  • The Houston Chronicle wrote that Cruz flattens "complex issues and people into sound bites" in response to an X post he made about Brian Thompson's murder.
The Houston Chronicle, the largest newspaper in Texas, has sharply criticized Senator Ted Cruz for his political tactics, accusing him of using his platform to "vilify, inflame, and divide" rather than to unite or serve the interests of his constituents. The editorial highlights Cruz's tendency to engage in partisan battles, such as his recent comments on the Senate floor about the border situation, where he accused Democrats of wanting to keep the border open for political gain. The Chronicle argues that Cruz's actions, including his involvement in the January 6th events and his focus on cultural and political warfare, have contributed to a toxic political environment. They suggest that his behavior not only fails to address real issues like border security but also exacerbates national discord, urging Texans to consider this when evaluating his leadership.
