Ted Cruz Shows His Hypocrisy Within A One Minute Clip


Thankfully, Roy Moore is now a defeated Alabama Senate candidate as opposed to being the man heading to represent Alabama in Washington and this is mainly due to several women who came forward to claim that Moore had made advances to them while they were under the age of consent, with Moore being in his early thirties. A little while later, allegations surfaced that former Democratic Senator Al Franken had inappropriately groped several women, with around eight women coming forward.

Now for the hypocrisy. Several Democrats decided to use their Twitter platform to try and protest Franken's innocence, with an account even named "Al Franken is innocent", from an extremely pro-Democrat account, we're sure there is no partisanship to see here, none whatsoever.

In steps Ted Cruz, who somehow manages to be more sectarian than the "Democrats are always right by definition, because Democrats are the good guys" group of people. Cruz made an appearance on the Republican safe space that is Fox News and was asked one simple question, "should Roy Moore drop out of the Alabama Senate race because of the sexual assault allegations that have been made against him?" Ted then decides to give his answer in his usual mealy mouthed, disingenuous manner, saying that the "will of the voters" is more important than Roy Moore's sexual misdeeds, and should Alabamians decide to elect Moore, that is what should come before "some Washington politicians" decide to overrule the majority, but remember, Cruz IS your typical Washington politician.

When asked a similar question in relation to the Al Franken allegations, Ted quickly changes his tune now that the politician in question is a Democrat. When Fox News Host, Neil Cavuto, asks whether or not we should apply the same standard across the board and uphold basic principles, but in typical Ted Cruz fashion, he is unable to do so. When the topic of conversation switches to the allegations surrounding Minnesota Senator Al Franken, the majority of Franken's constituents who voted him into the Senate no longer matter, neither do the substance or outcomes of the allegations against Franken, for Ted it's simply a case of "Democrat: Bad, Republican: Good."

Cruz's hypocrisy also takes over the rest of his political beliefs, as seen in debates with Bernie Sanders surrounding the GOP Tax Bill, Ted gave his usual spiel, suggesting that America is one of the most taxed nations, without further elaborating on his point in order to actually tell the truth, as on paper, America may be highly taxed, but when you take into account what the Effective Tax Rate is, you soon realise that the richest within American society simply aren't paying their fair share, but Ted won't tell you that.

Ted doesn't stop there however, with Climate Change also in his firing line, as he suggests that, "Climate science is not science, it's a religion", which is yet another bald-faced lie. Politicians such as Ted Cruz, Donald Trump and Jim Inhofe routinely deny the science surrounding climate change in order to serve their Oil & Gas billionaire donors. When Weather Channel meteorologist Kait Parker's video was used on far-right website Breitbart, in their attempt to twist Parker's words to fit their narrative, this led to her making an excellent response video tearing Breitbart and every climate change denying politician to shreds.


We'll leave it to the beautiful Kait Parker to tell you why you should never listen to a word Ted Cruz says.

MSNBC Host Lawrence O'Donnell Explains How The Democratic Party Treats The Left

MSNBC's "The Last Word" host Lawrence O'Donnell describes his politics as a "practical European socialist", which essentially boils down to being a nordic-style social democrat, usually in favour of a mixed economy with a generous welfare state and has defended his positions on MSNBC news shows that typically frown upon stepping outside the neoliberal bubble. O'Donnell is no progressive hero in the context of american politics, sometimes scolding progressive politicians whenever they mildly criticize the Democratic Party, such as when Bernie Sanders tweeted about having to take on the Democratic establishment as well as Republicans, O'Donnell decided to concern troll Sanders by claiming that the Democratic establishment wouldn't pass Sanders' proposals if he wasn't nice to them. Over the course of the last few months an old video of O'Donnell explaining how to move the Democratic Party further left and how the party treats the p...

About Progressive Political News

Progressive Political News is an independent blog which covers recent political news, mainly focusing on UK and US politics. This may sometimes include news from elsewhere. We have just one writer here currently but are looking to expand and potentially have others contributing to our blog, here's hoping. I'm Joshua Stead and I started Progressive Politics on the 7th of April 2017, as I felt I could provide a worthwhile perspective on the major political goings on and would be able to interest readers with our content. When I began writing the articles I wasn't sure if they were appealing or of substance as it had been my first time trying something like this but the feedback I have gotten has been incredible and it has most definitely enabled me to become a better writer. We would love to become a progressive blog that people will be able to use to form their political opinions on major issues and use it as a source of trustworthy news, much like The Canary or Skwa...

Conservatives Really Think The FBI Will Be Arresting Ilhan Omar Soon

Following on from an older article we wrote about the frankly laughable lies conservatives like to spread about Ilhan Omar, they seem to have truly outdone themselves now.  Previously, Omar's detractors created easily falsifiable claims about her, claims that could be disproven from a ten second google search and a cursory read, but nevertheless they persist.  This time around, the very same people believe that the FBI are going to literally arrest Omar. The reasoning behind this is that Omar supposedly married her brother, which has of course been repeated by every right-wing 'news' outlet and even President Trump himself repeated the claim at a campaign rally. Of course something as simple as a birth certificate proves this isn't even remotely true. This didn't stop Chuck Woolery and his idiotic following tweeting out an article claiming that Omar had been 'nabbed by the FBI' and simply lapping it up without even questioning how ridiculous they sound.  FB...
