Once again Ted Cruz has to spell out to the Democrats the consequences of their free-speech killing bill and he does so quite thoroughly. Will they listen? Doubtful.
I know it’s 17 minutes long but I just watched it and never blinked. Of course listening to Ted Cruz is a breath of fresh air from the crap we have to listen to most of the time.
"listening to Ted Cruz is a breath of fresh air" Amen, brother.

Thanks for posting. I see my illustrious senators Menendez aka 'The Toad' and Booker are on the list.
I'm surprised only one of this state's senators is on the list, Patty "Mophead" Murray, and the other, Maria Cantwell, who is even stupider than Murray, isn't. For now anyway.
