Repugnant Republican is Cruzing for a bruising

THE BUCK STOPS HERE

-

ONE of America’s most odious politician­s is Texas senator Ted Cruz.

This week, his state suffered historic freezing temperatur­es that left more than ten people dead and millions without power or running water.

People would do well to remind themselves just how vile Cruz is. Only last year, he revelled in the distress of Democrat-led California­ns when wildfires knocked out the power there.

He tweeted: “California is now unable to perform even basic functions, like having reliable electricit­y.”

You’d think he’d now be doing everything he could to make amends while getting Texas back on track.

But instead, the repugnant Republican jumped on a plane to the sunny climes of Mexico for a family holiday. What a guy.

A Florida woman who repeatedly stabbed her sister with an EpiPen told police she was “allergic to drunks” and was trying to sober up the victim, officers said. Joanna Zielinski, 62, and Laura, 64, were boozing in their Naples home when the elder sibling fell asleep. Joanna then attacked her. She said: “I’m allergic to drunks, so I injected her with the EpiPen so she wouldn’t be drunk.” She has been charged with domestic battery.

Tennessee’s Bill Dorris left his £3.6million fortune to his eight-year-old border collie Lulu when he died.

The businessma­n, who was unmarried and ran a bath company for the disabled, left the dog in the care of his 88-year-old friend, Martha Burton. Makes you wonder how Martha is living now…

Joseph Davis is a wanted man – and not just by the police. Florida cops issued an arrest warrant for him after he stole an engagement and wedding ring from his partner only to use them to propose to another girlfriend.

Davis, 48, was rumbled when his ex looked up her love rival’s Facebook page and noticed a photo of her wearing the rings.

After committing one of the “biggest blunders in banking history”, America’s Citibank won’t be allowed to recover the almost half a billion dollars it accidental­ly wired to wrong accounts, a US District Court judge ruled.

The world’s largest 3D-printed home has gone up for sale in Riverhead, New York, for £214,000.

The move is bad news for lazy builders – the house took just eight hours to print.

P.S. Indoor dining is back in New York, giving my barman Richard hope of work. He’s still tussling with his wife. She accused him of not liking her relatives. He said: “It’s not that I dislike them. In fact, I like your mum-in-law better than I like mine.”
