Stephen King tries to mock Ted Cruz and gets decimated over the border crisis



Republican Sen. Ted Cruz fired back at Stephen King after the liberal author tried to mock him on the issue of the crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Cruz had posted a video of his interview on Fox News to Twitter when King mocked him by referencing a trip to Cancun Cruz took when an energy crisis left many Texans without power during a brutal snowstorm in February 2021.

"I spend a lot of time at the southern border. I've spent a lot of time with our border patrol agents. It's never been remotely this bad. This is an invasion & our families are less safe because Joe Biden is president," Cruz tweeted.

"You’ve also spent a lot of time in Cancun. That’s pretty south, right?" King mocked.

Cruz fired back on Monday.

"Multi-millionaire Leftist @StephenKing sits in his mansion in Maine and laughs at the kids being abused & the women being sexually assaulted on our Southern border," Cruz responded.

"He doesn’t give a damn about their suffering—or about the 853 migrants who died last year or the 100k Americans who died of drug overdoses," he added.

"Nope. What does he want to talk about? Cancun," Cruz concluded.

The crisis of the border has worsened greatly under President Joe Biden's first term as more and more migrants have crossed into the U.S. ostensibly seeking asylum.

The "Remain in Mexico" immigration policy instituted during the Trump administration allowed the government to require asylum applicants to stay outside of the U.S. while their applications were processed. That law has been rescinded on the basis that the pandemic had led to a public health crisis that granted the government extraordinary powers.

'Does your momma tell people her kid perished in a fire rather than acknowledge your sorry existence?' Dan Bongino unloads on Stephen King in Twitter back-and-forth



Popular conservative commentator Dan Bongino has been unleashing attacks against renowned writer Stephen King in response to the novelist's jabs about Bongino's career.

Each day, Bongino posts a tweet describing President Joe Biden as "the WORST president in US history."

King responded to Bongino's May 1 post by tweeting, "And you're out of a job at Fox. Biden still has his."

"Yeah dude, working six days a week, doing a top-ten podcast, a nationally syndicated radio show, managing billion dollar tech investments, and finishing off another book made me reevaluate my work schedule. But keep b****ing and moaning like a chump on Twitter while we use you for comedy relief in show material. #Dip****," Bongino fired back.

Last month, Bongino announced that he would no longer be doing his weekly show on the Fox News Channel because he and the company had been unable to come to terms regarding an extension.

\u201cYeah dude, working six days a week, doing a top-ten podcast, a nationally syndicated radio show, managing billion dollar tech investments, and finishing off another book made me reevaluate my work schedule. But keep bitching and moaning like a chump on Twitter while we use you\u2026\u201d

But the Twitter back-and-forth between King and Bongino did not end there.

"Today is May 7th, and Joe Biden is the WORST president in US history," Bongino tweeted on Sunday.

King replied, "At least he has a job."

"Yeah, you're right douchebag, unemployment has been rough for me. I've tried to cope each morning at 11a on my show (job?) with my millions of viewers. And then, I cry a lot on hundreds of radio stations nationwide on my other show (job?) from 12-3p while you're eating Ben & Jerry's, living off of your former reputation as a non-a**hole. Now that I've humiliated your dumb a** again, you can go sit down in the corner and cry those delicious liberal tears," Bongino responded.

\u201cYeah, you\u2019re right douchebag, unemployment has been rough for me. I\u2019ve tried to cope each morning at 11a on my show (job?) with my millions of viewers. And then, I cry a lot on hundreds of radio stations nationwide on my other show (job?) from 12-3p while you\u2019re eating Ben &\u2026\u201d

"Wah-wah-wah," King replied.

"Keep crying you chump. Does your momma tell people her kid perished in a fire rather than acknowledge your sorry existence? After spawning you, is she horrified? Does that pain fuel your perverted stories?" Bongino tweeted.

\u201c@StephenKing Keep crying you chump. Does your momma tell people her kid perished in a fire rather than acknowledge your sorry existence? After spawning you, is she horrified? Does that pain fuel your perverted stories?\u201d

On Wednesday, King responded to a tweet in which Bongino described the president as "a disgrace to humankind" and "an embarrassment to the human race in every respect."

"Yes. But he's got a real job, not a podcast," King tweeted.

"Yeah, you're right. Millions of listeners a day on a podcast while you're watching porn in your momma's basement yearning for the days that people actually gave a s*** about your dumb a**. Nice comeback dip****. Get a job loser," Bongino wrote in response.

\u201c@StephenKing Yeah, you\u2019re right. Millions of listeners a day on a podcast while you\u2019re watching porn in your momma\u2019s basement yearning for the days that people actually gave a shit about your dumb ass. Nice comeback dipshit. Get a job loser.\u201d
— Dan Bongino (@Dan Bongino) 1683720930

"Please tag @StephenKing in all future tweets about Biden. He loves it," Bongino tweeted on Thursday.

\u201cPlease tag @StephenKing in all future tweets about Biden. He loves it.\u201d

Far-left website and liberal author Stephen King forced to walk back false claims about Ron DeSantis that spread misinformation



A far-left website and liberal author Stephen King were forced to walk back a dishonest accusation against Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. The misinformation against the Republican governor of Florida was also spread by left-wing groups.

On July 6, the 74-year-old progressive author Stephen King told his more than 6.7 million followers, "DeSantis signs bill requiring Florida students, professors to register political views with state. I. Can't. Even."

\u201cDeleted, but The List comes for all, @StephenKing.\n\n\u270d\ufe0f\u270d\ufe0f\u270d\ufe0f\u201d
— The List (@The List) 1657470434

However, the claim that DeSantis required students and professors to register their political alliances was, in fact, false.

Left-leaning PolitiFact specifically called out King, and reported: "Florida not requiring professors, students to register political views with the state."

It appears that King was referencing Florida House Bill 233 – which called for the states’ public colleges and universities to "conduct an annual assessment of the intellectual freedom and viewpoint diversity."

King walked back his incorrect condemnation of DeSantis.

"I deleted a tweet about Ron DeSantis requiring notice of political views of students and teachers. That really was fake news. Sorry," King tweeted on Saturday.

King may have garnered the notion of the "fake news" about DeSantis from Salon.

The horror story novelist blamed Salon for spreading misinformation, "I regret having posted the headline without being more confident the story was correct. Salon is usually more reliable. Twitter is a constant learning experience, and I will try to do better.”

Salon published an article in June 2021 titled: "DeSantis signs bill requiring Florida students, professors to register political views with state."

However, Salon has also walked back its claims against the Republican governor of Florida.

The claim was so outlandish that even left-leaning CNN issued a fact-check on the issue.

CNN issued a significant clarification:

"The 2021 law does require public colleges and universities in Florida to administer annual surveys on the subject of "'intellectual freedom and viewpoint diversity.' But contrary to the inaccurate initial Salon headline, the law does not require anybody to register their political views. Students and faculty members can decide whether to participate in the surveys, which are anonymous."

Salon altered its headline to: "DeSantis signs bill requiring survey of Florida students, professors on their political views."

Salon executive editor Andrew O'Hehir told CNN that the progressive media outlet revised the headline because it conveyed a "misleading impression of what the Florida law actually said, and did not live up to our editorial standards."

The misinformation regarding DeSantis was reportedly spread by prominent left-wing groups and advocates.

Fox News reported:

However, the Salon article resurfaced on Twitter this week as if the law had just passed. The Lincoln Project and its co-founder Rick Wilson promoted the false article along with MSNBC contributor Claire McCaskill, former Obama campaign staffer Jon Cooper, OccupyDemocrats executive editor Grant Stern and leftist activist group MeidasTouch. Even journalists like USA Today correspondent Josh Meyer and Philadelphia Inquirer columnist Will Bunch also parroted the fake narrative.
