Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) shared a video on Thursday mocking Mandy Cohen, President Joe Biden’s pick to be the new director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), branding her as the “masking queen.”
Cohen, who served as secretary of North Carolina’s Department of Health and Human Services, is considered by many to be controversial due to her Fauci-like approach to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Meet Mandy Cohen, the Biden administration’s ‘Masking Queen,'” Cruz said in a tweet. “She’s laughed off lockdowns, fangirled about Fauci, pushed mask mandates on school kids, and supported more government control over your life and health decisions.”
“She’s wholly unfit to lead the CDC,” he added.

The video is set to ABBA’s “Dancing Queen” but features different lyrics that focus on her support for many of the policies that were enacted during the pandemic.

The lyrics in the video are:
Wear a mask and she will try
to lock us down all of our lives.
See that girl,
Don’t make a scene,
She is the Masking Queen.
Lockdowns had our spirits low.
Didn’t have a place to go.
Kids kept out of school, didn’t learn a thing,
And Fauci was her king.
Kids kept out of school, depression for your teen.
Fauci was her king.
Mandy Cohen stood by her guy,
Drunk on power and feeling high.
With another press conference, just follow the science,
She’s got a cause to advance.
And when she got the chance,
She was the Masking Queen,
Puts one on coming on the screen.
Masking Queen, feel the pain of her mandating.
Wear a mask and she will try
to lock us down all of our lives.
See that girl,
I can’t see her, she’s wearing a mask!
She is the Masking Queen.
