Ted Cruz Gets Brutal Reminder After Sharing Racist Migrants Conspiracy
Senator Ted Cruz faced backlash after sharing a meme on X (formerly Twitter) about a conspiracy theory claiming Haitian immigrants eat house cats. Many users were quick to remind him of his own infamous 2021 Cancún trip during a Texas snowstorm, when he left his family’s dog, Snowflake, in a cold house while millions of Texans were without power.
Cruz, whose father was an immigrant who sought asylum in the U.S., was criticized for the hypocritical and xenophobic nature of his post. With his lead over Democratic challenger Colin Allred shrinking, critics urged him to focus on his Senate duties instead of promoting conspiracy theories and engaging in political theatrics. His continued loyalty to Donald Trump, who once insulted his wife and father, added to the controversy.
