Folks on the left have been freaking out at Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) for criticizing the “woke ad” put out by the military.

As we reported, Cruz cited a video contrasting the “wokeness” ad with the Russian military ad.

Holy crap.

Perhaps a woke, emasculated military is not the best idea…. https://t.co/8aVFMW98NM

So, some in the media and on the left accused Cruz of “attacking the military” — as opposed to attacking the harmful attack that Democratic policies have wrought and the harmful signals that they are sending out to countries like Russia and China who might decide to challenge us.

I’m enjoying lefty blue checkmarks losing their minds over this tweet, dishonestly claiming that I’m “attacking the military.”

Uh, no. We have the greatest military on earth, but Dem politicians & woke media are trying to turn them into pansies.

The new Dem videos are terrible. https://t.co/19pYGa8cYk

CNN’s Jake Tapper even pushed the garbage that Cruz was spreading “Russian propaganda,” as we reported earlier . CNN once again showing their “objective reporting.”

But even Tapper wasn’t as bad as MSNBC’s Brian Williams. Again, remember, Brian Williams is promoted as an objective journalist. But he’s hardly that. Here was his response to Cruz’s remarks, giving him the nickname “Kremlin Cruz.”

"Remember, as you watch this, just how much Ted Cruz dreams of being president of a country someday, perhaps not this country for reasons like this," Brian Williams says after Sen. Cruz was criticized for sharing Russian propaganda.

How is that journalism? Or even close to being an accurate description of what Cruz was saying? They know his point; they simply choose to twist it to attack him. It’s not news, but flat-out bias, acting like a Democratic operative.

Now, let’s remember these are the folks who spread Russian disinformation for the past four years to try to delegitimize the duly elected American president. Talk about spreading “Russian propaganda.” Their actions and failure at their jobs was hugely divisive and harmful to the country. There are still Democrats who believe the “big lie” of Russia collusion because of shamefully false and/or bad reporting.

But Williams picked the wrong guy to tangle with when he thought he could go after Cruz.

Cruz just decimated him in a tweet storm.

1/x Is there a more pitiful example of corrupt corporate media than Brian Williams?

He was fired as the anchor of NBC Nightly News for "misrepresenting events which occurred while he was covering the Iraq War in 2003.” Now, he’s a left-wing hack at MSNBC. https://t.co/0lGt3noUbQ

2/x Now, he’s throwing a hissy fit that I criticized the ridiculously woke video that the Biden admin put out. Williams accidentally told the truth, when he describes it as “a video meant to diminish the U.S. military.”

TRUE. That’s the problem. (The Pentagon put it out.)

3/x Now, with his trademark ignorant snark, he’s dubbed me “Kremlin Cruz.”

Three problems:

(1) I hate communists, my family was imprisoned & tortured by communists, and Brian is a shameless apologist for Russian (and Chinese and Cuban) communists.

— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) May 22, 2021

4/x (2) I was arguing that our military needs to be able to kick the ass of Russian soldiers. It’s Brian & his lefty comrades that are working relentlessly to diminish the effectiveness of the U.S. military—the finest fighting force on the face of the planet.

5/x And (3) JUST THIS WEEK Biden gave Putin a multi-billion-dollar gift, when he waived mandatory U.S. sanctions to allow Russia to build Nord Stream 2, a massive natural gas pipeline to Germany.

Who authored the sanctions that STOPPED NS2? That would be me.

— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) May 22, 2021

6/x Cover that, Brian.

But that would be actual news, something you don’t do.

Use your condescending wit to call Biden “Kremlin Joe”—he’s the one illegally giving billions to Putin.

But your corporate overlords wouldn’t let you.

Congrats, Brian. You are Pravda.
