Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, defended his objections during the Electoral College certification and said they had “nothing to do with this criminal terrorist assault” on the U.S. Capitol.

Cruz spoke to NBC affiliate KXAS-TV in Fort Worth, Texas, on Thursday per Fox News. Some Senate colleagues have accused Cruz and other congressional members of inciting Wednesday’s siege of the Capitol with their protests of the presidential election results.

“What I was doing is debating on the floor of the Senate election integrity,” Cruz said. “That has nothing to do with this criminal terrorist assault, which was wrong and needs to be prosecuted. It’s exactly the opposite. What I was doing is how you’re supposed to resolve issues in this country.”

Cruz spoke one day after rioters marched on the Capitol with the intent of halting Congress’ certification of the electoral voting results. President Donald Trump alleged that  voter fraud in several key battleground states resulted in Joe Biden winning the election.

  1. Ted Cruz, Mitch McConell and Lindsey Graham are all RINOs who should be voted out of office (if they’re not on the Declass list to be arrested).
