Following his disastrously unpopular trip to Cancun in the midst of his state's winter storm crisis, Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas has been especially obvious in his attempts to unite his Republican base against the left.

After Dr. Seuss enterprises chose to stop publishing four of the author's works due to racially insensitive content, many Republicans, such as Ainsley Earhardt and Donald Trump Jr., have been claiming that liberals are cancelling Dr. Seuss.


Liberal politicians had nothing to do with the private company's choice to take six of Seuss's works out of print, but Ted Cruz took things a step further online, claiming Joe Biden himself was responsible for the "ban" on Dr. Seuss.

Ted Cruz, apparently not content with his lie about Joe Biden "banning" Dr. Seuss, then tried to use his manufactured controversy to increase his own book sales.

Twitter wasn't fooled by Cruz's grievance-baiting.

Dr. Seuss has not been "cancelled" and Joe Biden had nothing to do with the situation.

Many other people pointed out how strange it was Cruz was holding up a best-seller list to showcase books that were supposedly banned.

Cruz has had a few run-ins with book-related controversies in the past.


The last couple of months have been incredibly harmful to Cruz's reputation.



Cruz and many other Republicans want their base to think liberals are coming for their Dr. Seuss.



As Democrats pass important legislation through the House of Representatives, Republicans whine about Dr. Seuss supposedly being under attack.


President Joe Biden wisely hasn't responded to Cruz's accusations of "canceling" Dr. Seuss...likely because he had nothing to do with it.

The federal government shut down early Wednesday after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending. While Senate Democrats are in the minority, they hold enough seats to filibuster and are insisting that Republicans agree to extend federal subsidies for people insured under the Affordable Care Act.

GOP Lawmaker Sparks Outrage After Calling For Dem Rep. To Be Executed For Urging People To Protest Trump

On Wednesday, September 25, an Arizona MAGA Republican state Representative publicly called for the execution of Washington Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal because she urged anyone displeased with MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's job performance to exercise their First Amendment right to free speech and to protest.

Apparently, urging citizens to make their voices heard was a step too far for Arizona state GOP Representative John Gillette, who responded to a clip edited out of a longer video by right-wing account The Patriot Oasis (TPO). A quick scan through Gillette's X account media posts will reveal his political leanings.

Liberal TikToker Mortified After Discovering That Her Therapist Is Hardcore MAGA

There used to be a time where politics did not have to come into every room or be a part of every conversation. But in a world with President Trump and MAGA, it's not as simple as being Red, Blue, or Green anymore.

Now, the sociopolitical climate is dangerous for many people and still very stress-inducing for others. It's important to surround ourselves with people who make us feel safe and seen—and unfortunately, that might mean cutting out people who have "different beliefs" than we do.
