NextImg:Ted Cruz Advocates for Ex-Trump Official to Spearhead Biden Corruption Probe - The Conservative Brief

In a recent episode of his podcast, “Verdict,” Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) made a bold proposition. He called for the appointment of former Director of Intelligence John Ratcliffe as special counsel to investigate alleged corruption within the Biden family.

This move, according to Cruz, would ensure an unbiased investigation, free from the influence of the current administration.

Cruz’s suggestion comes amid growing concerns about the impartiality of the ongoing investigations into the Bidens. The senator emphasized the need for a special counsel who isn’t a “patsy for the president and the party in power.”

His choice, John Ratcliffe, is a seasoned professional with a track record that speaks volumes about his capabilities.

“John Ratcliffe was former acting U.S. Attorney in Texas, was head of the Department of National Intelligence, was a U.S. congressman,” Cruz said.

“Now John is a conservative Republican. John is a real prosecutor.” His extensive experience in law enforcement and intelligence, coupled with his political independence, makes him an ideal candidate for the role, according to Cruz.

The senator went on to explain the potential impact of such an appointment.

“If John Ratcliffe were appointed special counsel to investigate Merrick Garland and others for lying under oath and obstruction of justice, it would scare the living crap out of Joe Biden, out of Hunter Biden, and every partisan Democrat because you’d actually have a prosecutor willing to follow the facts,” Cruz added.

Cruz’s comments came after he criticized Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss, recently appointed as special counsel in the Hunter Biden investigation. Cruz accused Weiss of “dragging his feet long enough that he gave a significant degree of immunity to everyone who broke the law here.”

Furthermore, Cruz questioned the legality of Weiss’ appointment.

“Under the DOJ rules, David Weiss’ appointment is illegal. The special counsel is designed to be someone from outside of government and that’s not an accident. So there’s a reason for that,” Cruz said.

He explained that a special counsel is typically appointed when there’s a conflict of interest within the Department of Justice.

When it’s not possible for the DOJ to conduct a fair investigation, someone from outside the government, preferably from the opposing political party, is appointed to ensure impartiality.

Senator Cruz’s call for a change in the special counsel is a testament to his commitment to ensuring justice and transparency in the face of alleged corruption.

His proposed solution, the appointment of John Ratcliffe, could potentially bring a new level of scrutiny and accountability to the ongoing investigations into the Biden family.
