Sen. Cruz JUST said the justice dept. under Obama was the most politicized & weaponized in his

lifetime! Said Holder said he was Obama's Wing Man. (At the confirmation hearing for Judge Garland.)


I don't remember things that way. I DO however remember Barr acting as the personal atty. of DT!

You'd think after the week he has had, he would keep a low profile and keep his mouth shut in the hopes that people might forget what a dick he is. Of course, it IS Ted Cruz and no one likes the sound of his voice better than Ted Cruz.

republicans lie, distort the truth, gaslight, blame, play victim, blame, lie . . . …

That's all they do while giving handouts to the rich, and ignore everyone else.

I thought he was show-boating over Holder, but he can't speak unless he has someone to knock down. Holder fit the bill and he certainly had to get Obama into it.

I suppose he feels his photo opportunities of helping his fellow citizens in Texas over the weekend gave him the confidence to speak as though he was an expert in all things legal. His arrogance is sickening and he creeps me out.

He led the effort to challenge electoral votes and continued to regurgitate the big lie even after the mob his words in the weeks preceding helped inflame. He's doing damage control by the outrage-of-the-day technique.

People died January 6 and he bears some responsibility for the attempt to overthrow the government by force. He can't distract me from that.
