Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) was on a roll during an ambassador nominee hearing.
Unfortunately, he cut got off.
Up to that point, however, this was must-see TV.
Don’t Answer
Senator Cruz was questioning someone you may remember from the Trump impeachment hearings.
George Kent was back in the hot seat and Cruz was trying to get some answers about Ukraine.
Cruz asked him, “Do you think Joe Biden holding a billion dollars hostage to force the Ukrainian government to fire the prosecutor that is investigating the corrupt oligarch who’s paying his son a million dollars a year?
“Did getting that prosecutor fired benefit that oligarch?”
Chair Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) tried to shut Cruz down, but he kept firing back.
Eventually, as you heard, Kent did answer the question.
He responded, “The prosecutor who was fired by the Ukrainian Parliament did nothing to investigate Zlochevsky and everything the Vice President Biden, the State Department and the U.S. Embassy did acted in good faith to reduce corruption and help the Ukrainians.”
Cruz all but called the main a liar, telling him that he was doing a good job of covering for Joe Biden.
