The one vote backing moratorium on state AI laws came from Thom Tillis, not Cruz.

      If you killed Ted Cruz on the floor of the Senate, and the trial was in the Senate, nobody would convict you.

        I think this is my favorite GOP quote of all time.

      I like Ted Cruz more than most of my other colleagues like Ted Cruz. And I hate Ted Cruz.

    So what I’m hearing is this is a bill to distract from more important things and to delay.

    Why is this foreign born person still in the US? Didn’t Trump say he wanted to deport naturalized citizens? Deport Ted Rafael Edward Cruz back to Canada! Send him back!

      After all the shit you’re giving us to deal with in Canada this would be the final straw that leads to war. He’s a product of your culture and his power comes from you, he’s your creation.

    I thought the 1 vote had to be the Zodiac killer Ted Cruz, but no:

    The one vote backing moratorium on state AI laws came from Thom Tillis, not Cruz.

    Did he just not get the memo, or is he that paid off?

      So unless my math is wrong there are 100 senators. And if the only yes vote was my own lovely senator Tillis, Cruz voted against his own thing?!?

        Yup, even Cruz voted against it. Reality is truly stranger than fiction.

    Rafael Cruz hates Rafael Cruz so much that he voted against his own amendment.
