“I think the American people ought to be saying to Elon, ‘Thank you, thank you, thank you!’” the Texas Senator said on Fox News.
Ted Cruz used a Fox News interview to act as a human shield for Elon Musk, demanding Americans get down and kiss the billionaire’s feet for his DOGE work.
Musk has called time on his stint at the Trump administration, with his 130-day “special government employee” status elapsing on May 30. His time at Trump’s side was tumultuous, with Tesla caught up in the pushback against his cost-cutting DOGE.
Cruz appears shocked by the backlash, telling Fox News’s Sean Hannity on Wednesday evening that Americans should be expressing deep gratitude to Musk and chanting “Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

I’d be happy to start being more nasty to Ted Cruz instead.
Instead? Nah, “as well” ;)
why use his preferred name?
his name is Raphael Cruz.
Technically his name is Rafael Edward Cruz and it’s not that uncommon for public figures to go by their middle name or a diminutive thereof🤷
That being said, fuck Cruz with a rusty rail spike.
Ted’s a diminutive of any of those? I thought it was almost exclusively for Theodore.
It’s of Theodore AND Edward
Other examples of famous Tedwards include
- Ted Danson
- Ted Kennedy
- Ted Koppel
- Ted Turner
If they don’t respect the preferred names of trans people, then they shouldn’t be afforded the same respect in return.
I don’t think people are nasty enough to him. Until he’s a fucking hermit, too ashamed to show his face in public again because he knows everyone despises him, we need to be nastier.
Fuck you, Elon
And fuck you too, Ted
What a wanker!
Well, I’m not American, so I’m going to keep calling him a nazi piece of shit
And if would be doing so even if I was unfortunate enough to be American
Non-fisting-enthusiast American here. I concur.
Calling him something that he is not would be unfair. That’s why calling him nazi piece of shit it’s ok.
Fled Cruz is about the only person more deserving of nastiness.
no
Will no one think of the billionaires?
When I think of who belongs in jail.
I think of the billionaires.
Come on now, we don’t need to sink to their level
don’t throw our trash into the ocean! Compost. then eat the veggies. It’s the only environmentally friendly thing to do.
When a billionaire reaches the seafloor it’s referred to as a billionairefall and it’s actually an important aquatic ecosystem. A single billionaire can feed dozens of different species including fish, crabs and some marine worms that only feed on vile billionaire carcasses.
Unfortunately these species are struggling right now because we aren’t throwing enough billionaires into the ocean. So please, do it for the worms.
Eat the rich!
Don’t eat junkfood…
I’m telling ya, compost and eat the veggies.
The grind into a nice paste, spread it on crackers. I like Triscuits
The environmental cost of improperly disposing of billionaires is far-and-away offset by the very lack of the billionaire.
I think we can eat that cost and enjoy the benefits.While perhaps inconsequential to the benefit accrued by removing the billionaire…
Disposal methods aren’t weighted against that, they’ve already been removed. So we’re selecting between various disposal methods, and really, we have no reason to not be green about it.
Yes, i just thought we were speaking in the context of a certain submersible.
Aka “The Billionaire Waste Footprint”
One might argue that the red mist they introduced to the ocean helped to support the local biosphere, and since every piece of the “sub” that was able to be located was recovered, that the whole event was a net gain for that area of the sea.
Poor people get all the breaks.
No
The sleazy used car sales man stands up for a car company CEO.
This checks out
Not saying where I do or don’t live but I’ll be nasty to Nazis thank you very much
Ticking the “nasty to elon musk” dial up every time I hear this.
Elon musk is a shitty person with a shitty agenda.
So, no.
Smd cry bullies
Smd? Shaking my dick?
