20 times Justice Don Willett slammed Donald Trump on Twitter @JusticeWillett @realDonaldTrump

Justice Don Willett mocks Donald Trump, @justicewillett, @realDonaldTrump, on Twitter
UPDATE: Utah Judge suspended for criticizing Donald Trump on his private Facebook page. Justice Don Willett here criticized and attacked Donald Trump on his very public Twitter and Facebook accounts and no suspension.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/utah-judge-suspended-making-anti-trump-comments-164629460.html

20 times Justice Don Willett slammed Donald Trump on Twitter since 2013. And how many times did Donald Trump mention Justice Don Willett on Twitter? Zero. How many times did Donald Trump tweet to Justice Don Willett? Also zero. Neither follows the other. Justice Willett made the tweet above slamming New Yorkers and lists in response to being told he was on Donald Trump's list of prospective SCOTUS nominees. Supreme slam! Justice Willett for the win!

(UPDATE: I was being sarcastic when I said "Willett for the win!" This was obviously a very poor reply to being on Trump's SCOTUS list. He should have said nothing or just released his official reply.  This comes off as childish just like some of Trump's rants and attacks. When Willett was asked about the list at Greg Abbott's book signing yesterday, Willett replied "I'm exercising judicial restraint," That "restraint" didn't last long. A few hours later Willett slammed Trump with a tweet. Eventually Willett repeated what other people on the list stated and released the following reply to reporters, 

“I respect all, and personally know several, of the judges listed. Being named alongside them for any purpose is a rich honor. They are exceptional jurists, and importantly, over half have served or are serving in the state judiciary, where most American justice is dispensed.")

Justice Don Willett of Texas @JusticeWillett makes fun of Donald Trump's @realDonaldTrump wall, Obama and Cruz "birther" rants, his lack of basic religious knowledge, his nasty demeanor, his Trump University fraud lawsuit, his stance against freedom of speech, his Megyn Kelly spat, his childish attacks on others, his Twitter wars and most of all of course his hair. Justice Willett retweets attacks by others against Donald Trump. He even encourages his followers to attack Donald Trump, Trump University and Trump's hair.

And why did Donald Trump put Justice Don Willett on his list of potential Supreme Court Justices of the United States? Just because he saw that he tweets. Asinine! Willett FTW!

Seems I missed quite a few more Trump slams. Here they are.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/don-willett-trump-twitter_us_573cb6bbe4b0646cbeebd2d5

Donald Trump doesn't seem to realize that Justice Willett is Ted Cruz's coworker and friend for many years. They have the same hateful opinions against same sex marriage, LGBT rights, pro-choice, immigrants, Muslims, Mexicans, poor people, minimum wage workers, blacklivesmatter, adequate school funding, health insurance...  They are both for religious freedom to discriminate against others especially Muslims, same sex couples, LGBT...

Still, Justice Willett would be on his knees in a heart beat to be appointed to the SCOTUS by Donald Trump. It's been his goal for his entire life. Willett has been kissing SCOTUS Justices butts for years and years. Willett went so far as to plagiarize Justice Scalia in his written response to questions from Governor Perry to become the Justice of the SCOTX. In fact Willett has a long history of plagiarizing people including the founding fathers in his opinions. Willett then demands that others quote him and not Thomas Jefferson who actually wrote the original quote.

Justice Willett is the one who begged the 84th Texas Legislature to name him "Twitter Laureate." It's obviously for media exposure to promote his campaigns for political appointments and office. Justice Willett is the one who wrote the proclamation. Willett has been interviewed many times about his Twitter account. Every time he has said he feels it's appropriate to Tweet as a Justice. It's pretty ironic that his tweets just bit him in the ass. His dream of being a SCOTUS Justice was probably just destroyed by his own tweets. There is no way Trump would appoint anyone who has made fun of him for years in such a horrible manner.

Justice Willett has stated that he didn't feel his tweets prejudiced or biased him in any cases that may come before him. That is not true. Willett frequently posts about his opinion on matters which have come and will continue to come before the court. Justice Willett has tweeted AGAINST blacklivesmatter, immigrants, Muslims, Mexicans, same sex couples, LGBT rights, pro-choice... Willett has tweeted FOR his religion Christianity, having the ten commandments on public property, having a nativity scene on public property, allowing people to discriminate against LGBT and others in the name of religion, reversing same sex marriage laws, reversing pro-choice, reversing Obama care... Willett promotes the agendas of Texas politicians Ted Cruz, Greg Abbott, Rick Perry... Willett is also pro big business, pro lawyers. I have correctly predicted Willett's case opinions based on his previously tweeted bias for or against certain parties. Here is but one tweet Willett made against blacklivesmatter and two replies. I am of course all for police officers. I went through the police academy. I'm against the person who killed the officer. He committed a horrible crime and should go to jail. Still, that is not the time to coop #blacklivesmatter. Of course the officer's life mattered. That's not the point.

Justice Don Willett used to work for Ted Cruz in the attorney general office. This is when Ted Cruz was rejected from working with Bush in the White House because Cruz is so hated.

Justice Willett made the same posts on Facebook. The tweets were saved in case Willett removes them.

Ted Cruz uses his kids as political props - Cartoon Cartoonist Ann Teleas - Washington Post

Ted Cruz uses his kids as political props - Ann Telnaes - Political cartoon, Washington Post @anntelnaes 
UPDATE: 12/25/2015: And now Ted Cruz is making sure to post photo after photo, video after video of only his girls on his campaign pages. Ted Cruz is such an ass besides a shitty dad and husband.

Another cartoonist steps up to the issue. Clay Bennett editorial cartoonist for the Chattanooga Times Free Press. I wish I thought up this cartoon because it's perfect. Exactly!

Clay Bennett political cartoon ted cruz "leave my daughters out of this" Editorial Cartoonist for the Chattanooga Times Free Press,
UPDATE: 12/24/15: Ted Cruz is upset saying Ann made fun of his kids by calling them "monkeys." Ann never called his kids "monkeys." She did infer that Ted Cruz is an organ grinder who uses his kids in his campaign. I bet Ted Cruz writes off their matching dresses, haircuts, travel, food...as a campaign expense. Hypocritical hypocrite Ted Cruz is actually the one who calls his kid "Monkey." It's her nickname which Ted gave to Caroline. Below is the video which Ted Cruz gave to the public. This bit used under the fair use of copyright act.



UPDATE: 12/23/15: Ted Cruz is now using the political cartoon in an email to raise funds. He's using the cartoon of himself as an organ grinder with leashed monkeys to act like an organ grinder with leashed monkeys. So many levels of irony and hypocrisy. I'm sure Ted Cruz is delighted as hell about the cartoon. I bet he'll frame it and put it in his office if he still has a job as senator when he loses his run for the presidency. From the email,

“But now, the liberal media has hit a new low with a tasteless attack on my children — a blatant exposure of the left’s double standard towards anything and anyone with whom they disagree.

“I’m emailing you now because I need your help to send a message to the liberal media: Stick with attacking me. My daughters are not FAIR GAME!”

He also includes a link to the cartoon, along with links for an “emergency” donation."

The artist will be writing an article about this experience. I'll post a link to it when she publishes it. I will agree that the cartoon hit a nerve but that's the point. Anyone with half a brain can clearly see the artist made fun of Ted Cruz and not his kids.

UPDATE: Ted Cruz is sharing the political cartoon! It's since been deleted so it's missing in this share but you can see the link to the cartoonist's Twitter page. If Ted Cruz thought the cartoon made fun of his kids, why did he share it far and wide on his Twitter account? Does that mean Ted Cruz supports making fun of his kids? Is Ted Cruz making fun of his own kids? Again, the cartoon is about Ted Cruz and not his kids.

Ted Cruz uses his kids as political props Cartoon Ann Teleas Washington Post

UPDATE: Gawker posted some of Ted Cruz' videos. You see the multiple takes, behind the scene, camera people telling Ted Cruz and his relatives what to say. The director tells the relative to hug Ted longer. They do a closeup of Ted's dad and his eyes are darting all over the place. The comments on the video are priceless! Most paraphrased were "the wife and kids look like they are being held hostage," "Director tells mom to hug him longer," "WTF! This is a like a 100 on the CringeOmeter. Very creepy!," "he looks like a serial killer," "How could anyone marry this bufoon," "Creepy, weird, cringe ,frightening, eerie, disturbing, sinister, weird, hair-raising, menacing etc =Ted cruz."

You even see Ted Cruz in his daughters' bed with them in their nighties rolling their eyes and yawning. Here is a still of Ted Cruz using his kids as political props.

Ted Cruz uses his kids as political props, Ted Cruz and daughters in bed
At 7:51 in this video you see the younger daughter crying, telling mommy to leave her alone, the older girl gets dragged by the dog down the street, Ted and his wife just smiling away, pointing at and waving at nothing while their kids are miserable. Ted Cruz as Daddy Dearest. They take multiple takes without sound of just walking down a sidewalk. The older girl is a hoot! She has no problem showing how much she hates being an organ grinder monkey. At 13 min you see eye rolls, long exasperated sighs, putting her head on the table, making faces...

___________________

Award winning political cartoonist Ann Teleas made a political cartoon about 2016 GOP candidate Ted Cruz using his kids as political props. The cartoon pokes fun at Ted Cruz and not his kids.  In the cartoon Ted Cruz is the organ grinder of ole cranking out songs while making cute little monkeys he has on a leash perform and beg for money. This is exactly how Ted Cruz uses his kids and wife in his campaign. Ted Cruz is the one who decided to actively uses his cute little kids in his campaign.

Since the cartoon was posted it was removed from the Washington Post by the editor. Most newspapers do not include minor children of celebrities in the magazine UNLESS the parents actively involve them. In this case Ted Cruz and his wife actively involved his kids in his campaign. Ted Cruz posted 15 hours of home videos of his kids staged and not staged telling everyone they are free to use the videos (in super pac ads). I agree with the cartoonist that Ted Cruz was indeed using his kids like an organ grinder of old to raise money. Ann Teleas did not make fun of his cute kids.

Ted Cruz actively featured his wife and kids in his SNL commercial. Ted Cruz paid to have his kids filmed. He paid to have that ad shown during SNL and on the internet. I remember seeing the video and seeing one kid over act. I thought it was hilarious because she is clearly making fun of her dad. Kudos, kid! Below is a frame from the commercial used under the fair use of copyright act.

Ted Cruz 2016 gop campaign daughters kids political props
Ted Cruz loaded up 15 hours of scripted, unscripted video of him with his wife and daughters.  to his YouTube channel. The author of the article believes it's for the sole purpose for a superpac to use it to run ads for him. Look at the comments and everyone agrees. I think this is exactly what Ann Teleas was trying to show in her cartoon. Ted Cruz is intentionally using his kids, family to get campaign donations, media attention, help his image and to try to sell himself as a family man. This video instead shows a man who only cares about his political aspirations who doesn't care about his wife and kids. His wife and kids come across only a prop.

Here is a campaign pic Ted Cruz staged and took for his campaign. His daughters are not happy. I remember being that age and being forced to wear matching dresses with my sister, hair ribbons and those same uncomfortable shoes for family events and photos. Hated it! No kid wants to do that. To force them for your political benefit is not a good parent. Notice most celebs keep their kids away from cameras but Ted forces them to act like organ grinder monkeys in the political cartoon.

Back in October I called out Ted Cruz on intentionally using his daughters as a prop. Below is the photo I was referencing and my reply.

Ted Cruz GOP politician 2016 uses his kids as political props
I personally don't feel politicians should use their kids to drum up votes media coverage


Ted Cruz uses daughters as political campaign props Washington Post Ann Teleas

Here is a pic of Ted Cruz using his daughters as props for the 13,454th time in the last few years for his last few runs for office.  Daughters are not happy. They look like unhappy leashed organ grinder monkeys holding and waving a flag for no reason they can possibly understand. I doubt his wife is happy either. She had some issues when she had to move for Ted Cruz' job. I don't blame her. She's a beautiful woman, extremely intelligent, charismatic who had to give up her career to be a political prop for a nasty woman hating Texas politician. She had to sell her daughters into political prop slavery. I bet Ted Cruz took them out of school to campaign for him.

Another pic showing the kids as miserable while Heidi does a great big fake smile. Both kids look like "I don't like this. Why are we here, mommy? I wanna go home!"

Below Ted Cruz prays at a campaign stop. Wife goes along with Ted's shit. Daughters don't close their eyes and bow their head. I don't fricking blame them! One daughter is like "this shit gives me such a headache."

Ted Cruz uses daughters as political campaign props gop 2016
Based on what Ted Cruz says he believes about women, their bodies, fetuses, rape, rape rape, religion, Texan male chauvinist crap, his wife is in hell. She was forced to drag her daughters into that same life long hell. I can't tell you how happy I am my family got the hell out of Texas. I have not met more corrupt politicians, judges or lawyers in my life. I really thought the worst politicians, judges, lawyers would be in New York, Los Angeles, maybe Florida. Nope, I was wrong. It's definitely Texas. When I see Heidi like this I feel for her like I felt for Tom Cruise's ex-wife Katie Holmes. Katie was at least strong enough to leave Scientology nut Tom Cruise to save her daughter. Poor Cruz wife and kids will be forced to live a life of GOP slavery ... like organ grinder monkeys.

I predict this political cartoon will win awards BECAUSE it was yanked by politicians trying to use it for their gain. You go, Ann Teleas!

People are saying the press and others never went after Malia or Sasha. That is not true. Here a state employee is ragging the girls about their dresses and facial expressions. This is a direct attack on the teenagers.

http://www.thewrap.com/gop-staffer-goes-after-sasha-and-malia-for-classless-behavior/

Here a congressman is attacking Sasha and Malia for vacationing in Mexico and the Bahamas.

http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2013/03/27/1783981/steve-king-obama-daughters/

Here are some political cartoons with Sasha and Malia in them. There are actually a lot more. There are also cartoons and pics attacking the daughters. You can easily find them on your own.




I made a political image few weeks ago which some people didn't like. The image rings true to what is happening with Governors who proclaim to be "good" Christians and Catholics. They refuse refugees yet support nativity scenes in their state capitols. The irony was too much for me to ignore. Here's my image.

Merry Christmas to all Christian Catholic Governors who refused to help Syrian refugees

A few crazy things Ted Cruz actually said - If you or I said these things, we'd be locked up #gop 2016

Ted Cruz, Rafael Edward Cruz, republican, 2016, gop, candidate, stupid, crazy, things said by ted cruz, quotes

Here are but a few of the crazy, insane, false things Ted Cruz has said. Some I heard first hand. The others I collected. Every single major magazine and newspaper has called Ted Cruz one of the craziest presidential candidates of all time. Seriously, if you or I were to say these things, we'd be locked up.

He said during a speech in Iowa on Dec. 5 that "we will utterly destroy ISIS. We will carpet bomb them into oblivion. I don't know if sand can glow in the dark, but we're going to find out."
To carpet bomb is to indiscriminately flatten a certain large area. Cruz meant to target ISIS members only.

October 2015 Des Moines campaign stop via Des Moines Register when questioned about the Supreme Court Justices.

“One more liberal justice and our right to keep and bear arms is taken away from us by an activist court." “One more liberal justice and they begin sandblasting and bulldozing veterans memorials throughout this country,” Cruz said according to the Des Moines Register. “One more liberal justice and we lose our sovereignty to the United Nations and the World Court.”

November 10, 2014 Tweet
"Net Neutrality" is Obamacare for the Internet; the Internet should not operate at the speed of government."

“We have never had a president who over and over again openly, aggressively defies the law. If he doesn’t like the law, he refuses to enforce it, or he simply proclaims it changed.”

“But a Camel’s hair brush is made of squirrel fur, and it makes you wonder the squirrels apparently have a very bad marketing department.”

“I’LL WORK WITH MARTIANS”

“Twenty years from now if there is some obscure trivial pursuit question, I am confident I will be the answer.”

“I WAS BITTEN BY AN OCTOPUS”

“I will credit my father, he invented … green eggs and ham. He did it two ways. The easy way was he would put green food coloring in … But if you take spinach and mix it into the eggs, the eggs turn green … I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them, Sam I am.”

“The moon might be as intimidating as Obamacare.”

https://ourfuture.org/20150323/ted-cruz-is-running-for-president-here-are-the-crazy-things-he-believes

Ted Cruz launched his fake filibuster against Obamacare by claiming that failing to fight the implementation of Obamacare was akin to appeasing Adolf Hitler, and anyone who didn’t support his plans to stop health care reform were like Neville Chamberlain.

Cruz once told a group of conservatives, “You no longer have a president,” because Barack Obama had implemented health care reform in a “lawless” way.

Cruz told ABC’s Jonathan Karl that he believed the GOP could repeal Obamacare with Obama still in office.

When he was running for the Senate, Cruz said that Texas should let the uninsured get health care from emergency rooms.

Cruz promised to “uphold the sacrament of marriage” as president.

Cruz claimed that court rulings in favor of same-sex marriage are “a real threat to our liberty.”

Cruz claimed that Houston pastors may soon be “hauled off to jail for a hate crime,” due to the city’s anti-discrimination ordinance.

Cruz’ father, Rafael Cruz, may be as much of an asset to his son’s campaign as a thorn in its side. The senior Cruz has a record of staying things so outrageous that Ted Cruz at one time denied his father spoke for him, even was his aide was booking dad’s gigs.

Cruz claimed that legislation to protect access to abortion services is “a manifestation of the war on women.”

Cruz said the Democrats seeking to amend the constitution to give Congress the power to regulate campaign financing were really out to “expressly repeal the free-speech protections of the First Amendment.”

Cruz also derided “Farenheit 451 Democrats,” claiming that a proposed campaign finance amendment shows that liberals wanted to ban and burn books.

Cruz claimed the amendment to get money out of politics would “censor” Saturday Night Live, and “Lorne Michaels (of Saturday Night Live) could be put in jail under this amendment for making fun of any politician.”

Cruz also claimed that the amendment to repeal Citizens United would “muzzle” pastors.

Cruz called the standoff between the Bureau of Land Management and supporters of scofflaw and racist rancher Cliven Bundy, the “unfortunate and tragic culmination of the path that President Obama has set the federal government upon.”

Cruz claimed that the United Nations/George Soros “Agenda 21” would “abolish ‘unsustainable’ environments, including golf courses, grazing pastures, and paved roads.”

http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2013/10/11/2770311/craziest-ted-cruz-said-today/

1. On Obama’s plot to kidnap him: “So this afternoon President Obama has invited the Senate Republicans to the White House. So after leaving here, I’m going to be going to the White House. I will make a request. if I’m never seen again, please send a search and rescue team. I very much hope by tomorrow morning I don’t wake up amidst the Syrian rebels.”

2. On the press: “The media wants America to give up and allow this country to keep sliding off the edge of the cliff.”

3. On the Constitution: “This is an administration that seems bound and determine to violate every single one of our bill of rights. I don’t know that they have yet violated the Third Amendment, but I expect them to start quartering soldiers in peoples’ homes soon.”

4. On the hecklers who interrupted his speech: “Is anybody left at OFA headquarters? I’m actually glad that the president’s whole political staff is here instead of actually doing mischief in the country

5. On hecklers, again: “It would seem that President Obama’s paid political operatives are out in force. The men and women in this room scare the living daylights out of them.”

6. On hecklers, a third time: “How scared is the President? What a statement of fear, what a statement of fear. Oh, they don’t want the truth to be heard. They definitely don’t want the truth to be heard.”

7. On the Cold War: “Our foreign policy is detente, which I’m pretty sure is French for surrender.”

8. On Vice President Biden: “You don’t need a punchline. You just say his name, people laugh.”

http://www.forwardprogressives.com/top-10-most-embarrassing-ted-cruz-moments/

10. He recently publicly pushed for the repeal of a federal law that doesn’t exist.

9. While trying to bash President Obama and Hillary Clinton, he managed to not only point out just how terrible George W. Bush’s policies were for our economy, but he essentially proved that trickle-down economics is disastrous for our economy.

8. During the net neutrality debate, Cruz was proud to show off the fact that he clearly has no idea what the term actually means.

7. As the Ebola “scare” raged on last year, Cruz publicly denounced the information the CDC was giving Americans about the virus (information that turned out to be 100 percent correct)… because it was too complex for him to understand.

6. We can’t forget the time he was booed off stage at a Christian event.

5. After building a large part of his political career on opposing the Affordable Care Act, he was asked what his alternative would be if the law were to be repealed – then proceeded to look like a fool trying to dodge the question, never once offering any sort of alternative.

4. During a recent speech his fear-mongering was so ridiculous that it startled a poor little girl in the audience, whose mother then lied to her to ease her fears.

3. Just a few weeks after our government shutdown ended, Cruz tried to claim at an event that he never wanted a shutdown – and the audience erupted into laughter.

2. A couple of weeks ago he gave one of his usual speeches loaded with “applause points” – that were met with absolute silence.

1. He proudly proclaimed that we needed “100 more senators like Jesse Helms” – a racist who opposed the Civil Rights Act; supported apartheid in South Africa; frequently tried to block the appointment of African-American judges; and used a filibuster to try to prevent naming a federal holiday after Martin Luther King.

I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention his infamous moment on the Senate floor when he twisted the meaning of Dr. Seuss’s classic Green Eggs and Ham to suit his anti-Obamacare agenda – that embarrassing moment stands in a league of its own.

http://www.rawstory.com/2015/03/12-ridiculous-ted-cruz-quotes-that-show-why-the-proud-wacko-bird-will-never-be-president/

1. “‘Net neutrality’ is Obamacare for the Internet”
In November of last year, after President Barack Obama announced his support for “net neutrality,” Cruz had no choice but to come out against it, tweeting “Net Neutrality’ is Obamacare for the Internet; the Internet should not operate at the speed of government.”

2. “Instead of nominating a health professional, he nominated someone who is an anti-gun activist”
In an interview with Candy Crowley, Cruz claimed that the president’s pick for surgeon general, Vivek Murthy, wasn’t qualified because of statements he had made about the Second Amendment.

3. Obama just a “social worker” who wants to put ISIS “on expanded Medicaid”
In an appearance on Fox News’ Hannity, Cruz complained that United States military leaders were taking too many cues from the president. “It’s not our job,” he said, “to be social workers in Iraq and put them all on expanded Medicaid. It is our job to kill terrorists who have declared war on America and who have demonstrated the intention and capability to murder innocent Americans.”

4. “It is the job of a chaplain to be insensitive to atheists”
Speaking at a home schooling convention, Cruz said that “we have never seen an administration with such hostility to religious faith. Last year, there was a chaplain in the Air Force up in Alaska who wrote in a blog post the phrase ‘There are no atheists in fox holes.’ He was ordered by his supervising officer to take it down. I guess it was deemed insensitive to atheists. I kind of thought it was the job of a chaplain to be insensitive to atheists.”

5. “I didn’t threaten to shut down the government”
After leading the GOP charge to shut down the government, Cruz repeatedly claimed that he had nothing to do with the GOP shutting down the government.

6. “I will renounce any Canadian citizenship”
After speaking to Donald Trump about a possible run for the White House, Cruz admitted that he was born in Calgary, Canada. However, he told The Dallas Morning News that “I will renounce any Canadian citizenship. Nothing against Canada, but I’m an American by birth and as a US senator I believe I should be only an American.”

7. “I expect them to start quartering soldiers in people’s homes soon”
At the 2013 Values Voter Summit, Cruz said Obama was intent on violating the entire Bill of Rights. “You look at our Constitution, you look at our Bill of Rights, this is an administration that seems bound and determined to violate every single one of our Bill or Rights,” he said, adding “I don’t know that they’ve yet violated the Third Amendment, but I expect them to start quartering soldiers in people’s homes soon.”

8. “Gay marriage” leads to Christianity becoming “hate speech”
In an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network, Cruz said that “if you look at other nations that have gone down the road towards gay marriage, that’s the next step of where it gets enforced. It gets enforced against Christian pastors who decline to perform gay marriages, who speak out and preach biblical truths on marriage, that has been defined elsewhere as hate speech, as inconsistent with the enlightened view of government.”

9. “I am a very, very proud wacko bird”
Responding to a statement by Senator John McCain that his opposition to immigration reform made him a “wacko bird,” Cruz to CBS News that “if standing for liberty and standing for the Constitution makes you a wacko bird then I am a very, very proud wacko bird.”

10. “I have never seen a Hispanic panhandler”
On Fox News Sunday in 2012, Cruz told host Chris Wallace that, “in my life, I have never once seen an Hispanic panhandler. In our community, it would be viewed as shameful to be out on the street begging.”

11. “Your world is on fire!”
At an event in New Hampshire last week, Cruz said “the Obama-Clinton foreign policy of leading from behind — the whole world is on fire.” When a little girl replied, “the world is on fire?” Cruz responded by saying, “Yes! Your world is on fire!”

12. “Green Eggs and Ham”
During his “filibuster” of the Affordable Care Act, Cruz took time out to read his daughters a bedtime story. “I don’t get to read it that often because I tell them, ‘Go pick the books you want to read and I read it to them,’” Cruz said on the Senate floor. “But since tonight, girls, you aren’t here, you don’t get to pick the book, so I get to pick Green Eggs and Ham.”
