Newsweek even reached out to Cruz’s office for comment, because America needed answers.
Well, Newsweek is apparently on a hot streak when it comes to important scoops that matter:

Touching story. Compelling and rich. I could almost feel like I was there.

Joe Biden’s Mario Kart game is literally as newsworthy as Ted Cruz’s Babylon Bee tweet, according to Newsweek. Just in case you’re wondering how they prioritize their stories.
