Ted #Cruz was among more than 30 senators urging US Attorney General Merrick #Garland to appoint Davis #Weiss as special counsel to lead investigations into Hunter #Biden.
That was 19 September 2022. Less than a year later, on 11 August, Mr Garland announced that Mr Weiss would receive special counsel status.
But the Republican senator from Texas is now calling the appointment of the same person he was urgently recommending a “wildly inappropriate” pick to lead the investigation.
“This appointment is camouflage and it’s cover-up. I think it’s disgraceful,” he told Fox News on 13 August.
