Ted Cruz (R-TX) slammed U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland during an interview over the weekend, saying that he is the most <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-real-victims-are-new-yorkers-letitia-james-should-hear-them\/\" title=\"The Real Victims are New Yorkers, Letitia James Should Hear Them\">corrupt attorney general<\/a> in the country\u2019s history.<\/p>\n<p>Cruz made the remarks during a Sunday interview on Fox News\u2019 \u201cSunday Morning Futures\u201d with host Maria Bartiromo after President Joe Biden\u2019s Department of Justice announced that it would not press charges against Garland for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-anatomy-of-a-stolen-election-the-fraud-cannot-stand\/\" title=\"The Anatomy of a Stolen Election \u2013 The Fraud Cannot Stand\">contempt<\/a> of Congress.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReal quick, the significance of holding Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress,\u201d Bartiromo said. \u201cWhat does that get you? He says he\u2019s not intimidated, by the way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cruz responded: \u201cWell, this has been the most lawless and partisan Attorney General we\u2019ve ever seen. The number of people on planet earth who were surprised when the Biden DOJ said they will not prosecute Merrick Garland contempt citation is zero. No person out of the 8 billion people on the planet was surprised because this DOJ doesn\u2019t care.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnder Merrick Garland, DOJ exists to do two things, attack the Democrats\u2019 enemies and protect the Democrats\u2019 friends,\u201d he continued. \u201cThe degree to which DOJ has been weaponized trying to stop the voters from electing Donald Trump is ridiculous. And the degree to which DOJ is protecting Joe Biden from the evidence of his corruption and protecting his friends is shameful. The damage Merrick Garland has done to DOJ has no precedent in history and it\u2019s really sad.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>WATCH:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Under Merrick Garland, the DOJ only does two things:<\/p>\n<p>1.
