Ted Cruz blasts PolitiFact as 'lying liars' for Supreme Court fact-check
Fox News
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, took PolitiFact to task on Tuesday for rating "False" his claim that Republicans did not try to "rig the game" in the Supreme Court, which he has accused Democrats of doing by seeking to expanding its size to 13.
"You didn't see Republicans when we had control of the Senate try to rig the game," Cruz is quoted as saying on April 22. "You didn't see us try to pack the court." In the fact check, PolitiFact concluded that Cruz's claim was "false" because Republicans blocked former President Obama's Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland in 2016 following the death of Justice Antonin Scalia, and then-Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell "raced" to get Amy Coney Barrett confirmed before the 2020 election. Thus, PolitiFact says that Republicans "were able to exercise their power in ways that benefited their party’s goals."
