Republicans Urge Immigrants to Stay in Florida, Fearing New Law’s Impact (newsweek.com)

“There you have it,” Kennedy wrote in another tweet. “The same scumbag politicians who voted for this anti-immigrant crap admit they did so to scare people from coming to Florida while also begging immigrants in a church to talk to their community so they don’t leave and keep working here. It’s all so disgusting.”

Cruz: Mark my words, I believe Garland will indict Donald Trump. He wants to indict Trump because he hates Trump. He’s angry that he wasn’t confirmed to the Supreme Court.

Ted Cruz is multi-talented, now he’s a mind reader!!

If Dante were alive today he would be tempted to create a new circle of the Inferno for Ted Cruz: a highly intelligent pol who cynically plays dumb to appeal to what he assumes are his gullible supporters.

It’s like Watergate, but with, you know, really lazy writers, and Irish Setters as the “masterminds” of the various schemes. Dumb Irish Setters. Really dumb Irish Setters.

The mind of a psychopath is indeed a curious thing to behold.

What does Trump have to do with Garland not getting confirmed to the Supreme court?

Alberta Ted Cruz would be a long way from the only pol to occupy that circle of Hell.

Ted Cruz has a very punchable face. The man is a despicable piece of crap.
