United States Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) claimed on Thursday that this evening's premier hearing revealing the findings of the House of Representatives' Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol is nothing but a political ruse orchestrated by the "idiocy" of the progressive left.
The bipartisan panel, which was established last summer, has interviewed a thousand witnesses who provided documents as well as thousands of hours of eyewitness testimony to what went on before, during, and after the violent insurgency that left five people dead and American democracy on the brink of collapse. Hundreds of individuals who participated in the riot have been arrested and charged with crimes.
