On Tuesday’s broadcast of FNC’s “Hannity,” Sen. Ted Cruz said there was both circumstantial and direct evidence of “corruption” linked to President Joe Biden regarding his family’s business dealings.“I think today was a very significant day,” he said. “Today, the House of Representatives announced their formerly opening an impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden. I think that’s exactly the right thing for them to do. I’ve been calling on the House to do this for many months now.
“You know, the latest talking points Democrats are trying to trot out in response to this impeachment inquiry is there is no direct evidence of Joe’s involvement in the corruption,” Cruz continued. “So they’ve pretty much given up on Hunter. Yeah, Hunter’s corrupt is the day is long, but there’s no direct evidence of Joe’s involvement. That’s what they’re saying. Now, that’s a flat-out lie, too, but let me break it down in two pieces.
Cruz explained, “But you know what? It’s pretty damn good evidence, circumstantial evidence. People are convicted and sent to jail every day of the week based on circumstantial evidence. Circumstantial evidence is you draw inferences from the circumstances. That’s compared to direct evidence. Direct evidence is testimony from someone who said I saw it snowing last night. That’s direct evidence. There’s at least two instances of direct evidence of Joe’s corruption.
“That is one of the critical elements of bribery, of the quid pro quo,” he added. “Quid pro quo, as you know, is Latin for this for that. The ‘that’ Joe Biden has admitted to that is direct evidence that he’s admitted to. The only question is, is there the ‘quid?’ Is there the $5 to 10 million of payments? Now, on that, there is circumstantial evidence.
