They\u2019re trying to add new senators to the Senate so they keep control forever. They\u2019re trying to change voting in America so Democrats can never lose,\u201d Cruz stated. \u201cAnd they want to pack the U.S. Supreme Court with four left wing radicals. This is an assault fundamentally on the independence of the judiciary.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cruz also said anyone who disagrees with their plan is deemed a racist and Democrats keep playing the race card because it\u2019s the only one they have in their hand.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/ceo-of-cyber-ninja-former-ariz-secy-of-state-hold-press-conference-on-ballot-audit-in-phoenix\/\"> CEO OF Cyber Ninja, Former Ariz.
