Members of the House and Senate were on the Senate floor this morning for the certification of President-elect Donald Trump's electoral victory, and CNN's Jake Tapper was on hand to give color commentary. He was stumbling along just fine until he got to video of Sen. Ted Cruz making the rounds. Tapper just thought he'd quickly add that Cruz was "one of the main individuals who helped cause what happened four years ago."

… an emergency 10-day audit of the election returns in the disputed states." This would have been completed before Jan. 20, so the inauguration would not have been delayed. It actually didn't have anything to do with the vice president — just read CNN's own reporting on it back then!

… this is blatantly false and if Jake actually read his own outlet's reporting he'd know it.

So Cruz somehow caused people to storm the Capitol on January 6. That's news to us.

Cruz won't sue. Not because he wouldn't win, but because this is just what he expects from CNN and brushes it off.
