Ted. Oh Teddy, Teddy, Ted.
We imagine there’ll be talks of a hack or that new intern copping the blame for this.
A NSFW video is receiving a lot of traction online and it’s all because US Senator Ted Cruz.
Yes, on Monday night, Cruz’s Twitter account liked a graphic two minute long video on the social media site prompting said video to appear on many other people’s timelines due to Twitter’s timeline algorithm.
Cruz has over three million followers on Twitter, so it’s likely that his interaction with the video from @SexuallPosts pushed it onto thousands of peoples’ timelines.
It wasn’t immediately clear whether it was a hacker, Cruz himself or a staffer with access to the account who liked the tweet.
Here is the video that Cruz’s account liked (although we edited it slightly to make it safer for work).
But of course, everyone was going to notice, how could they not?

The wager…
I'll pay $10 to any reporter that asks Ted Cruz if he's seen any good movies lately. #TedCruz

It’s all a trick to distract you from the truth…
Don't let the Ted Cruz porn story distract you from the fact that he is somehow younger than Jennifer Lopez.
