‘With multiple investigations already underway, I do not support the politically motivated January 6 Commission led by Sen. Schumer and Speaker Pelosi’

WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) today issued the following statement in opposition to the Senate commission investigating the January 6 terrorist attack on the Capitol:

"The January 6 terrorist attack on the Capitol was a dark moment in our nation's history, and I fully support the ongoing law enforcement investigations into anyone involved. Everyone who attacked the Capitol must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and brought to justice. I also support the Senate committees of jurisdiction who are exercising their proper oversight roles to provide an in-depth and complete account of the attack. With multiple investigations already underway, I do not support the politically motivated January 6 Commission led by Sen. Schumer and Speaker Pelosi."

The biggest fish to fry is us giving the GOP an enema. Fixing the GOP is job one. Idiots like Cruz should realize that the topic of Jan 6 is the stolen election and the political prisoners rotting away for a year with no bail, no attorneys and no trials.

The usual suspects engaged in the usual blood lust stabbing frenzy of someone who VOTES our way 100% of the time.

Is it possible he is doing a bad Trump impersonation?
Trump got people worked up all the time by saying what nearly sounded like the opposite logic but then in a short time what he said actually was clear and right on the nose.
Not that Cruz is making sense.

Unless or until he identifies Jan 6 as a Reichstag fire, he is done.

I agree, I have never felt confortable with Ted Cruz. I have always felt he was a charlatan.

I was for Ted until Trump entered the race. Ted totally alienated me after that. I was starting to soften, but no more.

He is all ambition.

Not even the Constitution.

It’s certainly not time to play politics and to mince words.
There isn’t a lot of nuance here.
The actual people who orchestrated this or stepped aside and let others, are the ones in the lead “investigating” it.

I keep giving this man second and third chances with my trust. I keep hoping that maybe he was misquoted or what he stated was taken out of context, that maybe he had information I wasn’t privy too that influenced his decision for the best for our country. But in the end, he’s just another grifter looking for MY money and MY vote. Done with the guy.

Is one of those guys Ray Epps? Because Tucker and Cruz did talk about Ray Epps and the fact that he appears to be in the pay of the FBI.

Lyn’ Ted should resign and spend time with his family or Amanda or Kristen or whoever he is messing around with lately.

Never wanted him on the court.
Cannot understand why anyone would want someone on the court who thinks Anwar al-Awlaki’s kids, born in Yemen to one citizen parent, are natural born citizen eligible to be President.

If he is, they are.

Ray Epps will NEVER be held to any justice or any standard. Come on. He plays for team Corrupt Elites. He helped set this show up. There is NO WAY they are going to allow him to be hurt by any of this.

Well, I agree with terrorists who assaulted the police, Ted.

BUT, anyone who denies footage filmed that day where snipers didn’t shoot from the roof of the Capitol building and police waved folks through the metal fencing and into the building is worldly blind. DPS of MD brought three busses of Antifa into the mix! So, Senator Cruz, just watch the videos available in the public realm, much less the federal govt. realm!!!!!!

Truth will set you free!!!
Thank you Jesus Christ and God’s Word that is centuries old!!!

he makes me sick. and I voted for him in the 2016 primary. I fully got on board the Trump train though and have never looked back.

Cruz is running for president in 2024 and is desperate find something....anything....that sets him apart from Trump. I believe he just found it and it will be the death of him

Guy in top pic is Epps. Guy on bottom is known Antifa agitator who dressed as Trump supporter and incited violence.

This was all a set up. What certainly started out as a really good thing got co-opted by the dirty FBI and other nefarious organizations.
