POLITICS:
Cruz pounded by Democrats over Cancun expedition; Republicans largely quiet
Democrats think Sen. Ted Cruz’s journey to Cancun as his state deals with an energy crisis has actually offered them a political cudgel they can utilize to whack him, with some even requiring his resignation.
Texas Democratic Celebration Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa provided a declaration contacting the senator to step down.
“Ted Cruz jetting off to Mexico while Texans remain dying in the cold isn’t surprising but it is deeply disturbing and disappointing,” he stated. “Now, he is proving to be an enemy to our state by abandoning us in our greatest time of need. For the 21st time, the Texas Democratic Party calls on Ted Cruz to resign or be expelled from office.”
White Home press secretary Jen Psaki, asked to weigh in on the debate, did not straight comment however included an appearing dig at Cruz.
“I don’t have any updates on the exact location of Sen. Ted Cruz,” Psaki stated. “Our focus is on working directly with leadership in Texas and surrounding states on addressing the winter storm and the crisis at hand. Many people across the state are without power, without the resources they need. We expect that would be the focus of anyone in the state or in surrounding states who is elected to represent them.”
TED CRUZ FLEW TO MEXICO WITH HOUSEHOLD AMIDST POWER CRISIS
Cruz was spotted boarding an aircraft to Mexico with his household Wednesday night, leaving Texas’ unusual below-freezing temperature levels and extensive power blackouts.
Millions were left without power, some for days, as the grid was overwhelmed by an unmatched need for energy throughout a huge winter season storm in Texas. Since Thursday early morning, 500,000 were still without power.
The Texas Republican politician was arranged to go back to the Lone Star State Thursday afternoon after critics knocked him for leaving the state Wednesday night throughout the energy crisis. Cruz launched a declaration Thursday detailing his strategies to return.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., stated that if Cruz resigned after the Capitol riot as she had actually required, he “could’ve taken his vacation in peace.”
“If Sen. Cruz had resigned back in January after helping gin up a violent insurrection that killed several people, he could’ve taken his vacation in peace,” she stated. “Texans should continue to demand his resignation.”

Fellow Team member Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., compared her work after the George Floyd discontent in Minnesota to Cruz’s journey.
“After the George Floyd uprisings in Minneapolis, when thousands were struggling to find food, my office and I held food drives and donated more than 20 tons of food to the community,” she composed on Twitter. “On the other hand, as countless Texans do not have power, heat, and food, @tedcruz avoids to Cancun. Hm.”
Jaime Harrison, Democratic National Committee chair, advised Texans to vote Cruz out in the next election. “#ProfileInLeadership #CancunCruz Texas, you are worthy of a lot better! Update your representation beginning in ‘22!”
Previous 2020 governmental prospect Julian Castro stated Cruz need to be investing his time dealing with federal firms. “In crises like these, members of Congress play a critical role connecting their constituents to emergency services and assistance,” he composed on Twitter. “@tedcruz should be on the phone with federal agencies, not on a trip to Mexico.”
Cruz declared that throughout the journey he had actually remained in “constant communication” with his group to get to the bottom of the power scarcity.
“My staff and I are in constant communication with state and local leaders to get to the bottom of what happened in Texas. We want our power back, our water on, and our homes warm. My team and I will continue using all our resources to keep Texans informed and safe,” he stated in a declaration.

“With school canceled for the week, our girls asked to take a trip with friends,” he described. “Wanting to be a good dad, I flew down with them last night and am flying back this afternoon.
