On the political front, the BDS for sure. On a domestic violent extremist threat, the white supremacists for sure...

Who Leads SCOTUS?

Posted By Rod Kaufman

"The Supreme Court’s six Republican-appointed justices clearly dominate the bench, but as they reshape American law there is little consensus among court watchers over who is the conservative wing’s true leader."
“I think we can say that Kavanaugh is probably the most powerful."
“Kavanaugh can say, look, I’m only going to venture out this way if I get the opinion myself, or else I’m going in the other direction,” Feldman said. “So he has power in a few different ways, and ultimately he can force the hand of the person who’s assigning the case if he’s that vote.”
So much for looking at the law...

That's the typical school boy response I'd expect from Greg upon hearing the news about one of his heroes...

Because I recall you posting about your liking him as gaining traction as a possible presidential candidate. Just wanted you to know what kind of a man he is, similar to Josh Hawley giving the fist pump to Jan 6th rioters and then running out of the capitol building by passing everybody else....

The source was HIM, from his own book...

Please let us know, because the idea that he "Hid in a Closet" is a complete mischaracterization, but then this is your regular MO.
"Its a lie, but you regurgitate lies all the time. " No, you;re the one who is lying:
"Cruz said he was met with hot tempers after he and his fellow senators were led to a secure location, with some blaming him and his allies in the chamber “explicitly for the violence that was occurring”. After all, Cruz was among those who had helped spread the ousted Republican president’s lies that the election had been stolen from him, fueling the mob that now was invading the Capitol."
“While we waited for the Capitol to be secured, I assembled our coalition in a back room (really, a supply closet with stacked chairs) to discuss what we should do next,” Cruz continued, according to Newsweek."
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/oct/24/ted-cruz-supply-closet-january-6-riot-book

Additionally, "As we evacuated the floor, Mitt Romney turned to me and the other objectors and said with a snarl, 'This is what you've gotten us!' And the Democrats were even angrier," Cruz wrote."
"While we waited for the Capitol to be secured, I assembled our coalition in a back room (really, a supply closet with stacked chairs) to discuss what we should do next," Cruz wrote."

I've also put in some spacing so your blathering, incoherent response is somewhat coherent. 

Then I placed in boldface the statement from Cruz's book where Ted Cruz wrote this:  

"while we waited for the Capitol to be secured, I assembled our coalition in a back room (really, a supply closet with stacked chairs) to discuss what we should do next,"

So where in the statement he made in his book does it indicate that HE hid in a closet?

These are the facts of what transpired that day, since you never read his book, because you don't read books, you read propaganda shoved up your backside by your corrupt leftist media and then you regurgitate it like the parrot you are.

Here is what happened that day:  

The Capitol police came in to the chambers and told ALL of the Senators they needed to leave the room for their own safety, because of the rioters in other areas of the Capitol.

Cruz stated that He and other Senators in his group waited for the capitol to be secured in a back room which happened to be a supply closet, to discuss and figure out what they should do next.

To any thinking individual with even half a brain, when the cops come and tell you to stay in the building but find a safe place, most intelligent individuals would find a place away from the rioters to discuss business.  

That's what Cruz and the other Senators did, they found a safe place where he stated in his book they "discussed and figured out what to do next"

(and yes, keep working on those brain cells of yours because at some point in your life you might actually elevate yourself to become a half-wit instead of the complete DIM-wit that you are now)

The left leaning Dallas Morning News even reported that No, Cruz did not hide in a closet.

Here is the article:  https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2022/10/25/did-texas-republican-sen-ted-cruz-really-hide-in-a-closet-during-the-jan-6-riot/

From the article: 

But did the Texas Republican actually seek refuge from the rampaging mob by running into a closet?   No, not really.
In a new book, Cruz describes how the riot prompted senators to abandon the chamber and scramble to a secure, undisclosed location. 

So then, even the left leaning Dallas Morning News didn't lie about it like the biased leftist sources you provided to your spin.

Tell us all tough guy, what would you have done as a Senator?  Nobody really knew what was going on and whether or not the crazies who were rioting wouldn't try to hurt people.

Most unarmed people leave when the cops tell them to leave.

But being Captain Marvel, as you apparently intimate that you are, explain to us what YOUR move would have been if YOU were a Senator that day.

Here's my guess as to what YOU would have done.  You would have grabbed the nearest skirt or pantsuit worn by the nearest woman next to you and you would have used any woman or any little girl as a shield so that you didn't get hurt.

So when you  criticize Ted Cruz and other Senators for leaving the Senate chambers and assembling in another room, it just indicates what a disingenuous and dishonest leftist you are.  
Oh, so you cherry picked a  turn of phrase from a Dallas newspaper and you're now an expert on the book as well as on Cruz in his closet on Jan 6th? LOL, LOL, LOL!!!
A closet is a closet, dude! In contrast, Pelosi and other Democrats were in an actual room in communication with Mitch McConnell and others about calling out the guard and other police agencies and that's on video tape. Cruz chose a closet instead...
