Ted Cruz Claims That Executing Innocent People Leads To Lower Crime Rates

Ted Cruz wants to deny funding to all schools and daycare centers that comply with public health guidelines to prevent children from contracting and dying of COVID-19.

Cruz also tried to claim that "skyrocketing crime rates, homicide rates, burglary rates, carjacking rates" should be blamed on The Innocence Project, which uses DNA to free wrongfully-convicted prisoners before they are executed. The judicial nominee to whom Cruz spoke is Nina Morrison, the lead or co-counsel for The Innocence Project in cases that have freed more than 30 innocent people from prison and death row. 

Since Cruz believes that executing innocent people will lead to lower crime rates, I propose, in an effort to stop burglaries, that Ted Cruz be left to rot in prison for the rest of his life for a murder he did not commit.

Fun fact: Ted Cruz and his entire family are vaccinated.

100% of the teachers at his kids’ private school are vaccinated. And students are required to submit their vaccination status to the school. pic.twitter.com/E4XwbHkZXc

Ted Cruz just told a judicial nominee in her Judiciary Committee hearing -- a 20-year lawyer for the Innocence Project -- that "skyrocketing crime rates, homicide rates, burglary rates, carjacking rates" are ALL the direct result of policies she's spent her life advocating.

"Once Again, You Stepped On Your Crank Like A Buffoon"

A bipartisan bill has passed a TN Senate Committee that will require congressional candidates to live in their district 3 years before the election. It would disqualify Trump-endorsed former State Dept spokesperson Morgan Ortagus. https://t.co/MJvDDaXXwM

Cotton’s grace at being called out for lying is predictably nonexistent and also nonsensical. https://t.co/nZwX9ndfnY

No @TomCottonAR you were wrong again. You can spin and dance but once again you stepped on your crank like a buffoon. Do you take a rake to work that you can step on everyday to smack yourself in the face with...because damn...you manage to make a fool of yourself almost daily. https://t.co/h8MQiGTGZ7
