Ted Cruz is starting an Ice Bucket Challenge for the coronavirus era
« on: April 24, 2020, 11:03:11 pm »
Houston Chronicle by  Benjamin Wermund April 24, 2020

 U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz is trying to start a coronavirus version of the viral Ice Bucket Challenge, pushing politicians, celebrities and athletes to volunteer, donate or help their communities in other ways and share it online.

The Texas Republican launched the so-called #CombatCOVID19Challenge with Democratic U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand earlier this month, taking breakfast tacos and coffee to the Houston Police Officer’s Union.

Since then politicians from Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner and San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg to former Texas Gov. Rick Perry and former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie have joined. Houston’s Jim “Mattress Mack” McIngvale, restaurateur David Chang and Fox News anchor Bret Baier have also taken part.

I have one for Democrats. Fill a 5 gallon bucket with water. Stick your head in three times and pull it out twice.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Didn't the ice-bucket challenge die when the kids took up Tide Pods?  Or was it the Fidget Spinner?
