Ted Cruz Is A Theocratic Puppet of Trump and A (Real) Democrat
The Senate must expel Ted Cruz, and any other theocratic puppets of Donald Trump. The Senate (and House) must also clear out any fake opposition within the Democrats’ ranks. If Chuck Schumer wants to help Donald Trump he can resign his membership as a Democrat and just officially become a Republican. It will be liberating for him. Similarly, Ted Cruz can just switch sides and officially announce he is a Democrat.
During the now infamous interview Ted Cruz did with Tucker Carlson, he said a number of astounding things.
Many of those things were somewhat unsurprising in terms of revealing his true motivations which have been clear to people for many years. Other things he said were truly shocking. Shocking in a new kind of way as well. Shocking in a way that shocked people who are shocked about politics all the time.
The main thing to learn from this interview (which we can all thank Tucker Carlson for) is the fact that Ted Cruz is a gullible true believer, who is too lazy to do even the requisite work to adequately sell an unpopular war.
What’s more, is he also admitted he operates as a Senator from the stance of enforcing religious doctrine as official government policy.
That is unacceptable.
American Theocrats Like Ted Cruz Want War With Iran For Religious Reasons
During this masterful interview, Tucker Carlson got Ted Cruz to admit openly, on camera, that he believes WE are “biblically commanded to support Israel.” In a normal interview even on a seemingly adversarial station, the interviewer would probably allow that drastic of a comment to be the end of it. However, in this interview, we got even more information than we bargained for when Tucker asked for clarity. Tucker made sure to get an answer to whether or not Ted Cruz literally meant Israel, the modern geographically recognized governmentally controlled state run by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Not only did Cruz reaffirm this, he said his love of Israel started as a child.
He claimed that a bible passage says that those who bless Israel will be blessed, and that those who curse Israel will be cursed. That is the beginning and end of his current position and foreign policy posture towards the nation of Iran. He views Iran as “cursing” Israel, and therefore they must be cursed – with war – and his vote. That is not only disturbing, it is a constitutional violation of the first amendment.
Because war declarations are law.
The First Amendment Banned A Theocratic State
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” That’s the first amendment of the United States constitution. Usually we think about the separation of church and state to mean keeping prayer out of schools.
That’s child’s play compared to what Cruz is leading in the Senate among the (52) other Senators he claims to have on his side of this upcoming war vote. A war vote that Congress will make whether or not Trump decides to take actions to push us into the war fully. Meanwhile, Iran has already vowed to retaliate against the United States of America for the part they played and are playing here. That means without a declaration of war from us, the United States is currently positioned like we are going to be hit, at least in the middle east.
So, if Congress were to vote on war, and Ted Cruz were to leverage a religious cult conspiracy to force a declaration of war to be passed, he would officially make a law respecting the establishment of his religion. I also don’t even know if we could consider his religion Christian.
Assessing Damages From Ted Cruz and Theocratic Wars of Aggression Against the Muslim World
For decades, the White House has been occupied by a President, and our Congress has supported, wars in the Middle East against Muslim majority countries.
It turns out, that this may be due to religious radicalism: in the American Senate. And other places.
First of all, the way people like Ted Cruz have angled against the American people robbed us of a vote on going to war with Iran. We’re there already, because of Trump and Netanyahu.
Hundreds of people have already been killed.
American soldiers are providing defense.
Our bases are vulnerable, and the domestic homeland here in America could still be hit if the Iranians have been so emboldened. All of these possibilities of casualties of American lives, and Iranian and Israeli lives, and the lives of those in the region – are horrible.
There’s also the matter of the ~$3 billion/year that Cruz authorizes and votes on every year.
Cruz has been in the Senate for ~13 years, and unless he is expelled, he will probably remain there for another 30 or 40 years. Let’s say he’s in the Senate a total of ~40 years.
Without adding money, or accounting for inflation, that would amount to
When Pressed, Cruz Can’t Even Cite the Bible
Despite claiming biblical belief in a war with Iran, Ted Cruz could not even cite which book the quote he referenced was in. Tucker Carlson honestly answered it was Genesis but he couldn’t remember which book. I believe he was only ~4 chapters off from his guess as well. The oddity is that Ted Cruz planned for this interview. It was in his office. His turf. He could have prepared for this if he thought it mattered.
I would suspect that Ted Cruz is often unprepared. The kind of kid who would have made up any excuse in the world as to why his homework wasn’t completed. The kind of kid who probably cheated on a lot of tests, too.
Ted Cruz could not name the rough population of the nation.
He knew nothing about the country.
He went as far as to say, “I didn’t say I don’t know anything about the country.”
This portrays the arrogance of the man. Many men are like this. Men of a certain age, especially. They say things like “I didn’t say…” and that is often to discredit or delegitimize something you said.
Antisemitism and Other Leftist Smears
While Tucker Carlson gets the “W” for best high-brow insult – calling Ted Cruz a “sleazy feline” – Ted Cruz tried all these old leftist “woke” type smears. He actually called Tucker Carlson antisemitic. Cruz tried the *Russia asset* narrative as well. A number of other phrases he used were Democrat favorites. It was actually quite bizarre. Ted Cruz has revealed himself to be a total RINO.
Another truly ironic and post-modern admission was when Ted Cruz said, “I’m not in the morality game.” He was saying that to attempt to derail and steal the show from Tucker Carlson. But juxtaposed against a guy who claims he is also following God’s commandments to go to war with Iran, it’s really unbecoming of a Senator.
“Every one of our friends spies on us…friends and allies spy on each other.”
This interview made a lot of fringe conspiracy theorists online look right.
That’s not good.
Because there is a growing concern many American people have about the undue influence of Israel in our political life. Most people want America to be in control of her own affairs.
When pressed about the spying of Israel, connected to Cruz’s longstanding relationship with the AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) – and why they don’t have to register as a foreign lobby – Cruz did not actually have an answer. You could tell that Cruz knew he had to cover up or defend something, but the scary part is, I don’t think he even actually knows what he’s covering up or defending. Because he is a low information Senator. A few questions asked kind of guy. That’s why people like Donald Trump love him.
“Shake down” with AIPAC & Another Side of Politician/Lobbyist Relationship
Cruz made a point that got glossed over with other issues, about the fact that he often takes money from lobbies he believes in. He cited the NRA as an organization he believes in. The argument being made was that it’s not corrupt to take money from an organization you agree with. What Tucker Carlson and others are concerned about, which is hard to describe, is the slow erosion of common sense or independent thinking some elected officials wind up with.
Ted Cruz attempted to prove that it isn’t politicians who get shaken down by lobbyists.
No, he answered (perhaps honestly) that he/others shake down the PAC’s.
He insinuated that he can and would take money from organizations who he doesn’t agree with nor does he plan on voting in their interests. It’s hard to know what part of his lines are to justify something, defend something, or admit something. But it’s clear he was shaken and admitting to a lot of the wrong things.
Ted Cruz showed perfectly how a person could start off with good intentions, but eventually, have no intentions at all. Eventually, a Senator can just be an unwitting accomplice of schemes they can’t even understand or describe, yet they act as if they are real.
Did Iran Try To Assassinate Donald Trump, Or Not?
After the first Trump administration’s assassination of Iranian military officer Qasem Soleimani, the Iranians vowed revenge. This was taken to mean that they planned to kill all those involved in planning the hit. That includes Donald Trump, his first Vice President Mike Pence, national security advisor John Bolton, and others.
At different times including very recently, Donald Trump has claimed the Iranians have attempted to kill him.
He went as far as to insinuate that the Butler, PA incident was one such attempt. Netanyahu reiterated this in the last week, as well. They are clearly attempting to position it as a pretext for going to war with Iran. The problem is, too many people in America are still actually doubtful about what happened there that day. It appears to many people there was no actual damage to Trump’s ear.
If Iran did or was trying to assassinate Trump, Tucker Carlson asked, why we were not already clearly at war with them. Tucker even went hyperbolic to suggest that we should nuke the country if they were really trying to kill our President. Cruz then tried to walk it back, saying that’s extreme and not his aim.
The fact is, the events at Butler, PA in 2024 should still be considered an open investigation.
And the prime suspect of planning the event, is Donald John Trump.
Breaking Down the Public, Private, and Secret Conversations
On the Surface: “Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.”
If this is the basis of the conversation, it is clear that the American regime run by Donald Trump (and backed by Senators like Ted Cruz) are not interested in negotiations. They want to rob Iran of all their resources and sovereignty, and that’s it. They have some vague religious justification to trick the gullible people of faith into trusting them, but not much more than that. A lot of old Iraq War talking points are also being reiterated like this. To say that a country cannot do or have something, is inherently a childish way of dealing with people.
To the extent that international agreement can be reached, all accounts suggest Iran is following their word with respect to developing nuclear weapons. They do not appear to be enriching weapons-grade uranium either. However, few have discussed the possibility that they have already *acquired* a nuclear weapon from a friendly (to them) nation like Russia. So could Iran already have a nuclear weapon?
Of course.
Will we ever know for sure?
Possibly not.
Beneath the Surface: American Christian Theocracy
Ted Cruz admitted to having a theocratic view, though he would not use that word to describe himself.
On the other hand, Iran is an openly theocratic nation ruled under Islamic law. We in the West don’t like that apparently. Yet many just seem to think that their religion would be better to run a similar system here in America. That, unfortunately, is a constitutional violation for a Senator.
It is not illegal to be a Christian in office.
But a Christian has to be able to put their religious views aside when it comes to war and representing the best interests of the American people.
The best interests of the American people are somehow being better served in this dichotomy, by a religious Christian former talk show host, than the interests of the American people are being served by a U.S. Senator.
Underground Rationale: Donald Trump, Benjamin Netanyahu, and Steve Witkoff Having A 3 Kings Moment
Since Donald Trump (like many boomers) take their life inspiration strictly from fictional films about real events, I think it’s apt to liken this moment to the 1999 historical fiction film 3 Kings. This follows the story of (3) army guys played by George Clooney, Mark Wahlberg, and Ice Cube as they attempt to steal gold – that was originally stolen – from Kuwait. Somehow they think they can get away with this. No spoilers but…
Similarly, I believe that a lot of the actual reason Israel attacked Iran, with American support, has to do with gold. And oil. And whatever other treasures these 3 Wing Dings think Iran has to offer them that they can’t get with diplomatic negotiations.
Just like the movie 3 Kings, though, the men participating in this negotiation with Iran are doing so for their own personal and unjust enrichment. Donald Trump claims to be protecting Americans from the threat of nuclear attack from Iran, though the narrative is stretched out so long that you can’t usually hear that. But whether or not that is true (many believe it is not, though it could be) – the President is more interested in gold.
Witkoff and Netanyahu have also been attempting to get Iran to join some kind of non-BRICS “consortium.” It has not really been discussed in public yet, since most people are still shocked about the beginning of this conflict which has been supposedly going to pop off at any moment for decades.
While the World Watches Tehran & Fordow, Nobody Is Watching the Banks and Reserves
At the end of the day, whether Ted Cruz knows it or not (he actually seems like he might not) the war in Iran right now is about gold, and oil. Possibly other antiquities or things of value. But Witkoff, Trump, and Netanyahu are pirates here. Thieves. Not diplomats. Not heads of state. Personal profiteers of the worst kind.
So much attention has been getting paid to the nuclear program in Iran.
It is uniformly and unambiguously, absolutely treated as the one and only reason this conflict is happening.
Not only that, politicians like Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham are trying to push Americans into answering the question, “Do you think Iran should have nuclear weapons?”
However, that is not what this war is about.
Though difficult, Iran should be guarding their mines, reserves, banks, etc.
It may be hard to stomach, but it appears that the President of the United States is holding the American people and our military hostage in order to enable himself to steal resources from the Iranian people.
Let me tell you something: that has got to be about the most unpopular war in history.
What To Do About This
The allegations of Donald John Trump abusing his office to personally enrich himself have been vast this time around. Anything he did in his first term, or the years Biden was *in office* are nothing by comparison to forcing a region to be at war for his own personal enrichment.
If that isn’t impeachable, I don’t know what is.
In fact, that is the conversation our country should be having.
What should we impeach a President for?
Obviously not infidelity, or Clinton would have been removed.
Obviously not whatever the hell the 2019 Trump impeachment was really over.
But for stealing money from Americans and risking our lives to get Donald Trump, Benjamin Netanyahu, and Steve Witkoff more money and land to develop in the Middle East?
Impeach and remove Donald Trump.
Prosecute him for war crimes.
LOCK. HIM. UP.
And…levy consequences on everybody else remaining in his circle.
Expel Ted Cruz Now, and Save Our Democracy
Donald Trump is the main event. But along the way, his little soldiers are going to fall.
Ted Cruz has revealed himself to be a living breathing violation of the first amendment.
If the (52) Senators he claims to have on his side in this war were to be following him into some kind of bizarre religious war with the Muslims in Iran, it would demonstrate a corruption of the separation of church and state in the exact way we should be worried about it negatively affecting all Americans.
Keep that in mind when you think about expelling members of Congress and impeaching officials.
It’s one thing if they commit a crime that steals from 1 person or a single minority group.
Those are the instances (when policies negatively impact a limited number of people) where most people focus because they do so when it impacts them individually.
But if these guys go to war without our consent because of their own personal religious beliefs, they rob us of our own religious beliefs like non-aggression or compassion for other views.
If Ted Cruz and his church (whoever that is) want to go to war over God, let them “lease a Navy” like those plans which were discussed at a hearing with Pete Hegseth recently.
But the Senate must expel Ted Cruz for his anti-democratic views.
All those like him should follow.
