Former House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) still seems to despise Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and he took an off-script detour from recording his new audiobook to declare it.

In a rogue moment while recording the audio for his memoir, Boehner exclaimed: Oh, and Ted Cruz, go fuck yourself, Axios reported Thursday , citing two unnamed sources familiar with the session.

You can blame the wine for the expletives, Boehner tweeted about his On The House: A Washington Memoir tapings, along with a photo of him behind a microphone holding a glass of red wine.

Axios didnt provide the context for the insult, but it comes days after Cruz was caught taking a Cancun beach vacation in the midst of a deadly Texas cold siege that left many without heat or clean water.

Boehners off-the-cuff diss shouldnt come as a surprise. He once called Cruz Lucifer in the flesh .

I have Democrat friends and Republican friends. I get along with almost everyone, but I have never worked with a more miserable son of a bitch in my life, he said of the Texas lawmaker.
