 Ted Cruz Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

Ted Cruz has been grabbing headlines and stirring up the political pot yet again. In the last couple of days Cruz appeared on Fox Business and declared that the Democratic Party is in what he called a “civil war” after a supposed “radical left” takeover. He didn’t hold back pointing to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the newly prominent Zohran Mamdani as the driving force and even speculated that they could be the 2028 Democratic frontrunners, with Cruz dismissively stating that eligibility and legalities mean little to Democrats these days. And on X—formerly Twitter—Cruz labeled Mamdani a “communist jihadist,” which sent social media tongues wagging, though it also stoked plenty of criticism from across the aisle. In typical Cruz fashion, he also went after Nancy Pelosi, blaming her for what he described as the “radicalization” of House Democrats.

But it's not just red-meat politics. In terms of actual Senate work, Cruz has been making news as chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee. He’s gearing up for a major executive session this week, where the committee will consider several key transportation and maritime nominees. Internal committee chatter suggests Cruz is pushing for nominees who will be tough on regulatory overreach and focused on trade and safety—always a favorite theme for his Texas base. On the legislative front, Cruz has notched a bipartisan win with the Monetary Enhancement for Distinguished Active Legends Act—the “MEDAL” Act—which increases pensions for Medal of Honor recipients and passed the Senate unanimously. That’s a rare glimmer of feel-good legislative success in an otherwise feverish political climate.

Cruz’s role as a leader cracking down on Big Tech is intensifying. He helped advance the bipartisan Kids Off Social Media Act which would ban children under 13 from major platforms and force schools to filter access to social media on federally funded networks. According to Politico, the bill has generated fierce debate over free expression but is gaining traction, showing Cruz’s power to bridge divides when it comes to regulating tech and protecting minors online. He’s doubling down with calls for hearings and even more aggressive oversight of both government-driven censorship and tech platform accountability.

As for social media, outrage and applause flooded Cruz’s X account after he called out “government jawboning” with his new bill aimed at making it easier to sue the government for censorship. His podcasts and appearances continue, including an episode of “The Verdict” with Chip Roy earlier this month, plus he delivered a high-profile closing keynote at the 2025 Texas Policy Summit.

In business-related developments, Cruz urged caution regarding a federal ban on hemp-derived THC products, supporting states’ rights to regulate hemp and defending Texas’s own regulatory model. This position puts him at the volatile intersection of agriculture policy, states’ rights, and shifting drug laws.

No big bombshells in Cruz’s personal business dealings or financial disclosures have surfaced in the last 48 hours, nor has he made any major surprise public appearances beyond his scheduled Senate and media events.

That’s the very latest on Ted Cruz—at the center of political fights, crossing the aisle for legislative wins, and never far from the national spotlight or social media buzz.
