Ted Cruz Throws A Fit An Accuses Biden Of Intimidating Tucker Carlson

Tucker Carlson attacked women in the military. The military responded by disagreeing with Carlson. Ted Cruz is claiming Biden is trying to intimidate Carlson.

Carlson attacked President Biden for praising women in the military, and then took it to his usual bonkers level by claiming that pregnant women will be fighting all of our wars.

Ted Cruz has turned into a conspiracy that Joe Biden is masterminding to intimidate a Fox News host. There is no evidence that Biden has done anything besides praise women in the military.

Sen. Cruz (R-TX) is trying to create a Biden scandal, as he is seeking a platform to launch his 2024 presidential campaign.

Republicans have nothing.

President Biden is about to tour the country and remind Americans that Republicans voted against the stimulus.

Ted Cruz is looking for a way to smear Biden by defending a sexist pig like Tucker Carlson.

This isn’t going to end well for Sen. Cruz.

On a personal note, I still believe that Cruz may be the Zodiac Killer. I can't prove it, I just think he is.

He called women serving "a mockery of the U.S. military." Now he's getting a ton of deserved pushback, including from senior officers -- and suddenly this isn't about the abhorrent BS he was flinging, it's about people being mean to poor Tucker.

Well boo frickin' hoo. If you can't do the time, don't spread the slime.

And yet they think they can disrespect the women who serve every day in the military.

and the whole crowd of peons to whom "public service" is a derogatory term.

There a whole lot more of us -- veterans and active duty -- than there are of them, and an attack on one is an attack on all. I think Carlson may be on his way out, if he keeps attacking our military.

Lost, apparently, is the fact that women in the military are being called a "mockery" by a talking head who is making a mockery of American "journalism."

They've all been taking notes on the rise of the former guy.

To their base, assholery is a feature, not a bug.

You are on to something. Cruz looks like what I think the Zodiac Killer looks like. Weird, isn't it. Could be him.

If that's true, how could he possibly intimidate a manly warrior like Tucker Carlson?
