TED IS EXACTLY WHO YOU THOUGHT HE WAS:
Audio of Cruz's talk with Fox host sheds light on plan to challenge 2020 results (Jacqueline Alemany and Sarah Ellison, April 25, 2023, Washington Post)
Wouldn't the time be better spent investigating his Dad's involvement in the JFK shooting, his avatar's other favorite conspiracy?The Jan. 2, 2021, recording, provided to The Washington Post by Grossberg's attorney, largely mirrors previous reports and public statements made by Cruz about efforts to overturn the election results. But the tape featuring a previously private conversation among Cruz, Grossberg and Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo on the push to deny the certification of Joe Biden's victory on Jan. 6, 2021, sheds new light on the scope of Cruz's scheming to assist Donald Trump in overturning Biden's victory.Cruz says in the recorded conversation that he successfully organized 11 senators to object to the electoral certification as the mechanism to establish a commission. Cruz was the first senator to object to the electoral college results, joining Rep. Paul A. Gosar (R-Ariz.) in challenging Arizona's electoral certification. The Post has previously reported on Cruz's proposal of delaying the certification of the electoral college results to spark a 10-day "audit" that could enable GOP state legislatures to overturn the election results.
