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.

I’m with you. I don’t even know if I’ll be able to vote for the snake again when he’s up for election again.

Thank you NoPardons.

Some of our folks don’t seen to realize they are doing exactly what Bill, Hillary, and Obama’s supporters do, when they exonerate them for things they have done that are unforgivable.

Ted did as little as a human possibly to get Trump elected. Oh who cares, he said something nice today, when there didn’t need to be anyone saying it from his position.

This isn’t a make or break for Trump or the nation.

It’s a make or break for Ted’s rehab.

Bovine excrement...n00b. You Cruzites are the "disruptors"! TRUMP WON.....GET OVER YOUR LOSS!

talk about a "fake news" comment!...your turning this thread all around. NO one so far that I've read, is lamenting the fact that Trump won! I for sure am not. I was a Ted Cruz supporter. Still am. I am glad that Trump won and my entire family voted for him. I am sure Ted Cruz did too. No one so far that I have read on this thread is grieving the " loss" of Ted Cruz. so stop using words like CNN!! We are just saying that we need to put this behind us now and support both Trump and CRUZ.. Cruz is a good man!!

Ted Cruz is the only totally honest and trustworthy candidate that was in the 2016 race.

I will fully support our president, but I know better than to trust him. I hope my feelings are wrong, but only time will tell.

His actions so far have been 90% positive, and that beats any recent president, so I’m holding my breath so to speak.

You should think more before posting.

Cruz is NOT a "good man" at all and you and the other Cruzites, who are still PUSHING him, are blinded by your cultish desires.

I didn't "turn this thread" at all. I'm merely responding to you and your ilk, who are bashing those of us who weren't head over heels in mad, passionate, drooling sycophantic love with twee Teddy.

I praised him for falling in line, but you ignored that post.

It appears that you’re proud of your illness.

You simply have no idea what is classless, or you would not be posting this diarrhea.

I agree with PROCON.

I wouldn’t want to see Cruz as a Supreme Court Justice because he played fast and loose with natural born citizen (Constitutional) and TPP (Statutory). He would make a great Solicitor General.

"HONEST" ?

Was Cruz "honest", when he ran for president, when he knew that he wasn't eligible?

Was he "honest", when he ran for the Senate, when he still has dual citizenship and didn't tell the populace of Texas about that? Especially when he, on a call-in radio show, in Texas, and asked what constituted a NBC and gave the CORRECT answer; which precluded him from the presidency?

"TRUSTWORTHY"?

I wouldn't trust him to go to the store to buy me a gallon of milk, and come back with the change and the brand I asked, nor the gallon of milk!

That’s it Ted. Latch on to everything Trump does as if you did it.

Exactly where in that statement does he take credit for it?

Doughty,

Ted WAS a never Trumper. WAS.

Now he can be an important ally. We don't have to forget what he did, but for the time being he's on Trump's side and we need all the help we can get. Lets focus our fire on the actual ones who are now against President Trump.

I just don’t trust the guy.

I’m also not willing to let him pull a stunt like he did last year, and then act as if he’s the greatest Conservative ever.

Good strong faithful Conservatives don’t come anywhere near doing what Ted did last year.

We could have lost this nation due in no small measure to his childish actions.
