Ted Cruz appears to be laying down the groundwork for post political life should Texas continue its blue trajectory, and it involves littering American bookshelves with his blood red, right-wing propaganda.
Last week, the anti-LGBTQ senator announced his new book “Unwoke: How to Defeat Cultural Marxism in America” will be released in November, just in time for the holidays.According to the book’s promotional blurb, it promises 256 pages of “a long overdue argument against the woke takeover of education, big business, the media, and Hollywood” from the “bestselling author.”Big announcement on Hannity tonight— I’m writing a new book: Unwoke: How to Defeat Cultural Marxism in America.

That book, however, failed to crack the bestseller list. Cruz hasn’t said whether he plans to enter the race for the White House in 2024, although last month he announced he’s running for a third term in the U.S.
