On Tuesday, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, announced that he has reintroduced two bills, alongside Congressman Michael McCaul R-Texas, and Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart, R-Florida, to protect Americans from radical Islamic terrorism. One measure targets the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the other takes aim at the Muslim Brotherhood.
I am proud to reintroduce these bills that would codify needed reforms in Americas war against radical Islamic terrorism, he said. This potent threat to our civilization has intensified under the Obama administration due to the willful blindness of politically-correct policies that hamper our safety and security. A grand détente with the Muslim Brotherhood and a blind eye to the IRGC are not pathways to peace in this struggle; they guarantee the ultimate success of our enemy. It is time to call this enemy by its name and speak with clarity and moral authority.
According to Cruzs statement:
The U.S. has officially listed individual members, branches, and charities of the Muslim Brotherhood as terrorists, such as Hamas, al Qaeda, and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, but has not designated the organization as a whole. The intent of the Brotherhood is stated within its Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Brotherhood in North America; The process of settlement is a Civilization-Jihad process
The Ikhwan [Muslim Brotherhood] must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and sabotaging its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers
BTW, after President Trump’s two terms and then another two terms, Ted Cruz will still be younger than President Trump is now.
Yes, it's a good thing he's making himself useful, to us this time.
Thanks!
It says REintroduce so I assume he introduced them during the last session.
Then why are they still operational in our country?
Since you live in California, it will never matter anyway...lol.
I thought he did a pretty good job of showing support for Sessions yesterday. Some of you really need to move on.
What does that mean? What are you suggesting?
It was in response to the objection to people “continuing to promote him.” President Trump is only going to serve 8 years. There is a long game beyond the Trump years. He can get a lot of good things going, but someone has to continue the work.
> Yes, it’s a good thing he’s making himself useful, to us this time.
I still like to know what bribe Hillary offered him for the back stab at the convention.
People need to move on? Does this mean folks just need to forget what they already know about Mr. Cruz?
Uh huh.
I’d still like to know what he actually was doing on that plane with them all.
Not as much. Maybe he will be a senator Trump can depend on, unlike McClown, Linda, or Little Marco.
Meg33, Trump squeaked in. If he had lost a couple of strategic states he would have been toast, and so would our nation. How do you know Cruz didn’t hurt Trump? How do you know Trump shouldn’t have had 340 electoral votes? If he had, it would have been much more of a mandate, and far better for the nation.
Ted remained faithful to two entities after he lost the nomination. Himself. NeverTrumpers. He remained silent to prove he was a man of character, and there-by proved he wasn’t.
The nation be damned, it was Ted full speed ahead.
I’m not saying this to put you down or give you grief over your thoughts. I provide it as a counterpoint.
Take care.
So how many versions are there of Mr. Cruz?
If Cruz is younger than Trump now, yeah it’s a certainty that he will still be younger than Trump in 16 years.
D-uhhhhh
I rest my case.
And he will still be ineligible.
Count me out.
Others can play the dynasty game too
No, thanks. Not interested in anybody's "dynasties".
