Ted Cruz Takes Shots at\u200d Democrat Officials in \u2064Latest \u200dPodcast Episode<\/h2>\n<p>In a recent episode of his podcast, Sen. \u200bTed \u200cCruz (R-TX) didn&#8217;t hold \u2062back as he discussed various <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/live-now-pentagon-press-secretary-holds-media-briefing-march-21\/\" title=\"LIVE NOW: Pentagon Press Secretary Holds Media Briefing (March 21)\">current events happening<\/a> across the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>During the episode, Cruz touched\u2062 on significant topics such as\u2062 the 9\/11 anniversary, the Biden administration reportedly considering keeping\u200b illegal aliens in\u200b Texas, and New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham unilaterally suspending open and concealed carry laws in\u2063 her state.<\/p>\n<p>Cruz made these remarks on his &#8220;Verdict&#8221; podcast with co-host Ben Ferguson on Monday, coinciding with the nation&#8217;s mourning of the 22nd anniversary of the \u200c9\/11 terrorist attacks.<\/p>\n<h3>Addressing the Vulnerability on the Southern Border<\/h3>\n<p>Early in the\u200d podcast, Cruz highlighted the vulnerability of the \u200cnation&#8217;s southern border, emphasizing that numerous individuals on the terror watch \u200dlist have been apprehended there.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;The open border is also an invitation to terrorists,&#8221; Cruz\u200c stated. &#8220;If you&#8217;re the next planner of 9\/11, \u2062it&#8217;s obvious where you go &#8211; \u2064you go to Mexico. And you come right \u200bacross. And Joe Biden, and the idiots in \u2062his administration, will fly you to wherever you \u200dwant to go in this country, \u200cand you can carry out your terror attack. And sadly, \u200cevery\u2062 day that we have \u200can open border under Joe Biden and\u200c the \u200cDemocrats, the odds of another major attack in this country, a \u200bmajor terror attack go up systematically, they are exposing us. They are exposing vulnerabilities\u2064 whether it is someone\u2064 trying to hijack an airplane or whether it is a suicide \u2062bomber in a mall,\u200b or an amusement park, or a concert, \u200dor what have you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Debunking the Proposal to Use Ankle Monitors<\/h3>\n<p>Several minutes later, Cruz addressed a report from the Washington Free Beacon that claimed the \u2064Biden administration was considering\u2062 using ankle monitors to prevent illegal immigrants from leaving Texas.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Look, this is utter and complete garbage. It is nakedly political. \u2063It is blatantly illegal,&#8221;\u2063 Cruz \u200cexclaimed. &#8220;There is no other explanation for this. The reason \u200cthey want to target Texas is\u2062 because they hate Texas, \u2064because Texas is red. Listen, 7.2 million people have \u200dcrossed illegally under \u2063Joe Biden, is he really proposing let&#8217;s keep all 7.2 million in Texas? We got 30 million Texans.\u200d Yeah, he wants to take us to 37 million Texans and have a quarter \u2062of the \u200bstate be illegal and he wants to do\u200d that so that he doesn&#8217;t upset Democrats in blue states. This is, it is blatantly illegal. And it is \u2064it is illegality piled on illegality.\u2062 Look, current federal law requires that he deport these people. He&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/major-sanctuary-state-close-to-allowing-non-citizen-police-to-arrest-us-citizens-in-defiance-of-federal-law\/\" title=\"Sanctuary state nears approval for non-citizen police to detain US citizens, defying federal law.\">defying federal law<\/a>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Setting the Record Straight on the Border Crisis<\/h3>\n<p>Cruz also\u2064 took a shot at New York City Democrat Mayor Eric Adams for \u2064blaming Texas Governor Greg Abbott for the illegal immigration crisis that has spread to his city.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Newsflash, the border crisis was not caused by Governor \u200cGreg \u2064Abbott. You \u2064know \u2064who the border\u2064 crisis was caused by? Joe Biden, Kamala \u2062Harris, Chuck Schumer,\u2064 Nancy Pelosi,&#8221; Cruz asserted. &#8220;You know, if\u200c Eric Adams doesn&#8217;t like this border crisis, \u2062he ought to pick up the phone and call\u2063 someone who lives in Manhattan. His name is Charles\u2062 Schumer. And \u2064Chuck Schumer has \u2063defended Joe Biden&#8217;s open borders every single day for\u2062 the last \u2064two and a half years. He&#8217;s blocked every effort to secure the border. He&#8217;s blocked every effort \u200dto build\u2062 the wall. He&#8217;s blocked every \u200deffort\u200c to deport \u2064illegal immigrants. He&#8217;s\u200c blocked every effort to reinstate the remain-in-Mexico policy. \u2063He&#8217;s blocked every effort to pass Kate&#8217;s law, which I introduced to lock up and have mandatory minimum\u200b sentences for violent criminals who repeatedly reenter this \u200ccountry. \u2063Eric\u2064 Adams&#8217; \u2064party\u200b created this problem, and \u200bthey didn&#8217;t just create \u2064it\u200b in \u200dthe past. They are \u200bcreating it\u2064 today. And they intend to create it tomorrow.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Condemning the Restriction of Constitutional Rights<\/h3>\n<p>Cruz then turned his attention to Governor Michelle\u200c Lujan Grisham, who recently\u200b signed an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/cruz-unloads-on-biden-nm-governor-grisham-nyc-mayor-adams\/\" title=\"Cruz criticizes Biden, Grisham, and Adams.\">executive order \u200bdeclaring gun violence<\/a>\u200c a public emergency in her state, subsequently using it to restrict people&#8217;s \u2064constitutional \u2062rights.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Look, unfortunately, this is \u200bthe consequence today\u2064 if you elect Democrats &#8211; they will come after\u2062 your constitutional rights, it&#8217;s who they are,&#8221; Cruz\u2064 warned. &#8220;The one unifying \u2062factor of Democrats today is they are, I believe, a totalitarian party.\u200b They believe, they&#8217;re statist,\u200b they believe in government control. And you look \u2062at what the governor of New \u2063Mexico has done here. It is\u200c utterly, blatantly, brazenly, unapologetically lawless.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Cruz concluded by reminding \u2063listeners of the importance of the Second Amendment and the right to keep and bear arms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sen.
