I'm With Jason Whitlock---So Good to See Tucker Brutally Confront Ted Cruz

 IT WAS A RARE, POIGNANT TV MOMENT TONIGHT  WHEN TUCKER CARLSON CONFRONTED ON HIS SHOW Senator Ted Cruz over Cruz's characterization of last year's January 6 Capitol rioters as 'violent terrorists.'  

Cruz evidently contacted Carlson aferwards asking to come on his show to  'explain'  his earlier mischaracterization of January 6 rioters as terrorists.   Cruz made a weak attempt to cover his tracts, but Tucker wasn't buying it.  said he didn't believe Cruz.  As the interview ended and Cruz, whom I have liked and supported,  weakly apologized, I thought Cruz had probably dug himself further in a political grave.  Jason  Whitlock who followed Cruz on the show congratulated Tucker for holding this elected official accountable. Whitlock said he was proud of Carlson, and so am I.

We need more, much more of this kind of interviewing.  And while both agreed Cruz was courageous to come on, it's hard to believe he did little to reverse the hard feelings engendered  with conservatives over his earlier remarks.
