By name, Rafael Edward Cruz, is an American politician who was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2012 and began his first term representing Texas in 2013.
Throughout his life, Ted Cruz has proven to be a passionate and effective fighter for limited government, economic growth, and the Constitution.
His father, Rafael Bienvenido Cruz, was born in Cuba but fled to the United States in 1957 after being imprisoned by the Fulgencio Batista regime. Ted’s mother, Eleanor Elizabeth Wilson, was a native of Delaware. When he was born in 1970, the family was living in Alberta, Canada, where his parents worked in the oil industry. Because he was born to an American mother in Canada, Cruz became a dual U.S.–Canadian citizen.
In the U.S. Senate, Ted has led the fight to repeal Obamacare, to secure the border, and to confirm Justice Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court. He has also led the fight to defend life, marriage, the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, and our entire Bill of Rights. And most importantly, he’s kept his promise to speak the truth and do what he said he’d do.
Ted has proven to be the exact type of courageous conservative we need in the U.S. Senate to restore economic growth, defend our Constitution, and protect the values we all hold dear.

Sen. Cruz is working with federal, state, and local officials and business and community leaders to curb the spread of the coronavirus, protect public health, and take steps to help Texans return to work and get the economy moving again.
Watching this coronavirus thing unfold reminded me of this clip in Men In Black where the question is whether or not to tell people something since “they are smart.” The retort is that a person is smart. People on the other hand are stupid, panicky, etc. If you ever doubted this, I set before you the coronavirus.
From everything we know so far, the coronavirus is not that big of a deal. Or, I should say, COVID-19, because in fact there are many other varieties of the coronavirus; so, strictly speaking, its a coronavirus, not the coronavirus. But that nuance … continue reading...
These are the three guiding principles that underlie most of the posts on this blog, and Anthony's purpose in life:
1. Secure eternal life for himself and his loved ones through Jesus Christ.
2. Get as many other people as he can to accept Jesus as their Lord and savior so that they, too, may have eternal life.
3. Prevent the next holocaust-level event from occurring and stop the ones that are presently on-going. He does not share the optimism of some that humanity has 'progressed' enough to avoid it...
In light of these stakes, most other things fall into the category of "don't sweat the small stuff."
Commentary Delay
Because I believe that people are being manipulated into regularly scheduled outrages, and because I am not a tool so easily manipulated, I will generally abstain from opining on ‘national conversations’ until I am good and ready to do so. Obviously, I reserve the right comment immediately as I see fit. If you are a Christian–don’t be a tool.
