Boner Candidate #1: TED CRUZ IS AN ASSHAT.

Sen. Ted Cruz (C) (R-TX), wearing a face mask that reads “Come and Take It”, arrives to the inauguration of U.S. President-elect Joe Biden on the West Front of the U.S. Capitol on January 20, 2021 in Washington, DC. During today’s inauguration ceremony Joe Biden becomes the 46th president of the United States. Sen. Ted Cruz did wear a mask during the inauguration of President Joe Biden, and it bore a familiar phrase. The Texas senator wore a mask displaying the imagery of the “Come and Take It” flag, which was used during the Texas Revolution in the Battle of Gonzales. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, seconds the objection to Arizona’s Electoral College certification from the 2020 presidential election as a joint session of the House and Senate convenes to confirm the Electoral College votes cast in November’s election, at the Capitol in Washington, Wednesday, Jan. 6, 2021.

On the hook for a $2,488 judgment because of her ex-husband’s negligence, she struggled with payments into the spring of 2020. Little did she know that the landlord’s law firm, The Law Offices of Kirk Cullimore, Utah’s leader in eviction, filed a motion to “amend the judgment” against her, alleging she owed $5,367.

The email also answered her question of why she hadn’t known of the court hearing beforehand: The firm had mailed the notice to an address she hadn’t lived at for years.
