ATLANTA, GA. – Sen. Ted Cruz told a group of conservative activists the first actions he would take should he be elected president during a speech today.
Speaking at the Red State Gathering, Cruz said that there are five policies he would implement on his first day in the Oval Office.
The first action would be to “rescind every illegal executive action taken by Barack Obama,” including his “executive amnesty.”
Next, he would “instruct the Department of Justice to open an investigation into Planned Parenthood” and to prosecute any criminal conduct uncovered.
Then he would instruct the Department of Justice and the Internal Revenue Service to “cease persecuting” individuals seeking to practice their faith in their workplace.
The Little Sisters of the Poor, he said, “would receive a letter in the mail that their case has been dismissed.” He said they would also receive “an invitation to the White House to tell their story to the world.”
Then he would “end the catastrophic Iranian nuclear deal.”
Cruz argued that by lifting economic sanctions on Iran, the Obama administration had become “the leading global financier of radical Islamic terrorism.”
Finally, he would “begin the process to move the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.”
Moving the embassy to Israel’s “eternal capital,” he said, would send “a message to the world that we stand with our allies.”
Cruz also condemned House and Senate leadership for seeking “show votes,” and failing to fight cronyism, corporate welfare and allowing the reauthorization of the Export-Import Bank.
Touche
ICarly said she would make 2 phone calls (and then, I dunno, go home)
bump
Lord, I hope Cruz makes it!
If he’s elected....Will he get a Nobel?
That was a memory that brought tears to my eyes. Remember when we were so proud to be Americans?
Thanks! I was looking for that!
He will have big crowds here in TN too
Good! But why did you ask me that question?
What is insulting?
I don’t even dare to hope. Great agenda. I’ll be in prayer.
Trump is better on the Economy and is conservative enough on the other issues.
That's funny. LOL!
Well...I’ll vote for that Trump fella cuz he’s been a rock-ribbed, steel spined conservative for, gosh, what...4 months?!? And before that, why, golly he hadn’t done a single conservative thing in his entire miserable slimy life...that’s why!
My FRiend, I cannot begin to understand how any freeper could possibly dream of voting for anyone other than Cruz, either. We’ve begged for a staunch conservative candidate for years and yet so many are swayed by the shiny bauble.
Walker is and has proof to back him up.
lol. you will be very disappointed.
“But either way, a lightweight with NOTHING specific to say.”
And you said soooo much.
Amen! I pray that Cruz wins the nomination. I pray that out of respect, Trump decides to support Cruz.
Cruz would be a classy president. No disagreement there.
Who knows if Trump would support Cruz, though as far as Trump’s recently espoused causes are concerned, they agree much more than disagree.
Trump IS tapping into widespread discontent in a way that maybe Cruz is a smidgen too polite to do. Maybe a perspective from entirely outside the Beltway is needed to be a loose enough cannon to do some good in a siege situation.
Equating the one genuine conservative, Constitutional genius in the GOP candidate mix with the illegal alien Muslim Marxist squatting in the Rainbow Hut and doing his da*ndest to destroy our country is not worthy of posting on FRee Republic.
