Democratic Representative Ruben Gallego launched a stream of unhinged, profanity-laced rants towards Senator Ted Cruz, accusing him of being a “baby killer” following the tragic shooting at a Texas elementary school.
According to the latest information, Uvalde High School student Salvador Ramos is accused of murdering 22 people, including 19 children and 3 adults.
Gallego’s misplaced anger began when CNN congressional correspondent Manu Raju reported on comments made by Senator Cruz following news of the shooting.
Cruz (R-TX) correctly predicted Democrats would try to politicize the tragedy.
“Inevitably when there’s a murderer of this kind, you see politicians try to politicize it, you see Democrats and a lot of folks in the media whose immediate solution is to try to restrict the constitutional rights of law-abiding citizens,” he said.

Representative Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) responded to Ted Cruz’s comments by proving him right and peppering in language and absurd accusations that would make Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez proud.
Bear in mind this is a sitting United States Congressman having this kind of reaction.
“F*** you [Senator Ted Cruz] you care about a fetus but you will let our children get slaughtered. Just get your a** to Cancun,” he tweeted. “You are useless.”
Fuck you @tedcruz you care about a fetus but you will let our children get slaughtered. Just get your ass to Cancun. You are useless. https://t.co/0tArGHosep

In case you thought it was a momentary lapse of reason, it wasn’t.
“Just to be clear f*** you [Senator Ted Cruz] you f***ing baby killer,” he wrote.
Just to be clear fuck you @tedcruz you fucking baby killer.

A few points to be made here:
- I’m not sure what makes Cruz a ‘baby killer’ in the eyes of Gallego as the Republican senator had nothing to do with the shooting. One can only assume it’s the faux logic liberals use in drawing a straight line from a defense of the Second Amendment to somebody using a gun.
- Gallego has been endorsed by NARAL Pro-Choice America due to his fight to protect abortion.
- This is a more mentally unstable rant than AOC when she accused Cruz of attempted murder.

If you’re wondering, no, Ruben Gallego never came back to his senses following his profane outburst directed at Ted Cruz.
He gave the National Rifle Association a “f*** you” for good measure.
Fuck you @NRA

When Representative Darrell Issa (R-CA) offered prayers, the attention-seeking Gallego chimed in with his own deep thoughts.
“F*** your prayers,” he responded. “They haven’t worked for the last 20 mass shootings how about passing laws that will stop these killings.”
Fuck your prayers. They haven’t worked for the last 20 mass shootings how about passing laws that will stop these killings. https://t.co/Wz432YCMPe

When a follower simply suggested, “I dont believe an elected official should be acting like this,” Gallego replied with a middle-finger emoji. You know, because he’s a super-edgy fella who is to be taken very seriously.

Gallego made some noise back in 2018 when he issued a threat to ICE agents involved in “illegal” deportations saying they “will not be safe” once then-President Donald Trump is out of office.
If you are a US government official and you are deporting Americans be warned. When the worm turns you will not be safe because you were just following orders. You do not have to take part in illegal acts ordered by this President’s administration. https://t.co/BLq48HRkbH

In April of 2021, he falsely claimed House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and the Republicans were lying about reports that individuals on the terror watchlist were trying to exploit the weak southern border under the Biden administration.
Weird as the Chairman of the subcommittee on Intelligence and Special Operations and a border state member of Congress haven’t heard anything about this. Gonna ask for a briefing. Pretty sure he is either wrong or lying. https://t.co/retrzeUPxV

A month later two Yemeni men on the FBI terror watchlist were arrested trying to cross illegally into California.
This past April it was reported that 42 people on the terror watchlist had been arrested crossing the border.
