zodiacPAC-Reminding you why Ted Cruz and his cronies are bad for Texas and America.

This could be amusing https://www.zodiacpac.com/


zodiacPAC is a political action committee founded by young Houstonians, out of a belief that there are lots of Texans who don't feel represented by the likes of Ted Cruz. Many of the most conservative and senior leaders in Congress come from our great state; the November 2018 election is an important opportunity to challenge conservative Republicans' support for Donald Trump's racist, sexist, elitist agenda. In this exhausting political climate, we're keeping the pressure on Ted and his cronies.

ZODIACPAC WILL GO AFTER CRUZ: Democrats appear to have formed a new super PAC to attack Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), based on the meme that Cruz is the Zodiac killer. The website of the super PAC, zodiacPAC, states clearly that Cruz is not the killer. “That would be ridiculous,” the site says. “The Zodiac Killer was a brutal murderer in the 1960s, before Ted Cruz was born. The zodiac meme is like a political cartoon for the digital age. It's outlandish, but it highlights Ted Cruz's fundamental meanness — someone who cares more about his own ambition and fame than the people of Texas.”

— The website describes the super PAC, which registered on Wednesday with the FEC, as “a political action committee founded by young Houstonians, out of a belief that there are lots of Texans who don't feel represented by the likes of Ted Cruz. Many of the most conservative and senior leaders in Congress come from our great state; the November 2018 election is an important opportunity to challenge conservative Republicans' support for Donald Trump's racist, sexist, elitist agenda.” While it’s hard to tell whether there’s real money behind a super PAC when it first registers, its slick website and use of an established Democratic compliance firm suggest it could raise enough to be a thorn in Cruz’s side. The super PAC did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
