Democratic Rep Colin Allred dispensed a lot of one-liners Tuesday while questioningTexas Sen Ted Cruz, calling his podcast “angertainment” and labeling Cruz’s anti-trans messaging a “hail Mary” to sidetrack from his undesirable point of views on abortion.
In one especially remarkable exchange, Allred informed citizens that his opponent prefer to concentrate on transgender professional athletes due to the fact that he “wants you thinking about kids in bathrooms so you’re not thinking about women in hospitals.”
Allred, standing for Texas’ 32nd legislative area because 2019, pursued Cruz for sustaining Roe v. Wade being reversed, and highlighted the effects of that result for Texans.
“You should look into the camera and speak to Kate Cox, who’s watching right now, and explain to her why you said that this law that you said is perfectly reasonable—why she was forced to leave her two children behind and flee our state to get care that she needed,” he informed Cruz, referencing the Texas female that needed to sue her state to obstruct its abortion legislations after the unborn child she was bring created a deadly problem. Cox inevitably needed to look for treatment somewhere else after the Texas Supreme Court ruled versus her.

“Or,” Allred proceeded, “look into the camera and talk to Amanda Zurawski, who’s watching right now, and explain to her why it’s perfectly reasonable that, because she had a complication in her pregnancy and was denied care so long, that she may never be able to have children of her own. Or to the 26,000 Texas women who’ve been forced to give birth to their rapist’s child under this law that you called ‘perfectly reasonable.’”
Both Cox and Zurawski have actually stated they sustain Vice President Kamala Harris’ project.
Later, the subject changed to transgender civil liberties, and exactly how Cruz has actually implicated Allred of sustaining actions that might result in children playing in ladies’ sporting activities. Allred, a previous NFL linebacker, responded that Cruz’s strike was a “hail Mary.”
“I’m a dad. I’m a Christian. Of course I don’t support these ridiculous things that he’s talking about,” Allred stated. “But he wants you thinking about kids in bathrooms so you’re not thinking about women in hospitals. Because it’s indefensible that we have Texas women being turned away from hospitals, bleeding out in cars, in waiting rooms, being found by their husbands.”

Allred stated it was “laughable” that Cruz is calling himself “the protector of women and girls” due to the fact that he “thinks it’s perfectly reasonable that if a girl is raped by a relative of hers, a victim of incest, that she should be forced to carry that child to term and give birth to it.”
In enhancement to calling out Cruz, that likes to promote his podcast, for pitching “angertainment,” Allred got on his rival’s unclear solution to the inquiry of whether he would certainly sustain excuses forJan 6 rioters. Cruz rather pointed out the unassociated “antifa and Black Lives Matter riots that burned cities across the country.”
Allred, advising customers that Cruz challenged accrediting the 2020 political election, fired back: “You’re a threat to democracy.”
