They do not, but Democratic Socialists of America want to abolish the Senate (and a lot of other stuff). Francesca Hong, a Democratic candidate for governor of Wisconsin had a social media post against Thanksgiving surface. Cruz doesn't get it from nowhere, he just finds anyone on the left with an extreme view and paints it as the position of 'the Democrats'.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

Marjorie Taylor Greene, 52, announced Tuesday she had joined Cameo, the website where people or businesses can pay celebrities and other recognizable people for personalized videos.
For just $149, people can ask Greene to make a video saying whatever they want. For another $5,000, businesses can book a personalized video from her.

What would you pay her to say?
How about:
Dear Steve and Brandon, congratulations on your wedding! I hope you have a fun honeymoon. Now you can finally adopt a baby. I heard you were planning on becoming gay dads to a girl. That will certainly be a lot of fun. Anyway, good luck.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

It’s probably a smart move for her. The article mentions that disgraced former Congressperson George Santos made US$174 000 doing the same thing.
