Over an appearance on Sunday morning Futures over the weekend Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) spoke with host Maria Bartiromo about the appointment of U.S. Attorney David Weiss as special counsel in the ongoing Hunter Biden investigation.
“The result of all of that is that David Weiss either was an active participant in covering up this criminality and protecting Joe Biden in engaging in obstruction of justice. That is Option One,” Cruz said. “Or Option Two: he wasn’t the driver, he was just complicit. He was so weak that he could not stop the partisans and main justice from turning it into a political effort to protect Joe Biden.”
“Either case, he is a wildly inappropriate person to be a special counsel,” Cruz continued. “We should have a special counsel. We should have a special counsel to investigate Merrick Garland for whether he lied under oath the Congress into questioning from me and whether he committed obstruction of justice.”
Cruz also said that a special counsel was also needed to “investigate Joe Biden and $20 million that his family received while he was vice president” because that has not happened yet.
