This, of course, is ridiculous on many levels.įIRST, look at that above photo of Cruz at the airport. My team and I will continue using all our resources to keep Texans informed and safe. We want our power back, our water on, and our homes warm. My staff and I are in constant communication with state and local leaders to get to the bottom of what happened in Texas. Wanting to be a good dad, I flew down with them last night and am flying back this afternoon. With school cancelled for the week, our girls asked to take a trip with friends.

With the backlash both immediate, powerful and coming from every side - even Fox News posted the photos of Cruz at the airport - Cruz released a statement on Thursday. We can think of no better use of this department’s time and resources. Indeed, a Houston police spokeswoman has told People Magazine that Cruz’s staff "called yesterday to say that he would be in the airport and requested HPD’s assistance, at which time, when he arrived at Bush Intercontinental Airport, our officers monitored his movements." … he enlisted the help of Houston police officers to ensure his safety.

He was then also photographed a short time later on board a United Airlines flight booked for Cancun, much to the absolute consternation of even those who expect very little from their elected officials. His children asked really nicely go away for a bit!Īs you can see via the photo above, taken by a heroic fellow traveler, Cruz was spotted on Wednesday evening at the airport in Dallas. Is his home state really getting hit by record-low temperatures and several days’ worth of snowstorms, while being so ill-equipped to handle such weather that millions of residents are without power and/or water?ĭid Cruz truly jet off on Wednesday night for a vacation to Cancun, despite the conditions in the state he represents outlined above?īut what did you expect the least-popular politician in D.C. Is he one of only two Senators from Texas? Yes. Ted Cruz really doesn’t understand what all the fuss is about.
