"Ted Cruz (not my favorite senator at the moment) may have read some of the widely-deserved criticism a bunch of us have been hurling at him, because he appears to be trying to get to the bottom of the FBI’s involvement in the Jan. 6 riots. (“Appears” is an important word here, because, most likely, no action will follow his eloquent questioning.)
Cruz interrogated the FBI Executive Assistant Director of the National Security Branch, Jill Sandborn, about the role the FBI played. Her responses do not inspire confidence that the federal government wasn’t inciting violence that day.
“How many FBI agents or confidential informants actively participated in the events of January 6th?” asked Cruz.
“Sir, I’m sure you can appreciate that I can’t go into the specifics of sources and methods, uhhh,” replied Sanborn.
Cruz then asked Sandborn if the FBI participated and demanded she answer yes or no. “I can’t answer that,” she replied.
Cruz continued, “Did any FBI agents or confidential informants commit crimes of violence on January 6th?”
Sandborn again replied, “I can’t answer that.”
Each time Cruz tried to nail down the FBI’s involvement, Sandborn dodged with a refusal to answer. If the FBI was not involved, wouldn’t they say so? What is the purpose of saying “I can’t answer that,” if not to cover up for whatever it is they did that day? And why can’t they be forced to show senators the files of their informants? Isn’t that something our senators are entitled to see? ..."

Cruz called me a terrorist and I’ll never forget that (no I wasn’t THERE there, just there in spirit because the election was stolen and nobody stopped it from happening). That said, these were good questions and the answers prove the FBI are the true domestic terrorists.
He was referring to protesters who attacked police. Did you attack the police?
Yea, seems obvious they are covering something up. The exact details are something that will be eventually known. Hopefully, sooner rather than later.
That was his excuse......his back pedaling
.....but we all heard what he REALLY said.
It was the final act of the coup perpetrated by the FBI ( and other deep state commies) that went on for 4 years.
The FBI would and will never admit or acknowledge such, bet.
I mean geez, just as JFK, oh wait....../s
Cruz called those committing violence for political ends terrorists. And he was write to do so. Too bad, he backed down.
Because they were the main instigator.
Just like this “patriot front” fake group they fill with Marine
Recruits and try to start violence.
This is BS. There were no terrorists on Jan 6ht. So F off.
So Ashli Babbitt is a terrorist? LOL. What buffoonery.
Why not?
I watched a video of what he said. There was no distinction like that given by Cruz.
"We are approaching a solemn anniversary this week," Cruz said. "And it is an anniversary of a violent terrorist attack on the Capitol, where we saw the men and women of law enforcement demonstrate incredible courage, incredible bravery, risk their lives to defend the men and women who served in this Capitol.
"We are grateful for that courage, we appreciate the selfless sacrifice of the men and women who keep us safe."
This is a guy that barely won an election over a shit eating skateboarder and fake Mexican
Cruz is a worthless POS. He won’t get to the bottom of anything. Even if he does, it is not his instinct. He is just fighting for survival now and can’t be trusted in the future.
YES!! We ALL KNOW the CORRUPT FBI is out to DESTROY ANYONE INVOLVED WITH TRUMP!! ALL &( MILLION OF US!
You actually believed him? PT Barnum was right.
Bottom line. Cruz wants to run for the big chair again, and the man standing in his way is Trump. It was a smarmy hit on Trump and his supporters. It wasn’t accidental, it was a miscalculation as to what the massive blow back response would be. Typical Ted. His questioning the FBI is his desperate attempt at reconciling with the MAGA crowd. I appreciate the questioning, but it is just typical Washington jaw flapping. Until there is actual action it is just glad handing. He has a long long long way to go before I would forgive him.
And, I have never attacked a cop, and your buying that load of crap that spewed out of Ted’s mouth shows your judgement is very very poor.
Ashli Babbitt. Say her name, you cretin.
