It would be more entertaining to hear Republicans’ ‘simple’ definition of man.

Senator Ted Cruz, a Republican from Texas, speaks during a news conference about the nomination of Ketanji Brown Jackson, associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court nominee for U.S. President Joe Biden, at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., U.S., on Thursday, April 7, 2022. Jackson was confirmed to the U.S. Supreme Court, making history as the first Black woman to ever join its ranks while leaving the ideological balance on the nation’s highest court unchanged.

,” : It is highly ironic that Sen. Ted Cruz would call Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson “a threat to freedom.” On Jan. 6, Sen. Cruz led the insurrection caucus in the Senate in their attempts to shred American democracy by overturning the will of the American voting public in the 2020 presidential election.

As Republican Rep. Liz Cheney has observed of Cruz, “It was a very dangerous proposal, and, you know, could very easily have put us into territory where we got to the inauguration and there was not a president. And I think that Senator Cruz knew exactly what he was doing. I think that Senator Cruz is somebody who knows what the Constitution calls for, knows what his duties and obligations are, and was willing, frankly, to set that aside.
