In what appeared to be a moment of misspeaking, anti-LGBTQ+ Republican Sen. Ted Cruz (TX) said in a recent congressional speech, “How about we all come together and say ‘Let’s stop attacking pedophiles’?”
During a congressional hearing on the current president’s actions addressing crime in cities — which seems mostly to be insulting large city mayors, ignoring higher-crime areas in red states, and then sending in armed federal officers against the mayors’ wishes — Sen. Cruz referred to Sen. Cory Booker’s (D-NJ) plea for Democrats and Republicans to “come together and have bipartisan agreement.”
“I think that’s a great idea. We should have bipartisan agreement,” Cruz said. “How about we all come together and say, ‘Let’s stop murder’? How about we all come together and say, ‘Let’s stop rape’? How about we all come together and say, ‘Let’s stop attacking pedophiles’?”
Inevitable.
Hope you’re proud of your representation, Texas.
The more time passes the more I realize how widespread the problem of rich and powerful people living under a completely different set of rules has taken effect. They are abusing this situation to a point where they have developed their own subculture and much looser morality standards. They can’t even help themselves but let it slip that they think that being a pedophile is considered normal now.
And that’s just the tip of the lawlessness and moral depravity iceberg. We’ve seen on increasing occasions that they don’t even care about hiding it anymore because Trump has shown them that there are no consequences.
They are all terrorists and pedophiles.
Same article as September for those curious if Raphael did it again, it’s just an old article.
The GOP has lost all moral authority.
Why? Have you people ever started? I mean, you’re cool with one running your fucked up third world country.

Not that I think it’s unimportant, but I wish we’d keep things current here.
Oh… No idea how it resurfaced in my feed.
I like Ted Cruz because he’s not afraid to tell it like it is
