Ted Cruz once said on a televised interview, “If you can’t defend the topic, change the subject.” So, what’s for lunch?

[dianakentrent]

He keeps repeating himself with the standard political answer....

[IfixAirCraft]

So he's supposed to prosecute someone who wasn't charged with anything????

[JoseHernandez-spoj]

Question is what did he do about Trump besides kissing the ring?

[LDRRegan]

Do you remember Ted when you said that Donald Trump was a liar?

[srenbuhrkall]

So sick, totally ignores reality and how the system operates
Vote him out! What pain....

*"Nowadays having some savings is nice, but having investments is the wisest decision one can ever make, in order to be financially Stable” I’m so excited as I’m involved in an investment where I make 37k biweekly*

Cruise needs to talk to those 70 Marshalls. And find out if they were told to not to make an arrest. Then if they were told not to arrest any protesters, who told them.

[warpedone]

Didn't the head of another DOJ make the same determination? It would be up to the investigating official to determine whether to press charges or not.


And it seems to be one party that is doing it

[janepowers]

Just hearing his voice makes me nauseous.

Yellen, mayorkas, garland, candidates for judgeships, all the same, will not answer questions or answer wrong question! Underwhelming!

[cliftonstyronjr]

[aaronmeador]

[myriamcupril]

Why is Sen Ted Cruz ( Cuban roots) always acting like that ? So rudely.
They make questions and then doesnt give a chance to answer .Why is it so rudely with others Profesional at Congress .❤

[truthseeking]

T h e a t e r of P o l i e t i c s ... on ALL sides, no exceptions even yet.

[stevewilliams]

Okay now fire 🔥 I'm tired of him and he doesn't do nothing for but people

[carlbirdwell-ilqe]

We need to make a new law 50 years in state prison for lying to congress and 80 years for refusing to give a direct answer !

[andrewscott]

Would love to see Ted have to answer questions under oath.

[kalijasin]

Arrest has to be made before a defendant can be prosecuted. Ted Cruz of all people should know that. 🤦🏻‍♀️
