Sen. Ted Cruz called on people to stop listening to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and suggested her politics are moving leftward.

Greene’s criticism of her fellow Republicans has escalated in recent days amid the government shutdown. https://trib.al/N6Tq4QZ

Ted Crud knows which side of the palace glass he wants to be on. Even if it’s the wrong side of history.

Still don't trust her

"The Republican Party has basically restyled itself to be a party for less-educated people and more blue-collar voters than they have ever been, historically speaking. 

And the reality is, when you create a party that has that base, but then the people who run it are subservient to oligarchs, there’s going to be a lot of tension between those two things. 

Marjorie Taylor Greene is one of the very few people to actually notice that the Republican Party actively harms its own voters." https://trib.al/ucpk33L

i don't either. i am thinking this is part of her toying around with being more moderate because she gets more favorable press than when she acts batshit crazy. moderating has gotten her more positive attention from democratic voters, and as dumb as she has acted over the years, she is showing signs of gop self awareness that most of them are not, so i give her credit for that.

i did hear she is going to be going on the view. or is at least attempting to appear on the view.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is slated to appear on ABC's "The View" next week.

The firebrand Republican lawmaker is known for her loyalty to President Trump and frequent media appearances, which she often uses to promote the president’s agenda and attack Democrats, media figures, and prominent liberals. https://trib.al/kuCBXd7

On Saturday, November 1, the real pain of the shutdown starts for people. Donald Trump and the Republicans have screamed: We. Don’t. Care. https://trib.al/me2C1vF

20 million people will start learning in specific terms how much their health care premiums are going to increase.

42 million people will lose access to the nutritional assistance program, SNAP, that allows low-income Americans to buy food for their families, at an average of around $175 a month.

It will happen despite the presence of a $6 billion reserve fund to cover food stamp emergencies.

November 1 will be the 32nd day of the current government shutdown (the longest was 35 days, during Donald Trump’s first term). 

It marks 51 days since the House of Representatives, under Speaker Mike Johnson, has cast a vote. 

And it will be 38 days since the election of Arizona Democrat Adelita Grijalva to her U.S. House seat without her yet being sworn in.

i saw two judges ruled that the trump administration must continue to fund snap during the shutdown.

he will probably find away around it. the cruelty to his own supporters is astounding.
