  • Ted Cruz Explains Why Obama’s Immunity As President Isn’t Absolute

    Daily Caller News Foundation. ^ | July 23, 2025 | Mariane Angela
    Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz appeared on Fox News Wednesday to address the immunity of former President Barack Obama in light of recent discussions about presidential accountability. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard revealed documents showing that the Obama administration may have withheld a December 2016 Presidential Daily Briefing to prevent then-President-elect Donald Trump from seeing evidence that Russia did not interfere in the election. During an appearance on “The Ingraham Angle,” Cruz disagreed with the notion that Obama — or any president, for that matter — has absolute immunity from legal consequences. “It is challenging what the Supreme Court...

    The #NeverTrump movement just got another backer. Conservative radio host Mark Levin threatened on Friday that he will not support Donald Trump in the general election, should he be the nominee. Levin, a strong supporter of Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, said that Trump’s allies had made the billionaire Republican front-runner toxic. …“If they piss me off one more time, I’m going to urge millions and millions of you, should he get the nomination, not to vote for him either,” he said.
  • The PR Fallout of Ted Cruz Versus Tucker Carlson: Yes, It’s Just as Bad as You Heard

    For political junkies who cut their teeth on “60 Minutes,” “Meet the Press,” CNN, and Fox News, longform podcasts were a godsend. Finally freed of commercial restraints and surface-level superficialities, longform podcasts took you beyond the talking points, treating audiences to a deep dive of a topic’s intricacies. Even when the podcast host had limited knowledge of the subject matter (Joe Rogan, I’m looking at you), the benefit of the longform platform was that it facilitated an open-ended, free-floating conversation where both sides learned more about the other. But there was an important catch: It only worked when both sides...
  • Ted Cruz Destroyed In Interview As He's Unable To Name Ayatollah's Favorite Starter Pokemon

    U.S. — In an explosive new interview, Tucker Carlson laid into Senator Ted Cruz for not knowing the name of the Iranian Ayatollah's favorite starter Pokémon. The interview ranged in topics from Iran to Ukraine, but the most damning moment was when Carlson stumped Cruz with a simple question about Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's favorite starter. "What's the favorite starter Pokémon of the ayatollah, by the way?" Tucker asked 90 minutes into their 2-hour interview. Cruz, visibly caught off guard, was forced to admit he didn't know. "At all?" Tucker pressed, incredulous. "You don't know the favorite starter...

    As the anti-ICE, pro-illegal immigration, and even pro-terrorist riots continue in Los Angeles, there's not merely questions and concerns over the ineffective state and local leadership--though that is the case thanks to LA Mayor Karen Bass and Gov. Gavin Newsom. Many want to know who is funding these riots, including Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX). He already discussed at great length the riots over X as well as in Monday's episode of "The Verdict," and he's devoted another episode to the riots for Wednesday. The question of the riots and who is funding these, not just in LA but across the...

    Ted Cruz has proposed a resolution to replace the leftist Pride Month with one that celebrates life. Cruz introduced a resolution to designate June as “Life Month” to mark the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade in June 2022. “Every human life is worthy of protection, and it is especially incumbent upon Americans and lawmakers to protect the most vulnerable among us. Designating June as Life Month is a recommitment to the American principle that every life has dignity. I call on my colleagues in the Senate to swiftly pass this resolution,” the Texas Republican senator said in a statement....

    Washington Free Beacon ^ | February 23, 2022 | Chuck Ross
    Rep. Eric Swalwell (D., Calif.), who has accused Republicans of enabling Russia, took maximum campaign donations from a top lobbyist for Nord Stream 2 AG, the company behind an oil transportation project dubbed "Putin’s pipeline." Swalwell, a member of the House Intelligence Committee, received $2,900 last year from Vincent Roberti Sr., the chairman of lobbying powerhouse Roberti Global. Roberti gave $5,400 to Swalwell’s campaign in 2018. Roberti Global received $2.4 million in 2021 from Nord Stream 2 AG, a Switzerland-based subsidiary of Russian oil giant Gazprom. Critics of the 761-mile pipeline have long said it would allow Vladimir Putin to...

    The Trump administration and its Republican allies in Congress say they will fully enforce sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC) and are prepared to expand them in response to recent efforts from top ICC officials to evade the measures. Earlier this month, Judge Tomoko Akane, the ICC’s president, petitioned the European Union to invoke what is known as the blocking statute, a legal maneuver that shields EU members from sanctions issued by third-party countries such as the United States. Akane told the EU’s parliament "it is obvious the court cannot survive alone," warning them that "the time to act...

    The world’s richest man is dying to figure out how lawmakers on Capitol Hill got “strangely wealthy” despite their comparatively modest public salaries. Speaking at a town hall in Wisconsin Sunday night, Elon Musk suggested that his team at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will investigate how certain members of Congress have achieved generational wealth. One attendee at the town hall had asked Musk if DOGE had uncovered evidence of funds wired from the US Agency for International Development (USAID) to Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.), Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY). “They’ll [the government]...

    In an interview that aired Sunday on NBC’s Dallas-Fort Worth-area affiliate KXAS and went viral on X Monday, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) talked repeatedly about wanting to beat up and repeatedly “punch” Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz. Leaving aside her sudden code switching in the last year, the incendiary rhetoric is the sort of thing ABC, CBS, and NBC would look to call out if the parties were reversed. Unsurprisingly, they ignored it on their flagship Monday evening and Tuesday morning news shows, thus giving their tacit approval. CNN and MSNBC were also uninterested. Here was Crockett’s full comment: I...

    A liberal activist and organizer coordinated with reporters from the conservative news site Breitbart during the primaries to cover his disruptions of events for candidates such as Sen. Marco Rubio. Aaron Black, an associate with Democracy Partners and a former Occupy Wall Street organizer, worked with the pro-Trump site Breitbart, tipping it off about his stunts, exchanging raw video and coordinating coverage, according to a source with direct knowledge of the situation. Black has resurfaced recently as one of the people featured in undercover video from the Project Veritas group. In the video, he claims to work for the Democratic...

    “I got to say the Danish ambassador, they were upset and they were offended and they said, ‘Greenland is not for sale,’ and I laughed, and I said, ‘You know what: everything is for sale,'” Cruz said. “But friends and allies can have conversations about things that are mutual benefits. What I told Denmark is, I said: ‘Ever since the president began talking about this, Greenland’s independence movement has been growing in momentum. And if Greenland declares itself independent of you, Denmark gets nothing.’”

    Rep. Ralph Norman, R-S.C., introduced an amendment to the Constitution on Wednesday to limit the amount of terms a House member and U.S. senator can serve. Senator Ted Cruz, R-Texas, introduced the Senate version. Under the amendment, a senator could serve two services and a House member could serve three terms. In terms of a special election, the amendment defines a "qualifying term" as one year or more in the House of Representatives and three years or more in the Senate. The amendment would not be retroactive and would apply to terms lawmakers serve after its adoption. Term limit bills...
