Anonymous threatens to expose Ted Cruz's alleged prostitution activity if he doesn't leave the race

After going after the likes of the KKK, ISIS, and Donald Trump, the entity known as Anonymous is now threatening to expose Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz. On March 15, the “hacktivists” released a YouTube video telling the world Cruz is harboring secrets of which his religious zealot followers might not approve.

Here is the video.

In the beginning, Anonymous attacks Cruz for committing voter fraud and lying.

“Almost every word that comes out of your mouth is a complete lie.”

At the end, Anonymous gives Cruz an ultimatum.

​”Have you heard of the expression “candy wrappers”? Do you recall visiting prostitutes? Mr. Cruz, we are now demanding you exit this race immediately or Anonymous will release all of the information that we have found. You’re so called underground acts that you think were done in the dark, will be brought out for all the public to see. It will be sent to every media outlet to publicize your disgusting behavior. We assure you it will go viral on every social media platforms in a matter of minutes.”

It's very believable that Ted Cruz is harboring some dark secrets. And many would love to know just how dark and dirty it gets. But there is most likely a majority who would simply love to see this insidious and dishonest politician leave office/politics — for good. If Anonymous causes this to happen, more power to them.

1. My black heart insists that I R&K this. nt

[Warpy]

30. Mine, too,

just on the off chance it happens.

We've had the scandal rug pulled out from under us too many times to hope too much, but maybe Carson knows where the bodies are buried and provoked this one. It would be nice if he turned out to be useful as something besides a sleep aid.

[longship]

33. Carson.... ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz.....

[hollysmom]

2. he would have to be a virginal man considering he doesn't live with his family.

I think his wife made that decision for her mental health.

[Docreed2003]

11. I think so as well...

There's a great clip after on of his appearances where he leans in to kiss her and she visably shirks away in disgust. That told me everything I needed to know!

[Sen. Walter Sobchak]

31. I think I would like to learn more about his wife

For someone with her background it seems like she could have "married better" than that greaseball. I can only assume she is a true believer, even if only in the agenda and not the man.

[MADem]

3. Are they telling the truth, or is this another one of those "dud"

things that sound like "Ooooooooh boy!!!!!" and turn out to be a false alarm?

I remember when everyone thought a certain Bush political operative was about to be indicted and frog marched, and that turned out to be total bullshit, too.

That's one thing about being "ANONYMOUS." Anyone can put this shit up, use that stupid mechanical voice, and act like they are speaking with authority--because NO ONE has any authority in that loose confederation of discontented individuals who are apparently angry that "Mr. Cruz" was mean to "Mr. Carson" -- this sounds like a bunch of horse shit to me--a way to damn with insinuation and accusations.

I'll believe it when I see it.

[Qutzupalotl]

8. Actually Rove was close to indictment but Luskin turned the tables

with a brilliant chronic amnesia defense.

The story wasn't bullshit when it was released, but unexpected actions changed the outcome in Rove's favor. So yes, it wound up not coming to pass, but at the time of the story an indictment was indeed imminent. An accurate shapshot and not based on nothing.

[MADem]

10. Well, I recall the drama here where it was imminent, then it

was going to happen within 24 hours, then 24 business hours (whatever that was)...and then, it never happened.

And Rove is still out there, shitting on the process, running a super pac. Untouched. Unpunished. Unaccountable.

[scottie55]

13. He's A Republican

Above prosecution.

Did you forget?

Look at Scooter Libby.....

[Qutzupalotl]

14. Two things:

1) DU is a mixture of fact, opinion and speculation, and posts must be looked at as individual contributions rather than collective consensus, and

2) Anonymous is not DU, and they have certain skills that go well beyond speculation.

[MADem]

17. Well, the original report of the 24 business hours was not first

published at DU--this isn't a "DU" thing.

And I could create an "ANONYMOUS" video and upload it too. It's not like anyone has a lock on that stuff--heck, just put a new voice over on this "How To" video and there ya go!

I'm just not impressed with ANONYMOUS. Most of the time, their claims are horseshit. That's probably because anyone can join.

[brush]

37. Let's just wait and see. They do seem to be on our side.

I recall they claimed to have helped in 2012 by screwing up Rove's vaunted GOTV machine ORCA.

Whether it was them or not, somebody hacked it because Rove and his operatives couldn't use it on election day.

[cwydro]

15. Me too.

Anonymous talks a bunch.

Action? Not so much.

[rpannier]

34. I'm with you on this

If they have something, put it out there
The threat if he doesn't quit the race makes it sound far-fetched
If this individual has anything, put it out there
Why hold it back?

[former9thward]

4. I would love Anonymous to make good on one of their threats.

It never happens.

[JimDandy]

22. I know. Their threats are so meaningless that they have become passe'.

[brush]

38. Remember ORCA, Rove's vaunted GOTV machine in 2012?

Somebody hacked it and it was no use on election day. Anonymous claimed it was their work.

Let's wait and see on this.

[former9thward]

62. No, that is not what they claimed.

They claimed, without any evidence whatsoever, that Rove had a super-computer that would hack the election and change election results. They claimed they stopped that. Well my claim is that I stopped a Martian invasion.

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/11/17/1162678/-Anonymous-claims-it-stopped-Karl-Rove-from-hacking-the-vote

[brush]

63. You just said the same thing I did without using the name of Rove's program, ORCA

What's up with that?

I still say wait and see on whether Anonymous delivers. If they bring down Cruz it helps us.

Why be against that if it happens?

I'm certainly not.

[former9thward]

66. I am against people who illegally hack computers.

You are not. I get that -- until it happens to you. I am also against people who live in a fantasy world and issue fantasy world threats.

[brush]

67. You didn't address that you said the same thing I did without using the word ORCA . . .

while claiming I was wrong.

Your objection to hacking is a whole other issue you introduced.

[former9thward]

68. I did not say the same thing.

I said the opposite. I get that you can't see that. Anonymous did nothing in 2012.

[brush]

69. I said that ORCA was hacked and rendered useless on election day. I didn't say Anonymous . . .

actually did it, only that they claimed to have done it.

I also get that you didn't get that.

[Xipe Totec]

5. Ok, let's get a grip here

If they had the goods on the Donald, the best thing to do would be to publish them.

Why be coy?

[Stallion]

6. Male or Female?

that's what America wants to know

[closeupready]

12. +1 - gay sins, basically, are the only ones that count with

the voters to whom he is trying to appeal.

[Raster]

18. Dead girl or live boy?

...in diapers and/or leather (cruz)?

[eShirl]

42. adult or underage

[Cali_Democrat]

7. Well......

That's interesting.....

[MisterP]

9. *paying* prostitutes?! oh dear child, you're not even close

[mythology]

16. I'm uncomfortable with the thought of Ted Cruz being exposed

I didn't need that image in my head when I'm trying to go to sleep.

[rpannier]

36. You don't think you'll have the same thought bubble as Homer Simpson

You won't be thinking, "Stupid Sexy Cruz!"

Simpsons
Ned Flanders: Feels like I'm wearing nothing at all!
Homer: Stupid Sexy Flanders

http://simpsons.wikia.com/wiki/Stupid_Sexy_Flanders

[AgadorSparticus]

19. Interesting! I KNEW there was some sordid secret with Cruz!

.........Every. Day. This election this election just gets better and better.

[pnwmom]

20. All of this would just help Kasich, who would be much stronger

in a General Election than Cruz.

Kasich is a nasty right-wing extremist, but he hides it well beneath Reagan-style geniality.

[SoapBox]

21. So....he was a prostitute?

I would want a refund!

[hollysmom]

27. no no, I think that was Rubio.

well he did room with a porn film maker, maybe he made films? It was the most interesting thing about that empty suit.

[Brother_Love]

72. Rubio and Cruz did a porn film together??? What part did Rubio play?

[Kablooie]

23. Trouble is that Anonymous has been mostly unsuccessful carrying out threats.

They talk a good game but when they reveal the data it's always just some easily found, googled info. They've rarely had actual hacked, secret data.

[Oneironaut]

43. Most of them are just kids with very little skill.

They've seen hacker movies too many times. Their "hacks" almost entirely consist of DDOS attacks using someone else's program. It's something anyone can download.

The news really shouldn't be reporting what Anonymous says. They're as reliable as a random YouTube comment. There are no standards of what they put out, including threats. That's why Anonymous has threatened everyone, from
ISIS to Scientology.

[flamingdem]

24. Sure looks like it's Trump for the Nom

Hahaha, they don't like Cruz much more and the rules prevent Mitt from riding in on his white (dancing and prancing) horse.

[yuiyoshida]

25. The thing is, most Republicans wouldn't care about that

unless they are ultra moral... but the ones who have money and no morals will cheer him on.. So its no big deal, nor will it destroy his chances of being elected.

[RandySF]

26. He'll just say Jesus forgave him.

[Hekate]

29. Amazing how that is nearly always the GOP get out of jail free card. IOKYAR....

....because Jesus loves you. smh

[trotsky]

56. Couple it with the "youthful indiscretions" excuse...

which for a Republican is valid up until oh, your 50s?... longer?... and you're golden.

[Sen. Walter Sobchak]

28. Anonymous cares about Ben Carson? really?

And what the hell does "candy wrappers" mean, Google and Urban Dictionary fail me.

[Contrary1]

32. Urban Dictionary...

Candy wrappers is another term for condoms.

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=candy+wrapper

[Sen. Walter Sobchak]

35. weird, it gave me an ascii dude shrugging and saying it wasn't defined.

[1monster]

39. Okay, Annonymous, it is not kosher or democratic to blackmail

a candidate out of a political race.

Just release the information and let the people decide.

[MowCowWhoHow III]

40. Wowee

[trusty elf]

41. ....

[img][/img]

[meow2u3]

51. DUzy!

[mountain grammy]

57. Thanks, my keyboard is a mess..

[Brother_Love]

71. OMG

[Vinca]

44. If they release it, I might have a sudden "come to Jesus" moment. LOL.

By the way . . . what's a "candy wrapper?" Never mind, I don't want the image of Cruz doing some funky sex thing in my head.

[ScreamingMeemie]

45. It's not so bad... at least, the definition I know of is not so bad.

I always heard it used for condom.

[Vinca]

46. OMG - does Anonymous have some DNA?

Oh, please, please. Release the hounds.

[HereSince1628]

47. Blackmail bullshit. This is clearly an preannouncement of an act to defame

and if their reputation means anything to them they must show this is true and not libel.

Otherwise their are just Claribel honking his horn for attention.

[sibelian]

50. It's becoming increasingly irritating.

All it does is make criticism of presidential candidates in general look like something to be done fearfully and from the dark.

I think it's stupid.

[reddread]

53. Trump benefits, if this is "real" Anonymous then they are fake.

Anyone taking this tack is scum.
Cruz is hardly a serious target.

[morningfog]

48. I thought they had a war on trump. Cruz leaving the race would guarantee a trump nomination.

[sibelian]

49. Hm. Not impressive.

Not impressive at all.

[randr]

52. So Anonoymous went after the KKK, ISIS, and Trump

I guess we don't have these people to worry about any more?

[Javaman]

54. Why threaten? just do it. nt

[CanonRay]

55. Yes, kick this

because you know that smarmy evil bastard has some real mouldy ones in the closet.

[mountain grammy]

58. I say, if you got it, use it..

the man's an amoral jerkoff.

[librechik]

59. my guess, males. n/t

[JHB]

60. So do it! If they actually have this stuff, why be coy?

Either they don't actually have anything convincing, or they're just giving him time to prepare damage control.

Either way, a blatant blackmail message isn't particularly effective.

[sarcasmo]

61. Kick

[Blue_In_AK]

64. Good.

Smarmy bastard. He's just the type.

[FourScore]

70. LOL! I know, right? n/t
