Brennan to Cruz Blocking Biden Nominees: Aren’t You Playing Politics with Our Nat’l Security?

‘Senator Murphy said talking with you is like dealing with a terrorist’

EXCERPT:

BRENNAN: "I want to ask you about — you're blocking a number of President Biden's nominees to national security posts. The White House said it's an unprecedented effort of obstruction, Senator Murphy said, talking to you is like dealing with a terrorists. Aren't you playing politics with national security?
CRUZ: "Well, actually, quite the opposite. I'm trying to get President Biden to stop acquiescing and surrendering to our enemies. In China, I introduced an amendment to say that we should not purchase any green vehicles or solar panels made with slave labor in communist China, in concentration camps. Every Democrat but Joe Manchin voted against it. On Russia, one of the first things Joe Biden did was surrender to Vladimir Putin on Nord Stream 2. He gave Putin a multibillion-dollar pipeline, a pipeline that we had stopped. I had authored bipartisan sanctions legislation. Democrats and Republicans overwhelmingly supported my legislation, and we killed that pipeline dead. Joe Biden came in and surrendered.”
