard and kept a close eye on delegates decked out in white cowboy hats and red, white, and blue outfits.
It wasn't immediately known whether Cruz had accepted the offer. The Capitol Police routinely provide extra security for some senators and representatives including some who receive specific threats. Cruz, however, already employs his own security protection detail. The force also contracts with local undercover police and civilian professionals to protect lawmakers deemed to be under threat. Cruz previously had protection provided by the U.S. Secret Service, but had to give it up when he was no longer a presidential candidate after he dropped out of the race following his loss in Indiana. One Republican lawmaker, asked by DailyMail.com about whether Cruz needed to get more security, responded, 'He's intentionally placed himself in this position and sometimes martyrs choose to do this and I think we ought to work together as a team.'

No one on our side of the aisle will bother him. Watch out for ISIS and BLM. Bogus.
“Most people will simply forget they ever knew him. He’s in no danger.”

Yup. The only thing he has to fear is that he has made himself forever irrelevant and walking around the rest of his life remembered only as “America’s Judas”.
“Yet Rush thinks he can come back from this LOL”
Rush is STILL carrying establishment water!
Too stupid to get out of bed without hurting himself?
Needs help in the tub to keep from drowning?
Likely to walk into traffic without looking both ways?
May shoot himself in the foot with a real gun?
To paraphrase FDR, “The only thing he has to fear, is himself.”
Something, something....rhetoric of the candidate is responsible, blah blah blah.
But anyway, I seriously doubt anyone cares enough bout the guy to actually lend any validity to this fairy tale.
The guy keeps worsening the problem, so let’s spend more time and effort and expense to protect him?
just silly thinking.
Cruz asks for it, let him live with consequences.
Ted, a word of advice. When you find yourself in a hole...quit digging!
All he needs is a muzzle. It’s his big mouth that gets him into trouble.
Protection from the men with the butterfly nets maybe :/
What a joke.
Oh BS....He needs more than Trump...the next President???
Rush made his greatest fame and fortune while Clinton was in office. He would have little to spout off about if we had a successful president who loved America. Rush is salivating to get another Clinton in office.
Perfect vehicle for those payday hauls from Goldman Sachs.
No, the guy is Gollum from Lord of the Rings!
And stop you whining and get back to reality. Marco was the one re you wife, and Trump responded only after you first went after his wife. Trump said nothing that special about your father for you to unravel. Are you really that weak and wimpy? Or is this just part of your drama queen persona?
I like it.........
The days of raphael’s life.
Canadian mental illness played out on the national stage.

You want him hurt? What are we, BLM :)
He’s not worth 10 minutes in jail.
