Cruz Fact-Checked After Trying To Blame Biden For Open Border Wall Gates

The GOP Senator tried to blame Biden over a video of an open border wall before being fact-checked with a community note on X about the true purpose of the gates.

In yet another incident of politicians falling for social media misinformation, Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz shared a tweet on Monday that took a snippet of video out of context, leading to a misleading narrative about the border wall.

The tweet featured footage showing a section of the border wall appearing to be welded open, with a caption alleging that the Biden administration deliberately left the wall open as part of a strategic plan.

The original tweet claimed:

"The Biden administration welded open the Trump border wall in Tucson, AZ. It's not a crisis. It's by design."

 

Cruz retweeted the post, adding his own commentary that echoed the sentiment, calling the situation "nuts" and placing the blame on President Joe Biden.

You can see Cruz's tweet below.

Versions of the misleading message have been circulating within right-wing media circles, contributing to the perpetuation of the false narrative.

However, a crucial detail that emerged in an X Community Note appended to the original tweet casts the situation in a different light:

"These are floodgates that are required to be opened during Arizona's monsoon season. If left closed, the force of flash floods caused by seasonal rain and the debris they carry would topple the border wall."

"This practice was also done during the Trump administration."

Many have mocked Cruz for his gaffe.

This is the second time in the last week that Cruz has made headlines for falling for misinformation.

Earlier, the Texas Republican was mocked online after he fell for a an old photoshopped image of a shark supposedly swimming along a flooded 405 freeway in Los Angeles that circulated as Tropical Stom Hilary lashed Southern California.

Cruz retweeted the photo with a caption expressing surprise, only to be swiftly corrected by internet users who recognized the image as a variation of a hoax that has been circulating online since 2011.

Cruz later admitted he fell for a hoax.

From Insider:

The images are the work of an Instagram account called "RuPublicans," which uses AI to dress Republican lawmakers in drag — complete with frills, feathers, jewels, and wigs. The account's name is a play on Republicans and RuPaul, a famous drag queen and television personality.

The AI images feature DeSantis in a bejeweled blue gown that would put Cinderella to shame and Pence wearing nothing but a bright pink blazer and glittery boots, paired with a fluffy feather boa.

Also seen on the account was Sen. Ted Cruz in pink feathers and bold winged eyeliner and Sen. Josh Hawley decked out in a slinky golden dress, to name a few.

The captions are colorful, too.

Also featured in the AI art were other GOP figures like Sen. Lindsey Graham, pictured riding a fancy horse, and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, in all-pink drag regalia.

The brains behind the account, married couple Craig, 37, and Stephen, 39, said the "GOP's anti-drag rhetoric and actions" inspired them to find a way to hit back.

"Drag artists have brought us joy and laughter, helped heal old wounds, and given us the permission to love ourselves," the couple told Insider in an email. Craig works in the education industry, while Stephen is a creative director in marketing and technology. They did not provide Insider with their last names for privacy reasons.

"For the past two weeks, we have been creating and posting AI-generated art and captions that are just as over the top and ridiculous as the false narratives around drag," they said.

The duo said they used the AI image generator Midjourney to create the images.

"We don't always get what we want, but sometimes the AI generator gives us something we couldn't have imagined that blows us away, and we run with it," the couple said.
