Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz has labelled New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez a "parasite sucking on the taxpayer" because she collects a federal paycheck - just as he does. Cruz was guesting on Sean Hannity's Fox News show Monday evening when he lashed out at "radical extremists" like Massachusetts Sen.

Seven American passengers left the Dutch cruise ship last month, and 17 more are due to disembark in the Canary Islands on Sunday before being brought home.
