It looks like Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) is Texas Tech's bad luck charm.

Cruz tweeted a selfie yesterday from the NCAA championship game at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis and observed that Texas Tech held a 1-point lead with 35 seconds left in regulation.

"35 Seconds. ONE Point LEAD. GO RED RAIDERS!!! #1 Defense," he wrote.

But Cruz spoke too soon, and Texas Tech fans claimed he jinxed the game after the team was defeated in an 85-77 overtime victory by Virginia.

Cruz didn't address the roasting, but he did praise Texas Tech in a tweet afterward.

"A heartbreaking loss, but an AMAZING game," he wrote.

This isn't the first time Cruz has made (rather hilarious headlines) for being a jinx.

Last year, his #ClutchCity tweet during Game 7 of the Warriors/Rockets series last year was also roasted.

Fans said the tweet was the reason for Houston missing 27 straight attempts from 3-point range in defeat.

Poor Senator Cruz. He just can't win.

Dem Senator Drops F-Bomb In Fiery Video After Trump Calls For Congressional Democrats To Be Hanged

Connecticut Democratic Senator Chris Murphy said "maybe it's time to pick a f**king side" in response to President Donald Trump's call for a group of congressional Democrats who are military veterans to be executed after they reminded U.S. troops that they must disobey unlawful orders.

Senators Elissa Slotkin (Michigan) and Mark Kelly (Arizona) joined Representatives Chris Deluzio and Chrissy Houlahan (Pennsylvania), Maggie Goodlander (New Hampshire), and Jason Crow (Colorado), all of whom are veterans. In a video message, they noted that the Trump administration is "pitting our uniformed military and intelligence community professionals against American citizens."

People With Astigmatism Are Flabbergasted After Realizing What Christmas Lights Look Like To Other People

Sometimes you don't know what you don't know until someone shows it to you in a TikTok video.

For instance, a person might not know about the possibility of having an astigmatism, which is an ocular condition that causes blurriness in vision, and the blurriness worsens with bright, contrasting lights. Blurring taillights at night, especially when it's raining, is a common occurrence among those with astigmatism.
