Senators Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley condemned Joe Biden on Friday after he claimed they were guilty of spreading President Trump’s ‘big lie’ about election fraud
“I think the American public has a good clear look at who they are. They’re part of the Big Lie” Biden said.
He said the tactic of ‘repeating the lie’ reminded him of Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels. “Goebbels [said] in the Great Lie, you keep repeating the lie, repeating the lie.”

In a statement Hawley called on Biden to retract his remarks describing them as “utterly shameful.”
Fox News reports: ‘The Big Lie’ was a term coined in Nazi Germany. “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it” Joseph Goebbels, Reich minister of propaganda of Nazi Germany, once said.
“Really sad,” Cruz wrote on Twitter of Biden’s remarks. “At a time of deep national division, President-elect Biden’s choice to call his political opponents literal Nazis does nothing to bring us together or promote healing.”
“This kind of vicious partisan rhetoric only tears our country apart,” he continued.
Hawley fired back with his own statement.
“President-elect Biden has just compared me and another Republican Senator to Nazis. You read that correctly. Think about that for a moment. Let it sink in. Because I raised questions in the format prescribed by the laws of the United States about the way elections were conducted in the state of Pennsylvania, just as Democrats did about other states in 2001, 2005, and 2017, he is calling me a Nazi,” Hawley stated.
The first-term senator further called the presdient-elect’s comments “undignified, immature, and intemperate behavior.”
Hawley then offered Biden some advice. “He should act like a dignified adult and retract these sick comments. And every Democrat member of Congress should be asked to disavow these disgusting comments.”
Cruz and Hawley led efforts in the upper chamber to contest some states’ electoral college results for Biden. Cruz called for an emergency 10-day audit of voter fraud allegations, though such cases had been settled in federal court. Both continued their call to reject the certification of the results even after a pro-Trump riot that sent lawmakers into hiding and left five dead caused others to withdraw their disputes.
The president-elect said the pair of senators were “as responsible” as the president for peddling debunked election fraud claims.

And now you see how you e been deceived all.of your life by history Now your seeing how irs been written and constructed and by exactly the same forces principalities and powerful families for centuries .Now you know the truth .Always the sane ,always the opposite
“though such cases had been settled in federal court.”
This phrase is a deception.
Federal courts didn’t look at ANY of the evidence of vote fraud – instead they threw out the lawsuits using legal technicalities.
The people that rioted were Antifa psychos, not Trump supporters.
This is a poorly written article echoing lamestream talking points.
Typical Democrat. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/8c00f5a135d3ecf589574c5eb42fab34ae6cc075edd69a4dffff51decd7eb8f5.jpg
The “big lie” is that worthless POS Beijing Biden.
Remember I commented qbput the pretend Trimp supporters I saw on video at the Capitol where the Pelisi is Satan dign was on the police windscreen? Well now I’ve heard from people who were there ,and I was right They say there was possibly half a million people at the event and that Trump was delivering a speech about 10 to 15 minutes walk away from the Capitool building Apparently mobs of people left as he was speaking and took off to the building which was closed off at the front lawn and actially the video I saw on you tube which gave the impression there was very few people there at all ,was actually those few people who had already breached security by crossing over the lawned area and entering the buildings front yard .So mu instincts that they were pretend atrump supporters seems to have been correct and you tube was definitely in on tbe while thing Absolutely With hindsight of how they have released the videos of the days events here in Australia they were absolutely co ordination a scene.The other videos I saw which as I said gave the impression that it was people arriving byt was actually the end of the day and people leaving ,none of them knew anything about any violence At all .So it was only relatively small number out of the half a million involved ,and actually even breached the lawned are where they werent supposed to cross. Those that did witness the violence said they suspect it was antifa elements and that the police were very much protagonists in it all too .They certainly created a violent atmosphere very quickly. And yet they allowed the numbers who breached security and entered the restricted area to grow which they could have very easily avoided and they could have sent the police that were inside out much earlier yo ensure the violence never occurred at all .So there you have it. As the mib or mafia as they call them lately always say ,If you want to know whose guilty of any crime just look to see who profits the most from it And they know how they play the game .
