Friend: Frankly, we don't have the time or space to list every terrible thing Ted Cruz has ever done, and you probably don't want to spend the rest of your day reading about him. So, here are just a few highlights (or lowlights) – Ted Cruz's 2023 Year in Review, if you will:

First, Ted Cruz podcasted for 6,500 minutes this year. That's time taxpayers were paying him to serve Texas communities that he instead spent spewing MAGA conspiracy theories.

Then, he went viral for attacking everything from the Barbie movie to Bud Light. We can't figure out if he really believes his own nonsense or if he is just desperate for attention – either way, he sure isn't acting like a Senator.

Now, he's released a new book bragging about how "unwoke" he is, and while out promoting it, he talked about his future plans to run for president, saying, "I fully hope and expect to run again."

These are just a few of the ways Ted Cruz has failed Texans – and that's just this year. But experts agree we have a real chance to hold him accountable in 2024 and send him packing from the Senate for good.

That's why Colin is running against him, and that's why we're asking for your grassroots donation today. Every dollar counts in this battleground race, but with our crucial mid-month deadline coming up in just two days, we're falling WAY behind our $150,000 goal. Can Colin count on you to chip in before the deadline?
