Some people have a reputation of ruining everything they touch.

One of those people is Texas Senator Rafael "Ted" Cruz.

So what has Ted touched now?

Baby Yoda.

Not content with ruining beards, Cruz decided it was time to take down the baby Yoda meme on social media.

A media frenzy started over the creature featured in the Disney+ streaming service's new show The Mandalorian. After people speculated what could possibly kill the enthusiasm, Nitz Bluv—an NBA writer for The Athletic—predicted only one force in the galaxy could defeat baby Yoda's cuteness:

Texas Republican Senator Ted "Dork Side" Cruz.

Well, technically she said "one corny politician," but who's more corny than this?

Her tweet though...

...prompted this from Duncan Smith who writes about the Detroit Pistons for Forbes...

...which inevitably caused this.

Poor baby Yoda.

We hardly knew you.

People had "reactions" on Twitter.

Like STRONG reactions.





But could the power of baby Yoda's cuteness defeat the Dark Lord of the Sith—or rather Senator Cruz?

Well, the tweet by Cruz did garner over 45,000 likes and 8,000 retweets.

So, who knows?

Maybe baby Yoda can turn Cruz away from the Dark Side like Luke Skywalker did for Darth Vader.

Then again...

Senator Mark Kelly, who flew combat missions during the Gulf War in the U.S. Navy before being selected as a NASA Space Shuttle pilot, blasted MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, for his part in the latest Trump administration attempt to lash out at their political rivals.

Hegseth previously demanded the Navy provide punishment recommendations to the Pentagon's Office of General Counsel for the retired Captain, who flew 39 combat missions during the Gulf War before going to space four times for NASA.

Tucker Carlson Dragged After Offering Truly Bonkers Theory For Why Trump Captured Nicolás Maduro

Former Fox News host turned far-right podcaster Tucker Carlson raised eyebrows after he claimed that President Donald Trump captured Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro in order to bring same-sex marriage to the people of a country now in a dangerous state of flux after the U.S. invaded.

Weirdly, he claimed “pro-gay forces” were secretly driving regime change, pointing to Nobel Peace Prize recipient and opposition leader María Corina Machado's support for same-sex marriage. He suggested this is proof that "globo homo," his term for progressive liberal elites, are hard at work.

When two people get married, there's an assumption that others tend to make: that the couple will wear their wedding rings no matter what, and if they don't, it's a sign of a troubled marriage and a lack of commitment.

But there are lots of reasons not to wear wedding rings full-time, from cleanliness to safety to health concerns.
