How did CNN get a copy of a text from Ted Cruz's wife to him about going
to Cancun?
I thought only the sender and the receiver saw texts.


Cruz has, maybe every chance he had, criticized people who left town
when they shoudln't. The mayor of Austin who went to Mexico, Chris
Christie for going to the beach, and one other time that made the news.


A woman called into CNN and she was annoyed that he left town. She
apologized to Mexico, also said "We're not sending our best" !!



Simple. Arlen Holder made them a part of your permanent record.

I found this.
Some phone companies also keep records of sent text messages. ...
Verizon holds texts for up to five days and Virgin Mobile keeps them for
90 days. AT&T, T-Mobile and Sprint do not keep the contents of text
messages.

I just saw on the news that Cruz has police protection in front of his
house. Some very unhappy people there.
