Ted Cruz, Texas’ first Hispanic senator, slammed the Democrats and the Biden White House and Joe Biden himself in very bold words about how out of control the Biden administration is and who he claims have “actively encouraged” crimes such as murder.
According to Mediaite, Texas Republicans said that the “attempted murder” of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh was “actively encouraged by elected Democrats,” that Sen. Chuck Schumer had “threatened” the Justices, and that Biden‘s administration has encouraged the “ongoing commission” of a felony “literally from the White House press room.”
The allegations from the Texas congressman come just one day after a 26-year-old California man traveled to Texas with the intention of killing Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. The suspect had dialed 911 and stated that he was motivated by the pending Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization judgment, which might see Roe v. Wade overturned.
While attending a press event with the group Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising (PAAU) which is seeking an investigation into the deaths of five nearly full-term babies they allege were either illegally aborted or left to die after birth, Cruz said, “We saw just yesterday a man arrested for attempted murder of a Supreme Court justice. That crime was actively encouraged by elected Democrats,”
“I think, unfortunately for the left, the law is viewed as optional,” he added.
“If they disagree with the law, they refuse to enforce it. Whether it is the federal criminal law that protects these children or whether it is the federal criminal law that protects Supreme Court Justices,” Cruz continues.
Cruz was referring to a speech given by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) before the Supreme Court in 2020, during which the justices were hearing the case of June Medical Services v. Russo, a challenge to a Louisiana law requiring abortion providers to have admitting privileges at a hospital within 30 miles of their abortion facility.
“Chuck Schumer went to the steps of the Supreme Court and threatened the justices,” Cruz said.
“I want to tell you Gorsuch,“ Schumer added, referring to Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch as a potential threat. “You have released the whirlwind, and you will pay the price. You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.”
“And even today,” Cruz went on, “the Department of Justice has not arrested the protesters that are violating criminal law on its face because the president and the attorney general agree with their politics.”
“The White House actively encouraged protesters to go to the home of Supreme Court justices, despite the fact that…there’s a federal criminal prohibition on doing so while a court case is pending – the only time that I’m aware of where the White House, literally from the White House press room, has encouraged the ongoing commission of a felony,” he explained.
“Well, the law is meant to be applied regardless of party,” Cruz continues.
He added that “The left is far too willing to encourage violence when it suits their political ends.”
“Violence is always wrong, and we should enforce the criminal law against anyone committing violence, whether you agree with their politics or disagree with their politics. Violence is unacceptable. And in the case of these unborn children, the violence that was visited upon them, that took their lives, it is against the law,” he added before emphasizing, “And just because a politician disagrees with the law doesn’t mean he or she has the right to ignore it.”
Well, Democrats have repeatedly demonstrated that a lack of morals prevents one from taking the moral high ground.
