No its not. He is in dereliction of duty. His job is to ensure the well being of the citizens he represents. This is the precise type of thing for which you cancel vacation plans because work has to come first. This is litterally a matter of life and death.
It would be like a firefighter bailing on the fire crew during an inferno to go have a beer.
Uh, no. A senator's job is NOT to "ensure the well being" of anyone.
Who told you that bullshit?
And the nose shows.
The is literally what a politician's job is to do. Look after specifically the jurisdiction they represent.
Show me where in any legal description of a senator or his job description does it remotely suggest that they are supposed to "look after" their "jurisdiction".
You don't even understand the fucking words that you're using.
If he were in any part of the executive you may have a case, but the legislative can only work when they're in session.
And this is why the entire Congress continues to not give a shit about any of us.
What did you want Cruz to do? Hand out food packs?
His job is to ensure the well being of the citizens he represents.
No. His job is to represent the will of the people of the state of Texas to our federal government. Civics 101, good sir.
It would be like a firefighter bailing on the fire crew during an inferno to go have a beer.
That's just stupid. Is he a line operator? Nuclear engineer? Wind farm tech? Helicopter de-icing pilot?
If you demand the fed gov't come rescue you every time something bad happens, then you must love the nanny state.
I wonder how much Texas contributes to the federal government in taxes. Maybe some of that should come back when they need something - as if we had a co-op or Union or something where every individual contributed to a fund to provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty. That sounds nice. We should set up something like that.
But since their representatives to the federal government are on vacation, Texas gets a few generators and a tanker truck of diesel fuel. Good luck Texas, thanks for your contributions. Israel, the WHO, and Pakistani transexuals thank you.
Each Texan (including children) pays Washington $1280 / year more in federal taxes vs.federal payments.
And, if you take out Fort Hood and other large military installations, the deficit gets a whole lot worse.
Texas would be just fine as the world's 9th largest economy by GDP without Washington.
This is why the national media wants Texas to look desperate without Washington. Washington needs Texas FAR more than Texas needs Washington.
I don't care because if he was some fucking woke commie it would ndver get called out
Wow. Poal needs an iq test before giving out accounts. Y’all be retarded.
This is the problem right here. People think politicians are worth a damn. This fucking faggot wouldn't even be accomplishing anything except wasting precious resources if he was here. He's better off somewhere else, fuck him.
Why no criticism of Biden? He controls the DOE who would not let them call up Natural Gas driven energy reserves because of climate change. Biden controls FEMA. Where were they? Cruze is a legislator. All he could have done was complain publicly. Unfortunately, the MSM is only interested in making him look bad.
Biden is so far beyond commentary. There aren't words.
I don't know what the MSM is saying, I don't watch the MSM and am so removed from the US that I don't even get heresay outside of here and one or two other sites I go to.
I've never been a big fan of Cruz, but he is the representative in DC and DC is behind some of the problems, notably Biden's EO throttling the power grid and giving China back access. There is more going on than is being portrayed and Cruz probably knows this and if he doesn't he should. I get the feeling he removed himself from the scene. No politician in his right mind takes off on vacation during an emergency in the area they represent. Something stinks.
