    Except that he could. AOC raised a million dollars. Beto and a team of volunteers contacted hundreds of thousands of seniors, just checking in with them or arranging necessities for them. Cruz has resources that he has chosen not to use to help the citizens of Texas.

    Mayor Sylvester Turner told MSNBC that he has not spoken with Gov. Greg Abbott during this week's winter weather crisis.

    "I have not talked to the governor at any time during this crisis," Turner told Stephanie Ruhle during a Friday morning live interview. "I have not talked to the governor, but we’re pushing forward."

    Turner spoke about the current situation in Houston, saying he is most concerned about people impacted by this crisis who were "already on the margins."

    "This the time for us to rally, to be supportive of one another and we're going to stay with it until we come through this crisis," Turner said. "For many families without means, this crisis will continue long past water pressure being restored and the lights being turned on."


    Press conference just now:

    You said in a TV interview you haven’t been in touch with the Governor at all. Have you reached out to him personally? Has the State given you any resources?

    We have the National Guard working at the GRB. TXDOT has been helpful. Between TXDOT and the National Guard, they’ve provided some assistance.

    Have you reached out to the Governor?

    I’ve been very laser focused on dealing with the situation here in the City of Houston. The White House reached out and we had those communications.

    ...

    Appreciate the White House, Secretaries, FEMA for just saying we’re here, we’re available and want to help.

    The reason Ted Cruz is doubling down on being an idiot is because he knows that he won't lose support from the majority of his followers who elected him. Republicans can do anything and get away with it because of their brainwashed supporters.

    If Ted Cruz would have been in Houston the weather would have never gotten his bad!!! He must have incited this weather by using words like fight or possibly maybe winter or cold.... There should be an investigation on the attack by the cold weather, dude must be removed immediately if found guilty. Stupid republicans always destroy everything, and don't even get me started on Abbot....

    Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Dallas. We run this state. We make all the money. Provide all the jobs. And we have no say in our state policy. It's unbelievable and has to stop.

    And we are not going to because of gerrymandered districts. We are stuck in a catch 22.

    Trump really changed Cruz when he called his wife ugly on national television. That man has not ever been the same and for the better, he grew that beard and never looked back.

    It should noted, it appears they also left their poodle dog behind without power. Story goes, they asked security guards to feed the dog but still it's clear, the Cruz family are POS.

    .... Wait, I'd heard this, but I assume at least someone was coming by to feed it and walk it, no? Jesus, what weird people.

    It’s not about if he wants to go, he’s sanctimonious a f was blasting green energy and then jumped to Cancun. What sealed the deal was lying and bringing his daughters into it. Overall just pos human being, the bar is already set low for politicians
