A furious Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) blistered the Democrats for pushing to replace the aging Dianne Feinstein out but not the obviously mentally deficient president. He’s never seen a party cannibalize their own in this manner. Feinstein has been hospitalized while battling shingles. Cruz spoke on a podcast with Ben Ferguson, explaining the sinister agenda. Republicans shouldn’t be aiding Democrats.
Cruz sympathized with the illness
“Shingles, by all accounts is a horribly painful disease. I’m grateful I haven’t had it. But everything I’ve heard about it, it sounds terrible. Shingles is also curable, it’s not a permanent affliction, but it is very painful while you have it. So Dianne has been out for a couple of months with shingles. She has been at home recuperating.”
With Dianne gone, the Democrats can’t push through their agenda. They can’t get enough votes so their hands are tied.
Cruz continued
“The Radical Left is pissed because while Dianne is gone, the Democrats no longer have a majority on the Judiciary Committee. Because they don’t have a majority, it means they can’t ram through their most radical and extreme judicial nominees. Now, most of their judicial nominees they can pass.”
Cruz pretty consistently votes against those nominees while Senator Lindsey Graham votes most of them through.
“He votes to confirm most Biden judicial nominees. I vote against almost all Biden judicial nominees. But given that Lindsey votes for practically all of them, the Democrats can move almost the entirety of Biden’s judicial slate. The ones they can’t move are the most radical or the nominees that are so extreme.”
Republicans working
They’re trying to slow down the speed of those confirmations. It’s not just those two that shouldn’t be in office due to their mental state. Fetterman is on that list too.
“Look, the Senate is a body with a crap ton of really old people, like, they’re a bunch of people in their 70s and 80s. I’ve served with a bunch of colleagues who are way past their expiration date. It’s striking to me that the only senator I’ve ever seen that a party has tried to drive out because of health is Dianne Feinstein. Listen, John McCain, who I served with for a long time, John McCain was hospitalized and was incapacitated for months. He was the Chairman of the Armed Services Committee. There was no effort throw John McCain out of the Senate, nor should there have been. I would not have supported that. I didn’t support that. It’s really striking. By the way, right now, Joe Biden is profoundly mentally diminished. None of these left-wing radicals calling for throwing Dianne Feinstein out are calling for throwing Joe Biden out. And by the way, to be clear, John Fetterman, the senator from Pennsylvania, has been medically unavailable and absent for most of this Congress. He’s been in the Senate only a few days since he was elected. And none of these radicals who are calling to throw Dianne Feinstein out are calling to throw Fetterman out. And so it raises an obvious question, why the double standard? Why is she the target of their ire?”
