Former House Speaker Joe Boehner told Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz to “go f**k yourself” while taping the audiobook of his memoir, according to Axios.
Boehner said, “Oh, and Ted Cruz, go f**k yourself.” while recording for his book, titled “On The House: A Washington Memoir,” Axios reported Thursday.
The book is set to be released on April 13, according to Barnes and Noble, and will share “colorful tales from the halls of power.”
Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas spoke at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) on Friday where he responded to the former Speaker of the House John Boehner’s expletive statement.
“You know yesterday, John Boehner made some news. He suggested that I do something that was anatomically impossible.”
“Who is John Boehner?” Cruz responded.
Boehner was the speaker of the House from 2011 to 2015, leaving to allow then-Republican Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin to take his place.
The former speaker of the House tweeted a picture of him recording the audiobook Thursday, saying “blame the wine for the expletives.”
“There were some off-script moments during his recording of the audiobook,” Boehner’s spokesperson David Schnittger said according to Axios. “He pretty much just let it fly, as he did when he was working on the book itself. He’s not really interested in being anything other than himself these days. That is kind of the spirit of the entire project.”
