https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9277097/Leaked-texts-contradict-Ted-Cruzs-claim-indulging-daughters-Mexico-trip.htmlTed Cruz's wife Heidi planned family Cancun trip to escape 'FREEZING' Houston: Leaked texts contradict senator's claim he was indulging his daughters with vacation as he returns to find protesters outside his home
Texts sent by Heidi Cruz were published on Thursday showing her complaining about her 'FREEZING' home
Ted Cruz's wife shared the family's flight details with friends and urged them to join them for the four nights
The Texas senator has said his daughters begged him to take them out of the cold on Wednesday
His wife's texts seem to suggest that it was she, rather than the children, determined to escape
--------------
'Anyone can or want to leave for the week? she asked her friends, in text messages obtained by American Bridge.
'We may go to Cancun there is a direct flight at 445pm and hotels w capacity.'
We lost power for two days, we lost power, we had no heat.
We were huddled around the fireplace behind me because it was the only heat in the house.
After a couple of days, with it being really cold and the teens outside, my girls said school's been cancelled, can we take a trip and go somewhere warm.

Just like most of the world, their 'friends' dislike them enough to leak their texts.

Or has that awareness just flown over her head? Who ARE these people?

This man foments violence and recently participated in an insurrection.

need to learn how to read an audience. They are so confident they can get away with insurrections, ignoring mass virus deaths, ignoring climate change. They didn't think a thing about flying down to Cancun.
Not a thing, because in their shriveled up black hearts, they didn't do anything wrong.
