Sen. Cruz Rips Assistant AG Olsen: ‘Your Answer to Every Damn Question Is I Don’t Know!’

EXCERPT:

CRUZ: “You know, when we asked you why the Biden Department of Justice has such wildly disparate standards going after January 6 targeting some people who committed crimes of violence, and anyone who commits crimes of violence should be prosecuted, but also targeting a lot of non-violent individuals. We asked you why is it that you won’t target the rioters and terrorist who firebomb cities across this country? The answer we got from the Department of Justice was shameful. On October 22nd you came back and said, quote, the department has dedicated, investigative, and prosecutorial resources, commensurate with the significance of these events.' By significance, I guess it means the political benefit to the Biden White House, and I will tell you there are great many Americans who are understandably deeply concerned about the politicization of the Department of Justice under President Joe Biden. It has been 218 days since we sent you that letter. DOJ refused to answer the letter. Today when Senator Lee and I asked you about it your answer to every damn question is, I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know. You’re under oath. You may believe at the Department of Justice that you’re unaccountable to the American people, but that is not the case, and the wildly disparate standards are unacceptable.”
