The Twitter universe exploded this afternoon with feigned outrage from the progressive personalities who dominate the social media outlet, when Ted Cruz went to Cancun during the middle of an emergency in Texas.
Indeed, Cruz failed to take into account the “optics” of leaving Texas during the power outages, water service outages, dozens of deaths, and a situation which some are considering a humanitarian crisis. However in reality as a Senator there is very little Cruz can do about the situation.
Blatantly biased Associated Press pushed the story initially, and within a few hours Cuomo’s name vanished from the headlines and the nursing home scandal took a backseat.
“The left – and some grifters on the right – are consumed by partisan anger and rage,” his office said in a written statement. “Sen. Cruz will continue to work for 29 million Texans in the Senate.”
Cruz, released a press statement, explaining that he was accompanying his daughters to Mexico, and was heading back. Still, the false outrage coming from Twitter progressives, who just spent the last day celebrating the death of Rush Limbaugh is disingenuine nonsense.
The rank and file social media Democrats, progressives, and SJW brigade seemed far less concerned with the Cuomo nursing home scandal. On Twitter, Cruz has been the top trending topic, while Cuomo has vanished.
Popular, YouTube political analyst and journalist Tim Pool, expertly broke down the false outrage, and it’s worth a listen. Pool, who used to work for Vice, is one of the most popular independent journalists online. His politics are hard to classify, in 2017 Pool supported Bernie Sanders, while in 2020 he was firmly behind Trump. Pool’s kind of analysis, goes beyond cheerleading for the Democrat or Republican party and this is exactly the kind of person tech giants are coming after. One must wonder how long before Tim Pool is also canceled from social media?
