Over the past week, there have been multiple articles regarding Heidi Cruz, her position at Goldman Sachs and her term membership on the Council of Foreign Relations (CFR). Not one of these articles gave any in-depth explanation – just unproven accusations and theories.
This is an in-depth look at all of the facts, with no theories or loose connections.
Let us evaluate the “globalist” agenda and Cruz’s past, to see if this accusation holds any truth.
Accusation: Ted Cruz and wife want to create a “North American Union” between Canada, Mexico and the United States. They are globalists who seek to eventually establish a “New World Order” via the United Nations.
In 2005, Heidi Cruz was a term member for an INDEPENDENT task force sponsored by The Council of Foreign Relations.

In 2005, Heidi Cruz was a term member for an INDEPENDENT task force sponsored by The Council of Foreign Relations.
What is the CFR?
Founded in 1921, the Council on Foreign Relations is an independent, national membership organization and a nonpartisan center for scholars dedicated to producing and disseminating ideas so that individual and corporate members, as well as policymakers, journalists, students,
and interested citizens in the United States and other countries, can better understand the world and the foreign policy choices facing the United States and other governments. The Council does this by convening meetings;conducting a wide-ranging Studies program; publishing Foreign Affairs, the preeminent journal covering international affairs and U.S. foreign policy;
maintaining a diverse membership; sponsoring Independent Task Forces; and providing up-to-date information about the world and U.S. foreign policy on the Council’s website, www.cfr.org.THE COUNCIL TAKES NO INSTITUTIONAL POSITION ON POLICY ISSUES AND HAS NO AFFILIATION WITH THE U.S. GOVERNMENT. ALL STATEMENTS OF FACT AND EXPRESSIONS OF OPINION CONTAINED IN ITS PUBLICATIONS ARE THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE AUTHOR OR AUTHORS.Description of the Independent Task Force of which Mrs. Cruz was a member via The Council of Foreign Relations:
The Task Force offers a detailed and ambitious set of proposals that build on the recommendations adopted by the three governments at the Texas summit of March 2005. The Task Force’s central recommendation is -establishment, by 2010, of a North American economic and security community, the boundaries of which would be defined by a common external tariff and an outer security perimeter. Unlike previous Council-sponsored Task Forces, this project was international, or tri-national to be precise. The membership was comprised of policy practitioners, scholars, and business leaders fromWhen you go to the local hardware store and set up an installation, the hardware store probably won’t be doing your installation. These companies hire outside installers to do the work, but take a percentage of the payment. This is how I would describe the Independent Task Force Mrs. Cruz took part in. She was hired to give a dissenting opinion of a plan to help strengthen the borders and increase economic stability between the countries within North America. That is exactly what she did:
each of the three countries.
I support the Task Force report and its recommendations aimed at building a safer and more prosperous North America. Economic prosperity and a world safe from terrorism and other security threats are no doubt inextricably linked. While governments play an invaluable role in both regards, we must emphasize the imperative that economic investment be led and perpetuated by the private sector. There is no force proven like the market for aligning incentives, sourcing capital, and producing results like financial markets and profit-making businesses. This is simply necessary to sustain a higher living standard for the poorest among us—truly the measure of our success. As such, investment funds and financing mechanisms should be deemedattractive instruments by those committing the capital and should only be developed in conjunction with market participants. Heidi S. CruzAnother reason for this claim, is that Heidi Cruz works for Goldman Sachs. This claim is actually true. However, Ted Cruz is running for President, NOT Heidi Cruz.. so I fail to see the problem.
According to Investment News :
Heidi Cruz, a Harvard Business School graduate who worked in President George W. Bush’s administration, joined New York-based Goldman Sachs in 2005 and was promoted to managing director, the firm’s second-highest rank, in 2012. She serves as regional head of the Houston office in the private wealth-management unit, which serves individuals and families who have on average more than $40 million with the firm.Ron Paul has been a strong voice, even nationally, against the CFR for a long time now, see video below:
What seems odd, is that according to The Texas Tribune, Ron Paul AND Rand Paul endorsed Cruz during his run for the Senate. As a strong advocate against the CFR, Ron Paul would not have endorsed Cruz as a “defender of liberty” if he believed that Ted Cruz was a threat to the sovereignty of the United States of America.Ron Paul and his son, U.S. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., gave ringing endorsements to Cruz’s bid to replace U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison. Ron Paul urged Texans at the event to “send Ted to the Senate because Rand needs help.Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., said his father was “one of the intellectual godfathers of the Tea Party.”“The revolution is working, we have infiltrated the Republican Party, and we will convert the Republican Party to defenders of liberty,” he said.And both Paul’s threw their support behind Cruz, who is in a crowded GOP fight for the nomination to succeed Kay Bailey Hutchison the U.S. Senate.“You have a candidate in Ted Cruz, I hope you’ll give him a chance, if you give him a chance you’ll have a real hero from Texas and you need one, he understands the constitution and what it’s about,” Rand Paul said.If there is a “New World Order” agenda on the rise, it is reasonable to assume that a gun ban would be helpful. I fail to believe the people (especially in the South) would be copacetic with a one world government. How does one accomplish that goal with an entire country of armed citizens?
Ted Cruz has been a constant member of the fight for the United States’ Second Amendment to the Constitution. Not only did he represent the State of Texas at the Supreme Court to fight for the 2nd Amendment, but he regularly has rallies for gun rights.
Sen. Ted Cruz Leads Fight to Defend 2nd Amendment In Wake of Efforts to Increase Gun Control – VISITS LARUE TACTICAL GUN MANUFACTURERLEANDER, TX – U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) today held a press conference discussing the importance of defending the Second Amendment in the wake of calls for increased gun control at the federal level. He spoke at LaRue Tactical, a nationally-renowned gun manufacturer located outside of Austin.“Evidence overwhelmingly demonstrates that when the rights of law-abiding citizens to protect themselves, their homes and their families are taken away, that violent crime increases and citizens are left more vulnerable to violent criminals,” said Sen. Cruz. “The Supreme Court made absolutely clear that the Second Amendment is a constitutional right of every American and constitutional rights are designed to be protected not just when they’re popular, but especially when passions are high among those seeking to restrict and limit those rights. While we should use every available means to deter and to punish mass murderers, the federal government should not be trying to ban gun ownership for law-abiding Americans.”
Another problematic issue point for the “Globalist” claim, is the fact that Cruz has routinely attacked climate change and the existence thereof.
Many disbelievers refer to the climate change agenda as a scam to help bring in the “New World Order”.Citing satellite data showing no significant warming, Cruz explained why he thinks those who promote the idea of climate change choose to ignore such facts.“Climate change is not science. It’s religion,” Cruz told Glenn Beck.To back up his claim, Cruz pointed to the way we talk about climate change.“Look at the language where they call you a ‘denier,'” he said. “Denier is not the language of science. Look, I’m the child of two scientists … The essence of the scientific method is to start with a hypothesis, then look to the evidence to disprove the hypothesis; you’re not trying to prove it, you’re trying to disprove it. Any good scientist is a skeptic; if he’s not, he or she should not be a scientist. But yet the language of the global warming alarmists, ‘denier’ is the language of religion, it’s heretic, you are a blasphemer. The response from the Sierra Club, ‘We have decreed this is the answer, you must accept it.’ And so he didn’t know his facts because he just knew his religion.”In an article by Politico:
