Trump aide Katrina Pierson ‘spills the beans’ on Heidi Cruz. The Hill reports:
“Spilling the beans is quite simple when it comes to Heidi Cruz,” Pierson said in an interview with MSNBC’s Steve Kornacki.
“She is a Bush operative; she worked for the architect of NAFTA, which has killed millions of jobs in this country; she was a member on the Council on Foreign Relations [CFR] who — in Sen. Cruz’s own words, called a nest of snakes that seeks to undermine national sovereignty; and she’s been working for Goldman Sachs, the same global bank that Ted Cruz left off of his financial disclosure,” Pierson said.
“Her entire career has been spent working against everything Ted Cruz says that he stands for,” she added.
Funny enough the Cruz campaign did not deny any of that.
Cruz spokeswoman Alice Stewart responded to the remarks in a statement to The Hill, saying, “There’s no low the Trump campaign won’t go.”
Well how about some back up documentation? CFR – Building a North American Community is the page where you can find the report. Or you can use this link: Building a North American Community – pdf.
HEIDI S. CRUZ is an energy investment banker with Merrill Lynch in Houston, Texas. She served in the Bush White House under Dr. Condoleezza Rice as the Economic Director for the Western Hemisphere at the National Security Council, as the Director of the Latin America Office at the U.S. Treasury Department, and as Special Assistant to Ambassador Robert B. Zoellick, U.S. Trade Representative. Prior to government service, Ms. Cruz was an investment banker with J.P. Morgan in New York City.
If you are disappointed that you couldn’t vote for a Bush in the primaries you can still vote for Ted Cruz.
This site has some opinions about Ted’s wife.
Heidi Cruz, has relentlessly been campaigning for her husband. And we’re not just talking about event appearances. She’s quoted as saying she’s made over 600 phone calls to potential donors in the first quarter of the campaign alone. No other candidate’s partner has ever stumped for their husband or wife like Heidi Cruz has for Ted. So what is it? What does Heidi Cruz get out of Ted Cruz winning the election, when it goes against her very own political ideologies?
You have to start asking yourself what’s the agenda here. Ted Cruz wants to deport all the migrants but his wife wants an open door policy and free travel between countries. At some point you have to ask is Ted Cruz a secret advocate for the North American Union? How can two people who share the same bed, are diametrically opposed to each other’s stance on immigration, be so single mindedly focused on getting into the White House.
That may have been the origin of this satire: Cruz Wife Call Girl, which was quite amusing when I read it yesterday. They seem to have blanked the page today. I wonder why?
Of course the concern about outsourcing is driven by stories like this one. Lawsuits Claim Disney Colluded to Replace U.S. Workers With Immigrants. And this: Disney Sacks American Employees, Makes Them Train Foreign Replacements.
Disney is laying off hundreds of American employees in favor of replacing them with cheaper foreign workers. Adding insult to injury, the former employees have 90 days to train their replacements or risk losing their promised bonuses.
It’s a loophole many companies are exploiting in the H1B visa law that allows them to bring in foreign labor when there’s a labor shortage. According to an attorney who spoke with ABC7 in Sarasota, Florida, there are about 800,000 H1B workers currently in the United States. Their purpose is to “fill highly specialized positions for companies that are unable to find qualified Americans to fill those jobs,” Sara Blackwell said.
And Disney is not the only one. Carrier Moving 1400 Jobs To Mexico
Well it is a global economy – just ask Heidi Cruz – and companies will move jobs to places where production costs are cheaper. That helps maintain or increase profits. But it greatly annoys the people replaced.
That chart says it all. And it has political repercussions.

That’s a really striking change of slope sometime around 1973.
What changed?
MMM,
Very good question.
I’d really rather vote for Robert Mercer. Failing that, maybe I could vote for his front man, Ted Cruz.
In other news, it looks like NAFTA was followed by wage growth resuming (at least a little bit).
Joseph,
The current political problem is the same one that arose in 1929.
it greatly annoys the people replaced
It takes about a generation to work through the skills mismatch. It will be hard times for about another 10 years.
[…] also failed to disclose Heidi’s interest in the North American Union (NAU) project. I’m sure it was just another minor oversight which he will correct soon. Real soon. […]
