Ted Cruz

I mean, they're just gaslighting

like crazy.

And when the corporate media goes along with it, it means that Democrat senators face no consequences for behaving recklessly.

Well, that's right.

And again, the Democrats are doing this because they know their base is acutely attuned to anything that is attacking ICE, anything that is attacking Trump, anything that is fighting for open borders.

And they feel confident that the press will be their Praetorian guard, will protect them from the voters know what they've done.

So, for example, I went on Greta Van Susteren's show on Newsmax this week.

Now, Greta, Newsmax is not some left-wing outlet.

But Greta did her entire opening monologue saying Congress has failed and the TSA is defunded because Congress has failed.

Congress is not doing its job.

And she says it like eight times that it's Congress as a whole that has failed.

Never once does she say that it's the Democrats who are voting no on funding and the Republicans who are trying desperately to get it funded.

I push back pretty hard.

Give a listen to the back and forth between Greta and me.

outreach tax republican senator ted cruz joins me nice to see you sir uh... your i'd like to know about tsa what we do about tsa not getting paid look we need to fund them and we need to fund them now i i just heard a minute ago what you said i would respectfully suggest that your remarks should should be edited slightly i agree with every sentiment you said except one you said congress isn't paying them congress isn't paying them congress isn't paying them

To be accurate, what you should say is Democrats aren't paying them because Republicans have now voted six consecutive times.

I voted two hours ago to fund the entire Department of Homeland Security.

I voted over and over and over again.

Why are they not funded?

There is only one reason.
