Dummycrats Attempt ‘Gotcha’ Of Ted Cruz
Leftists Fail Miserably To Film Undercover
Project Veritas it certainly is not
Steve Watson
A leftist group attempted to ‘gotcha’ Senator Ted Cruz by secretly filming him and then claiming they got him to agree that he wants to defund the FBI, a patently false claim.
The group, called MeidasTouch, tweeted out the following footage:
NEW UNDERCOVER: Ted Cruz agrees to defunding the FBI, says there needs to be “a complete housecleaning that happens at the FBI.” pic.twitter.com/w5aXCtAehH

As the woman is talking, Cruz is nodding to show he is listening to her, but when she states “I think it’s imperative that you really have to defund the FBI after all the witch hunts that are going on,” Cruz shakes his head and responds “It is horrific the abuse of power at the FBI, and it’s wrong. And there needs to be a complete housecleaning that happens at the FBI.”
The group pathetically claimed that Cruz “nodded in agreement” at the need to defund the FBI.
The Senator himself responded to the video, noting that he merely said what he believes:
Leftie twitter is gonna lie—it’s what they do—but every word I said is true:
– the FBI’s raid was a horrific “abuse of power”;
– there needs to be “a complete housecleaning” at FBI;
– we need “real oversight” from Congress.
All absolutely true!

Cruz’s communications advisor Steve Guest also responded to the video:

Obviously, @MeidasTouch didn’t watch the video before tweeting. Instead, they’re just brazenly lying.
If you want to catch someone out on a secret camera, it’s probably not best to do it at a public appearance where the person is speaking in public with cameras and journalists all around them.
Project Veritas it certainly is not.

Nowhere in this video does Cruz actually agree with the idea of defunding the FBI – or say anything about defunding at all. She proposes defunding; he pivots to “housecleaning.” (And if you’re gonna try to interpret a head-nod followed by a head-shake, that’s some weak sauce.)
Proof definitive that not only can leftists not meme for their lives, they also cannot undercover investigate because they do not understand the core aspects of what these things are.

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
