Ted Cruz Saved American Democracy From The Democrats

We should all give a big thanks to Sen. Ted Cruz for being awake and alert at 3:30 a.m. Wednesday morning and saving American democracy.

After 15 mind-numbing hours of amendment votes on the Democrats’ $3.2 TRILLION spending orgy bill, Senate “Majority” Leader Chuck Schumer attempted to sneak the “For The People” Act (aka, the “Legalize Vote Fraud” Act) into the mix, in hopes that sleep-deprived Republicans wouldn’t notice and would fail to object, thereby approving it by unanimous consent. But Cruz rose and objected repeatedly, stopping Schumer in his tracks.

Cruz called the bill a “federal takeover of elections” and a “massive power grab by Democrats” that would do the opposite of its title by ensuring that the people can’t vote politicians out of office. He elaborated that it would “strike down virtually every reasonable voter integrity law in the country, including voter ID laws supported by the overwhelming majority of this country, including prohibitions on ballot harvesting, again widely supported by people in this country. It would mandate that felons be allowed to vote, and it would automatically register millions of illegal aliens to vote. It would profoundly undermine democracy in this country…”

Yes, but “for the people!”

The defeated Schumer hilariously grumbled, “Let there be no mistake about what is going on here. We have reached a point in this chamber where Republicans appear to oppose any measure — any measure, no matter how common sense — to protect voting rights and strengthen our democracy.”

That’s funny, because if you replaced the word “Republicans” with “Democrats,” that would be a perfect description of what Democrats are trying to do all over the nation to block common sense election integrity measures and to destroy them completely with the “Legalize Vote Fraud” Act.

    Kudos to Cruz. While I do support term limits, this is one of the reasons I do not. Cruz is so adept at protecting the constitution and WE the People.

    Glad you posted this. Otherwise, I might never have heard about it. Sounds like the Democrats are trying really hard to sneak their liberal Christmas wish list in, but they're always crafty like that. Great job Governor Huckabee. Thanks.

    Thank goodness for People like Cruz, Trump, Huckabee's, Josh Hawley, Ron DeSantis and most of the time Rand Paul for trying to save america, We need help. We need to not stand still for what the dems are doing and waiting until 2022 election will be too late. Why are we putting up with it? Where is the outrage?

    Thank you, Senator Cruz, for being alert and responding well to this bill that Schumer and the Democrats tried to sneak in! I, for one, appreciate your attention to and reaction to what the Democrats are trying to pull off and help the destruction of our Government. There are only a few Senators like you and I hope it is enough to keep the Democrats from destroying the America we grew up in! Too many wonderful men and women have fought and died to protect our freedom for our land to be changed into an unacceptable form of government where we would lose our freedoms! Thank you, Mike Huckabee, for reporting on this to let those of us who care about America know that there are some who are fighting for us.
