Welcome, it is verdict with Senator Ted Cruz. Ben Ferguson with you. Senator, it was a lot of headlines that kind of came out of nowhere from the FBI director, Ray, and he had a lot to say in the sit-down interview with Brett Bear over at Fox News.

And I want to get your reaction, first off to the FBI director's inability to answer a very straightforward question about

January the 6th and possible FBI informants. Here is what he was asked and his lack of response.

It's something that we've talked about a lot on this podcast, which is that DOJ and the FBI have been profoundly politicized.

The last book I wrote, Justice Corrupted how the left has weaponized legal system.

And by the way, I would encourage folks go buy that book.

I detail how first Barack Obama and now Joe Biden have turned DOJ and the FBI

into partisan tools they use to attack their enemies.

On January 6th in particular, there are enormous questions about the responsibility,
