i like ted cruz more than most of my other colleagues like ted cruz, and i hate ted cruz.ement. the first is that senators never give you the slightest hint of who they personally dislike in the senate. no other senator has ever made a statement like that. but al franken was correctly confident that the one senator you could say that about in the history of the senate was ted cruz. it just seems so obvious to him how unlikable ted cruz is. the other extraordinary thing about that statement is that there was no rush of republican senators jumping forward to say, that's not true, i love ted cruz. not one senator was moved to rush to ted cruz's defense on the likability issue when it was raised by al franken. amazing. democratic texas congressman colin allred, who announced today he is running against rafael edward cruz, seems to recognize that texans don't vote for ted cruz because they like him. they vote for him simply because he's a republican. >> when i left the nfl, i thought my days of putting people on the ground were over. then, january 6th happened. i remember heari

again, it has a great contrast from allred to ted cruz.atable in 2018 and i think he's beatable now. people don't like ted cruz. he's not a likable guy and he's cynical and hypocritical. i think the contrast with allred is going to work to allred's advantage in this race. >> it's such a good point, tim, about ground zero for the most unpopular abortion bans is texas with its vigilante feature, as well as the uvalde families and how they've been treated by republican politicians there. >> yeah. and hopefully speaking of democratic politician strength because can you get in trouble on this. beto didn't do as well on his second race. he got a little too far out over his scores. you can focus on abortion and be with that 85%. you talk about a ban on guns, everyone's for that, background checks, everyone's for that. imposing bounties on women who have abortions at six weeks? these deeply unpopular issues. allred, his district is george bush's current district. so i don't know who laura bush is going to vote for. but think about that kind of rep

"the washington post" reported two f

>> texans know we can't count on ted cruz when he's in a crisis. he's only looking out for himself. that's something that even folks who will vote for senator cruz know. he's out for himself. my story is a very different one. i was raised by a single mother in the community that ooum honored to represent in congress. i made it to where i am because of community groups like the ymca and the people i grew up around. i believe in a very different texas. and one not about political expediency, but about helping people. that's what these jobs are supposed to be about. or do your podcast three times a week, which is something senator cruz does. >> can you promise if there's an i.c.e. emergency you won't go on vacation? >> i can promise you that. during that emergency, we were so busy. there was so much to do. that's one of the reasons why it's funny, but also so callous and arrogant. that he could even imagine leaving our state while folks were literally dying and having to burn wood to stay warm. >> it's just amazing. i'm old enough to have worked on re

for example, this morning congresswoman aoc, alexandria ocasio-cortez asked senator ted cruz to explain the history of the democratic party. cruz responded, it was the democratic party that founded the kka. democratic party that wrote jim crow laws. then the democratic party was the one that filibustered the civil rights act. add to this our current president joe biden he was working to stop the integration of public schools. because he didn't want them to become "racial jungles." those were joe biden's word, words, and he partnered with the former grand pubabyrd, biden also gave that eulogy at the former exalted cyclops of the clan, robert kkkbyrd, his mentor as he called him at the time. democrats jar tempting to use race, they do it every two years, every four years as a divisive semi marxist political student, dividing this country, you know, black versus white, old versus young, rich versus poor, divide anyway they can. certain races as perpetual victim its, others as evil oppress sores. here is senator and presidential candidate, well, tim scott, take a look. >> i do think this is

tammy, i will start with you and what senator ted cruz just said about the president. >> you know, ihat if you are saying he can't negotiate on an issue, then he shouldn't be president. but they don't go that far. always been an issue about age. when this really is not about age. it is about capabilities and what you can do. at the same time, it's -- you have staff that can work on these things. the issue with the people that are running the country, i would contend, is not that they're radical children. they might be but our problem is we don't know. because they are anonymous. we don't know who is doing this. we don't know their experience. now susan rice recently left. she was in charge of domestic policy. things like that. >> harris: a head scratcher for many. that wasn't her lane. >> also we see with the condition she is gone and we send 1500 troops to the border. that kind of thing is going on. the bottom line is, i think, you have got the democrats really have not been governing. this is a governing opportunity. this is finally the first time where the republicans have the hou

every week on my podcast, i have a verdict with ted cruz. i walk listeners through the detailed evidence that is growing and here is the tell. i think the by the department of justice is going to end up indicting hunter but if they indict him just for the gun crime porches for a tax crime, they will try to explain it as he is a troubled soul. he has substance abuse issues. look how fair we are and we can now target donald trump which is what the biden department of justice wants to do. that will be the tail. if they focus on individual crimes to hunter and the seal of what makes this a matter of public concern which is the connection to joe biden, the millions hunter made selling access to daddy when he was vice president he made it from burisma the ukrainian natural gas company. he made it from communist china. 10% for the big guys and merrick garland, biden's attorney general does not want to get near the growing and growing evidence of corruption going straight to the president of the united states. >> sean: senator, we are near the end o

amy: i want to go to ted cruz of texas defending clarence thoma'' actions. >> if that is the standardg and traveling and being paid for by others, they guess what? just about every supreme court justice has done so and done so in much greater numbers. justice thomas was appointed in 1991 and since then he has taken 100 nine reported trips, five international trips. justice ruth bader ginsburg was appointed in 1993, 2 years later in the time she was on the court, she took 157 trips, including 28 international trips. mr. payne, you think she was corrupt? >> no. >> nor do i. amy: talk about the significance of this and then, i mean, what kind of ethics code you think should be put in place for the supreme court. art federal judges extremely angry? they have much stricter rules. >> to respond directly to ted cruz, the standard is not that you n get reimbursed when you travel somewhere, if a university was to bring justice ginsburg or justice thomas, for that matter, to give a talk at the university, they are allowed to pay for the justices flight and hotel room. that is just a reimburseme

in a moment busted out texas enter ted cruz for his reaction to the hardline comments this morning. first let's turn to our own peter doocy live in japan. this president inc. he has authority to raise the debt limit on his own, go around congress use the 14th amendment? >> yes, shannon. we heard for the first time the first time here in a change doing things he does it. >> would you be blameless in a difficult situation? >> on the merits on which i'm offered i would be blameless but on the politics of it no one would be blameless. by the way that is one of the things some are contemplating. i actually had, i got to be careful here. i think there are some maga republicans in the house who know the damage it would do to the economy. because i am president and her president is responsible for everything biden would take the blame that's one way to make sure biden is not reelected. >> that soundbite speaks to present by his description of a public at ideas during the debt talks as extreme and unacceptable. which means it is unclear who he thanks should get the credit. or, who should get

there is no more unpopular in the senate than ted cruz. and by the, way more republicans would tell you that then democrats. people think taken innocent dislike to cruise because it saves time. and that is why beto o'rourke came within three points of winning that election six years ago. and i will tell you, i knew republicans in dallas in that election that wanted to vote for beto o'rourke. but beto o'rourke mistakenly and erroneously and problematically nationalized that race, and it became a nationalized democratic hero, which was problematic in texas. but if colin allred runs a texas -- by the way, he lives in dallas. so, those dallas republicans have already seen him and a lot of them like him. so, i think he's going to make it really interesting and uncomfortable for cancun crews. >> that is major analysis. so, basil, what about voter suppression and the impact on this race in texas. you have the texas state legislature moving to do so, doing very nefarious things when it comes to harris county, which is a large democratic county in

now today ted cruz, who has taken on some weight, so to speak, has a challenger, democrat colin allredhe rebuked cruz on january 6th, and that behavior in his announcement. >> when i left the nfl, i thought my days of putting people on the ground were over. then january 6th happened. i remember hearing the glass breaking and the shouts coming closer. i texted my wife, whatever happens, i love you. then i took off my jacket and got ready to take on anyone who came through that door. ted cruz, he cheered on the mob. >> we will not go quietly into the night! >> then hid in a supply closet when they stormed the capitol. but that's ted for you -- all hat, no cattle. >> i guess that's how they do it in texas. that's the politic of it. you can see january 6th living on in the campaign, and we will keep an eye on senator cruz, who's been invited on the show to discuss this and other issues. also, a programming note as we look at the congress. senator rafael warnock is a guest on the reid out tonight. as for on "the beat," well, we have as core winner michelle yeoh on breaking stereotypes, disr

ted cruz doesn't have a lot of sway with many republicans anywhere.nto that senate seat with republican support in his own state. and donald trump, same thing. there is a real -- for the state that was a republican before it became a state, there was a real sense of fierce independence and not having anybody else tell us how we're going to run our business, government and parties. and so i do think that the texas republican party is in its own way a bit inoculated from elements of donald trump being able to tell it what to do. >> interesting. all right. guys. i've been -- i've reported in texas many times. you're right about that. they do have a different sense of being who they are down there in texas. no question about it. very fiercely independent. margaret hoover, john avlon, great to talk to you guys. thank you so much. really appreciate it. >>> still ahead, the white house revealed its first ever national strategy to combat anti-semitism. is it enough, the ceo of the anti-defamation league joins me next to discuss. stay with us, you're live in t

senator ted cruz republican from the state of texas joins me now. come the border is being ignored these days? >> because joe biden and kamala harris and the democrats want an open border. they've made a political decision they look at the 6.6 million illegal immigrants that have come into the country since biden became president and they view everyone of them as a future democrat voter and sadly, they've made a cynical decision they are willing to look the other way to the dead bodies piling up year after year after year, the people who died crossing, the women sexually abused by the human traffickers, the children brutalized by the human traffickers. they're willing to turn a blind eye to 100,000 people who died last year of drug overdoses, two thirds of it from chinese fentanyl across our southern border and as you noted, just in april, 16 individuals on the terror watch list, more than all four years of the trump residency in one month and when biden was asked about the border, he laughed and said it's not as bad as you thought. sixteen terroris

ahead of ted cruz by a couple of points. it was a tightly packed race at that point below.ked about why he does not wait until 2028. >> everyone knows if i'm the nominee, i will beat biden and i will serve two terms. and i will be able to destroy leftism in this country and leave woke ideology on the dustbin of history. at the end of the day, i have shown in florida an ability to win huge swaths of quarters that republicans typically can't win. >> mike: kimberly cole your thoughts. >> remember when all that we did was telling us that no one in the republican party would actually get into this field because they were too scared of donald trump? that is not turning out to be the case and on the issue of a big risk i think one thing that is different from 2016 is that people remember to 16 and exactly how trump divided and conquered. are going to be huge pressure for people to get out and narrowed the field. >> mike: bring to a final thought from you. >> my final thought would be that the republican field they continue to grow for a while but i did before long, you will -- it

santorum was at 4% in june of 2011, 6% in november and won in january and 2016 ted cruz put a strong emphasis on winning the evangelical vote. 5% in may, 10% in october, and 28% and won in february of 2016. so desantis has a similar strategy. we'll see if it works. the last time somebody who led in the early polls was the winner on caucus night was 2000. donald trump won in 2020 with no opposition but in a contested race. >> bill: who does she have in the lead today? >> she has donald trump in the lead and ron desantis in second place. and -- but the point is it's a variable state. first of all, they take their job seriously and why they want you to visit their county and visit the county as many times as possible. and second of all, it is why they make up their mind late. this happened on the democratic side as well. you may remember in 2007 hillary clinton was well ahead of barack obama in the state and it was not until november of the year that obama began to move with a dramatic speech in late november at the jefferson jackson day dinner. having built the network of people in the

really hard during the process of confirmation to meet people across the aisle, and even folks like ted cruzho would have very little in common with barack obama, you know, he and i saw eye to eye on what the commerce department could do for the state of texas. so i really made it my business to say i will work for everyone in congress, regardless of what party, and i answered the phone and tried to help them solve problems regardless of who called me. david: you were secretary of commerce for almost four years. what are you most proud of having achieved? penny: we did a number of things that i'm really proud of. we laid 100,000 miles of broadband. we revamped the patent and trade mark office. we worked with ukraine to help them. they really wanted to turn from east to west and attack and address their corruption. one of the things that i did was, as it relates to -- it became really obvious to me that the semiconductors -- we were going to have a problem in the united states with a shortage of semiconductors. also that we were going to really run into a national security challenge because w

the special guest judge tuning and senator ted cruz.miss it. tsinfi can help you be better prepared for unexpected events. voya. well planned. well invested. well protected. >> welcome back to the special edition of hannity. gop primary field continues to grow. south carolina senator, tim scott has filed with the federal election commission to run for president. this is florida governor, ron desantis, long awaited campaign announcement is expected to come next week. despite the crowded primary race, a new poll still shows trumpet with a commanding lead. desantis 43 points behind. another poll out today asked voters about potential 2024 matchups and showed trump that 7 point lead over biden. when voters were asked about a desantis /biden matchup the 2 tied at 42 percent. here now with reaction pollsters, mark penn, lee carter along with fox news contributor, leo terrel.thank you for joining us tonight. mark, i want to start with you. at some point, it's early, at some point can't you just get so far out ahead that you can walk at home? >

if we remember back in the iowa caucuses back in 2016, ted cruz with the iowa caucus and obviously teduz did not win the republican presidential primary. but, this is a strategy they are looking at and the path. a lot of desantis supporters say the next couple of months and weeks are only going to determine his strength. so if are also some desantis supporters say the troubles of former president trump at your hearing rumblings in the republican party despite the presidents lead in the polls now, his candidacy could be trouble impaired here is bill cassidy republican senator earlier today said he does not think the former president can't win the general election. let's listen. >> the last election cycle we saw in all of the swing states almost all, georgia, pennsylvania, nevada and arizona, that trump -- the candidates for senate that trump endorsed all lost for that means president trump is going to have a hard time in those swing states which means he cannot win a general election. see for that seems to be a growing chorus do you see that in terms of political thinking? quickset cert

we saw them try this, in 2016, ted cruz tried, he's a pro-choice pro abortion ever new york. think it's utterly the wrong way. am i wrong? i'm watching this and i'm like, guys, you are not going to get to donald trump's right on immigration. that's not, you're just not going to. purely tactically, -- >> right, this is not issues. this is gonna be about electability, which is, i think, his final weakness in the republican primary. you can attack his character if you want. you're not gonna beat donald trump if you're not willing to get in the ring and go haymaker to haymaker. you're just not. by the way, if you're able to do that, and then you get an early win, then i think a lot of republicans will say, maybe this is the person. >> again, i sometimes think that these people are to freaked out and scared of their own base and realize the ultimately ditch. i do think that's possible. i don't know. it untested. i do think it's possible. the last thing is just on the indictment. i mean, just the electability, he's created this alternate unit nervous, if you get indicted, it's like

he's basically running a sort of ted cruz campaign.e'll give you a bunch of -- he'll give you policy agreements on everything the religious right wants whereas donald trump is running himself as an object of worship. >> and trump believes in himself. he has gotten high on his own supply, to put it in common parlance. and you get the sense ron desantis is sort of terrified of having to speak from anything beyond the script. i mean even today he's like -- you could almost hear him shuffling the papers talking about the woke mind virus. >> it was so weird when they finally got him on that disastrous twitter spaces the first thing he does was read what sounds like a campaign speech that just sounds so terrible coming out of this tinny, twitter audio. it was so prepared, even in the ultimate safe space he barely seems he can speak off-the-cuff. and when he does speak off-the-cuff i can't imagine what any quasi-normal person listening to this they're talking about coin and there's a half hour talking about twitter, all these niche issues, th

. >> reporter: republican senator ted cruz's is a travesty is unfolding and is blaming the biden administration. >> this is an invasion and they want the numbers to go up. >> reporter: the city of el paso is under a state of emergency. lease presence has been beefed up and residents are being told to remain vigilant. near the border in el paso, 400 asylum-seekers are camped out. they were given a choice. return to mexico or board buses to processing centers. >> we are going to prevent any further migrants from joining the group that is already here. >> reporter: a federal judge has temporarily blocked a policy of releasing some migrants without notices to appear in court. that was an effort to ease crowding in border patrol facilities. the biden administration is expected to seek an emergency stay on the ruling. >> the border patrol chief says they are overcapacity in several of their holding facilities. this is a look at one of them in el paso. they are expanding it to accommodate the increase of migrant arrivals. >> some migrants could end up in parts of the bay area. local relief groups are

. >> ted cruz won it last time. rick santorum beat romney.ut a conservative candidate and in santorum's case, a conservative candidate who organized and there's interesting reporting today in the "washington post" because there's a lot of cruz people around. they are going to do the 99 counties and try to organize it again. if you have a formidable front runner, one way to weaken him, to beat them in the first state. >> clearly, desantis. s to draw first blood because it would be a big sign of strength if he's able to do that. that doesn't mean he'll go on to win the nomination. to me, it comes down to, yes, on certain policy aspects, he may try to differentiate himself, but if he can't convince voters that he's the better general election candidate, then i'm not sure that he can take down trump. >> to add in chris christie, former friend of donald trump, who gnow says trump must be stopped, will announce his candidacy tuesday in new hampshire. he does not fit the iowa model. what is the significance of that? new hampshire is open. contest nu

in a moment, we'll sit down with ted cruz for his reaction to the president's hard line comments. let's turn to peter doocey. does the president think he has authority to raise the debt limit, use the 14th amendment? >> yes, shannon we heard this evening here in hiroshima, he thinks he does. would you be blameless in a default situation? is. >> president biden: on the patriots based on what i have offered i would be blameless. on the politics of it no one will be blameless. by the way, that's one of the things that some are contemplating. i actually had -- well i gotta be careful here. i think there are some maga republicans in the house who know the damage that it would do to the economy and because i am president, a president's responsible for everything, biden would take the blame and that's one way to make sure biden is not re-elected. >> so, that sound bite speaks to president biden's debt talks as extreme and unacceptable which means it's unclear who he thinks who should get the credit or the -- who should get credit for a deal or a default. we also do have his explanation a
