HOW can you still believe he is a conservative...calling PATRIOT'S TERRORISTS? YOU ARE A TERRORIST. You want to talk about Trump supporters? Ted just resorted to his real persona. It seems you can't accept that. POTUS TRUMP has been the same for over 50 years! He loves America. He works for free, to help America prosper. FREEDOM.
BILL OF RIGHTS.
Let me lay it out for you.
Cruz's knowledge of the language is not in question, nor his intelligence. The term "terrorism" could, if he uses it be a rhetorical trap, to make sure the Democrats can't dodge it in the event that it can be proved that it was agents of the Federal Government, their informants, agitators and other co-conspirators who orchestrated the violence and illicit actions that happened at the Capitol.
Ray Epps has been outed, there are doubtless others. There were accounts of seven busloads of ANTIFAs getting off and donning MAGA gear (false flag operation). Many of us have suspected that the ringleaders and chief vandals were NOT Trump supporters, but couple that with police moving barricades and opening doors, this reeks of a set-up. Just the sort of event Pelosi, et. al. would love to have.
We have an alleged pipe bomber who hasn't been tracked down although the means to do so should be well within the abilities of people who can track down people across the country who were standing outside.
We have refusal to post National Guard Troops outside the Capitol, some six times.
There were advance teams setting up ropes on the scaffolding and terrace. Who were they?
Why have the 14,000+ hours of video been kept back, if there is nothing to find that would indicate some skullduggery and better yet, WHO conducted that activity throughout?
We only have, except for our own research, and the posted video and information from people who were there, the version of events the Mass Media want us to have, one that supports the "insurrection" (however lame that is) narrative. Cruz may have more, and I am reserving judgement to see what is produced.
If, however, it can be proven that the government orchestrated the worst of the whole thing, and by its actions entrapped people by promoting and facilitating the events of January 6, then who are the real terrorists? It would be a term, their term, and one that could not be avoided in discussion of those events going forward.
Something like that could cause quite a number of personnel changes in our government agencies, and even in the government itself.
In the event that is not the case, that it cannot be shown that the Government agencies and actors were not the main force behind those events, and that Cruz was aiming his remarks at the Trump supporters in the crowd who got caught up in the moment, then he has crapped in his mess kit by using the vernacular of the Democrats and pantywaist GOP turncoats.
