Exclusive — Ted Cruz Caves to Democrat
Amy Klobuchar on Media Cartel Bill

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 9/22/2022 2:04:02 AM

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) has caved to the Democrats on legislation that would allow media organizations to create formal cartels to negotiate with Big Tech companies, several congressional aides and others familiar with the process told Breitbart News on Wednesday. If Cruz goes forward with his plans to back—and allow the senate to advance—the legislation, then he will immediately become one of the biggest enablers of the establishment media and Big Tech giants and he could seriously jeopardize his political future.

I attended an event in Mt. Pleasant, SC where Ted Cruz was speaking. I haven't trusted him since that time. I could never put my finger on just why. Even some conservatives are fake. I was listening to the Lt. Governor of Texas on some news show yesterday. He talked all over actually doing something about illegals coming across the border after the interviewer asked him why Texas didn't declare an invasion and put troops on the border. He talked and talked but never answered the question. He thought complaining about what biden was/wasn't doing was enough. They're all playing US.

Anything the treasonous hack Klobuchar backs would nor could ever help America in any capacity. Cruz just lost all pretense of being a conservative; at least a conservative that couldn't be bought.

Yertle the Turtle must have something on him. If this turns out to be true and he does not adequately explain how he can throw the 1st Amendment down the toilet to protect the ENEMIES of free speech while at the same time still professing that this IS free speech, this will be his political death knell. His current term ends in 2024..... let the Texas Primary for '24 begin!

The Media and Big Tech are already thoroughly corrupt and deep in the pockets of the left. There is nothing anybody can do at this point to reform either one until honesty returns to government, or should I say that honesty needs to be introduced to government for the first time?

Everybody please calm down. Until Cruz says that he is doing this, or actually does it, it is nothing but hearsay from basically "unnamed sources". I live in Texas. This does not sound like Cruz in the least to me. If it is true, he will instantly become the Manchin of the Republican Party, and his career will be gone. But this wreaks of dirty politics to me, and based on his mostly solid conservative history, I'm not jumping on this "he is dead to me" over-reaction based on "media reports" until something actually happens to deserve it.

More Good News in Senate Race That Wasn't

We’ve been keeping a close watch on the race for the Senate and the numbers just seem to keep moving in the direction of the Republicans. We’ve noted how even in races where the Republicans seemed far back to start with, such as with Blake Masters in Arizona and Dr. Mehmet Oz in Pennsylvania, they’ve gained and now both of those races are tight. Meanwhile, Democrats are behind in races they need to win in places like Nevada and Georgia. But in what has to be a real stunner, in a race that wasn’t even on most experts’ radar as a question, is Washington. Earlier in September, we’d noted Washington

The Democrats’ massive climate spending and tax bill gave the Department of Agriculture (USDA) $2.2 billion in loans to pay farmers, many of whom are black, who have previously been denied USDA loans due to discrimination. The provision, which was backed by Democratic Sens. Cory Booker of New Jersey and Raphael Warnock of Georgia, is intended to provide financial assistance to farmers, ranchers or forest landowners that the department determines to have experienced discrimination in USDA farm lending programs before Jan. 1. 2021, according to the bill’s text. Although the funding could go to any farmer that the government has discriminated against, such as white women or members of the LGBTQ

Goldman Sachs has launched a wave of mass layoffs of workers across the US after dishing out cushy bonuses and high salaries during the pandemic - amid an anticipated drop in earnings as the economy slows. The investment banking division of the Wall Street giant launched the effort last week, according to a report, firing hundreds of bankers in offices across the globe, as it looks to rein in expenses and weed out low-performing employees. Employees at all levels were affected by the cull, sources said - with the brunt of the effort being felt by senior-to-mid-level staffers, such as several senior associates and vice presidents.

We’re doomed. Joe Biden on Monday delivered remarks at a meeting with the White House Competition Council in the State Dining Room.

Joe Biden made many false claims during his remarks.“Like many of you, I grew up in a family where when the price of gasoline went up, it was a conversation at the breakfast table — for real!” Biden said. This never happened. Gas prices were flat during Joe Biden’s childhood.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla.— A NASA spacecraft rammed an asteroid at blistering speed Monday in an unprecedented dress rehearsal for the day a killer rock menaces Earth. The galactic grand slam occurred at a harmless asteroid 7 million miles (9.6 million kilometers) away, with the spacecraft named Dart plowing into the small space rock at 14,000 mph (22,500 kph). Scientists expected the impact to carve out a crater, hurl streams of rocks and dirt into space and, most importantly, alter the asteroid’s orbit. Telescopes around the world and in space aimed at the same point in the sky to capture the spectacle. Though the impact was immediately obvious —

NASA is set to intentionally crash a spacecraft into an asteroid at 15,000mph today. Such a mission may evoke memories of a Hollywood disaster movie such as Armageddon or Deep Impact, but this is very much real and is actually part of the US space agency's first ever planetary defence test. Of course, there is no actual risk to Earth. This is merely an experiment that, if successful, could one day pave the way for protecting our planet from a catastrophic impact from space. The Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) was launched last November ahead of an almost year-long journey to crash into the small asteroid Dimorphos,

You have to admire the chutzpah of California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who ludicrously claimed last weekend that Democrats were at a disadvantage because conservative media controls the story. Really! “These guys are ruthless on the other side. Ruthless on the other side,” Newsom said. “That prime-time lineup by Fox, they are ruthless. They dominate the most important thing in American politics today, and that’s the narrative. Facts become secondary to narrative. They dominate with illusion. We are getting crushed.” It’s the ultimate in projection. On story after story, the media follow Democratic talking points to the letter.

Joe Biden's student loan relief plan could cost the country $400 billion over the next decade as the administration prepares to unveil next steps for borrowers to apply for forgiveness as early as next month. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office noted in a letter to the Senate and House Labor committees noting the high cost of the president's relief plan, as well as reporting the plan would cause outstanding student loans to increase by $20 billion. In August, Biden announced his plan to cancel $10,000 in federal student loan debt for borrowers making less than $125,000 individually and $250,000 jointly. That forgiveness would rise to $20,000 for those with Pell Grants.

She did so at a speech in Kentucky where she was lauded Republican Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who helped stall Barack Obama's nominees and helped confirm a raft of lifetime appointments on the Supreme Court under President Donald Trump. Sinema made the comment even as a substantial number of Democrats are hoping to roll back the filibuster, or at least carve out exceptions for abortion

Florida could start feeling Ian’s wrath as early as Tuesday, with hurricane conditions potentially hitting the state Wednesday. Evacuation orders were issued Monday for some military personnel and residents, as Ian whipped 80-mph winds and churned northwest about 100 miles west of Grand Cayman, the Miami-based National Hurricane Center said. “Rapid strengthening is expected during the next day or so, and Ian is forecast to become a major hurricane (Monday night) or early Tuesday when

I have had to recalibrate my belief system. The “crime” fell quite a bit short of murder.

Special Counsel John Durham continues to ignore the FBI’s malfeasance in the Crossfire Hurricane targeting of Donald Trump, a Friday court filing by prosecutors in the criminal case against Igor Danchenko confirms. While that approach may have been prudent and in the country’s best interests three and a half years ago, when then-Attorney General Bill Barr tasked Durham to investigate the origins of the Russia collusion hoax, it is no longer judicious. The special counsel’s failure to appreciate this reality threatens the government’s case against Danchenko, but more significantly has spurred the Biden administration, the D.C. deep state, and partisan state officials to further weaponize the criminal justice system
