'ZodiacPAC' uses viral meme to oppose Cruz
By Jacqueline Thomsen - 07/13/17 04:39 PM EDT
A new political action committee opposing Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) is taking advantage of the viral meme alleging that the senator is the Zodiac Killer, who has never been identified.
The founders of “ZodiacPAC” say they’re creating the group to oppose Cruz and other conservative politicians in Texas who they say don’t represent their values. The PAC filed with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) on Monday, according to an FEC filing.
The group admits that it doesn’t actually believe that Cruz is the Zodiac Killer — who murdered at least five people in Northern California in the late 1960s — but that the meme is an opportunity for them to highlight Cruz’s qualities and stances.
“The zodiac meme is like a political cartoon for the digital age,” the PAC’s website reads. “It's outlandish, but it highlights Ted Cruz's fundamental meanness — someone who cares more about his own ambition and fame than the people of Texas.”

He's still struggling.
Its amazing that him being shot registered as barely a blip on the consciousness of those setting the tone responsible for the violence.
