Don't Give Your Twitter Password to Your Staff
While good people in America were sleeping, somebody got onto Ted Cruz's Twitter account and "liked" a pornographic video. I'm glad Cruz reported it to Twitter.

Sen. Ted Cruz said Tuesday that a staff member of his was responsible for "liking" a pornographic Twitter post with the Texas lawmaker's account, chalking up the social media snafu to a "mistake."
"There are a number of people on the team who have access on the account. It appears that someone inadvertently hit the like button. When we discovered the post, which was I guess an hour or two later, we pulled it down," Cruz (R-Texas) said of the incident. "It was a staffing issue. And it was inadvertent, it was a mistake. It was not a deliberate act. We're dealing with it internally, but it was a mistake. It was not malicious."
Cruz told reporters Tuesday that it was "still being discussed" whether the staff member in question would retain access to the senator's social media account.
Earlier Tuesday, a spokeswoman for Cruz announced via her own Twitter account that the "like" had been undone and that the post had been reported to Twitter.

The clip itself is just over two minutes, details of its contents mostly unprintable. It features a sectional sofa, the pornographic actress Cory Chase, her fictitious nude stepdaughter, and a very energetic young man.
