"Our Great 1st Amendment, our Great 2nd Amendment, our right to worship God & so much more comes down to one vote on the Court," Trump tweeted."@TedCruz has a fantastic new book, 'One Vote Away', out today!"

If this payment was for books, the FEC interpretation says that the personal use prohibition would not apply to spending from a leadership PAC. However, Jeff Roe, a political consultant and Cruz advisor, called the claim that Cruz is collecting book royalties through Reagan Investments"categorically false" and said the."It makes up for its lack of facts with an energetic array of conspiracy theories strung together by a tortured link analysis."

According to Open Corporates, Reagan Investments is a limited liability company in Missouri that was incorporated on January 23, 2020, by attorney James C. Thomas III. Reagan Investments is registered in Kansas City, but the expense form from the PAC gives an Austin, Texas, address.

does HE know? does he CARE? an isolation/ignorance that?-- serves him. Why 'check' it (if you are Ted Cruz). OR: maybe he has, and feels vindicated. Or, ready to 'defend' it. I don't know.

The real question: How often does Ted need to shed his carapace?

He realized his books are on the remainder tables.

Not one Republican serving today in congress is there to serve and protect us and their recent actions proved it

He’s violating trees by actually having a book. A true waste of natural resources.

Lmao Standard practice
