Yesterday we told you about Ted Cruz calling out MSNBC’s Chuck Todd for his super dishonest reporting of Cruz’s pirate comments regarding piracy:
Sure, a frigate w/ skull & crossbones in space is unlikely anytime soon, but what MSNBC conveniently omits is the threat of piracy, espionage & violence from rogue & rival NATIONS is very real. Indeed, China has already developed & tested weapons to destroy satellites in space. https://t.co/fVUZUeWVLj

He then followed that up with a tweet directly to Chuck Todd regarding his dishonest reporting:
.@chucktodd You know how to report honestly, and this isn’t it. Next time, include actual facts, not just amusing movie clips.... https://t.co/5BiBsHzwIY

Later last night – about 5 hours later – Cruz read the Twitter Moments that quotes all the snarky tweets surrounding Chuck Todd’s dishonest reporting and he noticed his own tweet wasn’t there:
Hey @jack how come Twitter’s “moment” quotes all the snarky leftists making fun of my comments, but doesn’t include my tweets in response explaining the real point that NATIONS like China have already developed & tested weapons to destroy satellites? https://t.co/dwkM5ndXj3

That was late last night.
The tweet is now there, more than likely because he complained directly to @jack.
I’m not sure exactly how these US News twitter moments come together, but my guess is that Twitter has a department that creates these to inform people of current news stories, and that some lib employee just left his tweet out.
I’ve never done an analysis of these moments but I wouldn’t be surprise to find out they lean left.
