Tens of millions of dollars” from the hard left “are flooding into Texas” to support Congressman Beto O’Rourke (D), said Senator Ted Cruz (TX-R).

That’s consistent with reports in many states.  The reason?  Democrats, contrary to the misconceptions of millions, have more of the top U.S. billionaires support than the GOP does.  There are billionaires like Sheldon Adelson, who support the GOP consistently.  But there are also billionaires, like George Soros, who’ve donated an estimated $32 billion to organizations that will in turn spend millions in various races supporting left-wing candidates, routinely Democrats.

So just as in 2016, Democrats outspent Republicans, that’s likely to be true when the dust settles in the 2018 midterms.  Sources say this could be the most costly midterm election in history.

If you look at the combination of the tax cut last year, the biggest tax cut in a generation, and regulatory reform, repealing the job-killing regulations of the Obama administration, that combination has been phenomenal for the state of Texas,” Cruz said during an interview with FOX Business’ Connell McShane.

Our economy is booming,” he added, noting that the U.S. recently achieved the lowest unemployment rate since 1969.  Cruz also believes that he and the GOP will feel a bump from the newsly seated Justice Brett Kavanaugh confirmation process, which he speaks about in this video.

The Labor Department said Friday the unemployment rate dropped to 3.7 percent. Average hourly wages rose 2.8 percent over the last 12 months.

In Texas, the unemployment rates was 3.9 percent in August, the most recent month of data from the Labor Department. That was down from 4 percent in July.

 

Economists have partly credited the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, signed by President Trump in December 2017, for supporting strong business investment and consumer sentiment this year. U.S. economic growth hit 4.2 percent in the second quarter, the fastest pace in nearly four years. The Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta has forecast 4.1 percent growth in the third quarter, while White House economist Kevin Hassett recently placed “50-50” odds that GDP growth for the current period would top 4 percent,” per Fox Business.

Predictability in law is the key to a prosperous Republic. Laws must be interpreted based on the language in them first and foremost. Only, when the language is unclear, should a judge seek evidence on related legislative discourse and legislative intent at the time the law was passed to help interpret it.
