It’s amazing how no one actually answers his questions EVER
And that's how you know he's on the right track.
It's not so amazing. One should expect it by now.
What’s you expect from this peoples.
It’s because they are full of hate and wanna watch the world burn.
You have to stop talking to listen to the answers, Cruz is ignorant a cant stop filibustering…
Good job, Ted!!! But when will some actual consequences follow for these people who’ve caused all this?
When we have revolution or have national tax-strikes of people in their hundreds of thousands
There will not be anything more than this questioning. No accountability, ever.
Congress has no power to do anything to them. Congress isn't a prosecutorial body. Only the DoJ can prosecute and guess who controls that? Biden.
It's all theatre they are all crocks Cruz wants the gas shut down so he can sell his states gas to Europe.Is this worth war?
Theater.... nothing changes ... Americans grow poorer, politicians fill their pockets with cash, and foreigners pick over the bones of U.S.A.
“We have taken advantage of this tragedy”. Out of her own mouth. Let that sink in.
They cause this tragedy, not just taken advantage of it.
They (and she) wanted this to happen.
It so sad that we have leaders like her. So sad for us.
She is not answering because Biden will get gas from Maduro of Venezuela or Iran if, IF Europe decide to end russian oil and gas. Its a big if because Germany has indicated that the their current stoppages are not permanent. Biden is laying a very bad plan for the next catastrophe.
To her answer on whether Putin would attack or not, she indicated that he would not. She is out of touch and being political. Scholars have even pointed out the plans of Putin in take Ukraine have been announce by Putin himself a decade ago and if you choose to ignore it, Putin's very actions and words, in the past decade, spoke loudly that he would. Here is an excellent video of this........

and if your not patient enough to view the above video, here's a condensed video that is very good that shows historical events leading up to the Putin invasion.

its important to watch to the end of each video, which ever one you decide to watch.
We are going to have a very difficult and detructive future folks, I would prepare for it. Biden will lead us all down a terrible future.
not my leader sheis just an employee and likes russia
We elect REPRESENTATIVES. Appointed individuals are NOT leaders. 😡
This is the CCP getting in our schools and brainwashing people since the 80’s
specially march is celebrating women's month
I think it was not a MISTAKE it was deliberate. People learn from mistakes they do not keep doing them and denying it.
The Big Guy didn't get his monthly 10% so he let Ukraine get invaded.
Dems do what they do best...blame game. This Administration picks their staff to make history instead of those who are most qualified. This woman dodged his questions like the rest of Biden's chosen ones
Agree-no mistake-nobody can be this stupid!
if people leaned from their mistakes non of this would be happening.
I really believe Ukraine holds secrets to our election.
"Honorable" in front of the name Victoria Nuland makes me sick.
In 2014, neoconservative bureaucrat Victoria Nuland acted more like an activist despite her diplomatic position. She participated in anti-government demonstrations in Kyiv, Ukraine, alongside the then-US Ambassador to Ukraine. Their involvement led to the collapse of the Yanukovych government, which was pursuing a balanced foreign policy between Russia and NATO, albeit with pro-Russian inclinations.
When they don’t answer with a yes or no they are going to be deceptive
Yes very deceprive!! They all do it to! Judges, Blinken the ag and the border man! They never answer a thing. They drag out their answers and run the time out!!
@@robertagreenbank7613 yes, they should be made to answer either Yes or No.
if it were a court of law they would be held in contempt and jailed.
Seriously, we are watching OUR freedom being taken away and our useless goverment employees are grandstanding. One as dangerous as the next. ALL mouth no actions.They should be at GUTMO.
Everywhere there is CHAOS when US try to play police in the world. America FIRST. Trillions of dollars are being spend abroad while our veterans live in homelessness. This is totally fucked up system. AND YOU PAY FOR THE WARS!
They ALL need to go. Term limits and no insider trading. I bet 99% of politicians are bought after their first year
What exactly are freedoms that are being taken??
@@Mike-fo3qh Still in cave?
@@forexsavants6179 yet, just wondering in your head.
Man, between Nuland and Psaki, they are great at avoiding the questions with direct answers.
Senator Cruz please keeps standing up for our constitution I swear common sense has been lost in society and what few people are still trying to stand for our constitution I give thanks
Squeezing in her contradictions right at the buzzer; brilliant. Show these people for how wrong they’ve been from the outset.
None of these people can answer a yes or no question. She smiled when he ran out of time.
She smirked when she managed to run down the clock.
That is the whole idea of those nonsensical answers.
So as to not let the questioner get all the answers and or truthful answers.
Now if we did this to congress we would be held in contempt and arrested.
If she was a stooge she could answer sointily ?
Whew ! Saved by the bell !
She forgot the phrase.
" Thank you for the question "
That runs the clock out for them.
This started way back in 2014. Hes knows the truth. Whats stopping them from telling it?
Senator Cruz, you are more mature than I am. I wouldn't have been jumping up & down yelling "BULLSHIT".
Maybe that's partly the problem? Repubs are like jello.
@@BrassyBrunette And Libs are a Cracker Jack Prize
That's what needs to happen. We need to be aggressive. Our leaders need to be aggressive. The back and forth has clearly gotten us nowhere.
Yes, and this is an obvious foreshadowing of what 's to come... NATO and the US using chemical weapons against the Syrian people, but then they blamed Assad for it, sounds just as familiar as what they [US and NATO] did in Syria... You can be damn sure NATO agitators are planning the same deadly nonsense for parts of Ukraine, to then blame on Russia. I don't support this garbage conflict in any way, but whatever the truth may be, it needs to be exposed.
@@amadeus.k331 it's disgusting
This woman can't answer a solid yes or no to save her life. Edge around the truth.
All democrats
It is funny you think that is what the point of these hearing are. This is theater for the masses. It seems to work on some people.

That shouldn’t surprise you.
Mr. Cruz once again did his job!! Kudos. However, I'm so sick of these people doing nothing other than refusing to answer, smiling and waiting for time to expire. This country is in real trouble and we the citizens all know it.
I knowticed it too. November can't come soon enough. I want all of these leftist fuxxs out. They have utterly ruined this country.

@@paulbentley1705 Yeah, America is just another schidt hole country complete with coups, fraudulent elections, corrupt politicians, incompetent Presidents, civil wars...
He didn't do shit, none of them ever do. They just pretend like they do but nothing ever happens.
It's a big machine, they are all together in there, they just create an illusion of choice and opposition.
Under Secretary of State Victoria Nuland has recently been heard on a audio recording stating who she would prefer in office and then just a few weeks later there was a new president and Ukraine
Nuland is bad news for the World !!!
Isn't it odd that the Chairperson always cuts the "witness" off when they get caught lying?
Dennis, the dark lord requires it. Crazy stuff, yes sir.👍

@@ienjoymy1stammendment471 Me to!!!!!
Joe Biden and his family are corrupt and compromised to the core. There is no other explanation for the decisions that have come out of this administration. Not once has Joe Biden made decisions to benefit those he is supposed to represent.
I don't even care if it's trump, Biden and his puppet masters needs to go.
Make no mistake, these are not "mistakes."
as a European, it is disgusting to hear our "allies" talking about Europe as their backdoor. As fast as possible, we need to distance ourself from this toxicity. Utterly disguested, and I feel sorry for the American people for having a leadership so corrupted and even open about it.
Everyone in this administration is a certified fool
The Dems and the manipulative administrative state are Machiavellian and not to be underestimated.
Maybe Europe and the US could use the energy provided by their green industries…….and the laughter of elves and fairy’s.

Bottom line: We’re doomed with this SORRY, WEAK, NON-COMMON SENSE Administration! Thank you Ted Cruz you spoke for many, many Americans having to bite our tongues! 💯🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Yup, what a shame!
Any other time these people have things to say but when they’re put in front of a committee they get all dumbfounded and can never seem to give a straight forward answer. What a joke this world is anymore. SMH. 😞
Tough countries deserve a a tough leader. Sadly we have this
JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION LADY!!!!!
There are NO MISTAKES being made. It was done on purpose.
Exactly, they knew damn well Russia would invade...wanted it
But why? Someone is making millions of dollars.
@@mariagarcia4160 it may be more complicated than just making money. I think they want to screw things up pretty bad so as to increase the amenibility of a re-set.
Her smile at the end, let’s you know her complete lack of seriousness!!!
My same thought.
What a disgrace
Holding the court in contempt is serious felony. She deserves to be given 300 days right off the bat by Senator Cruz , and then add another 600 days to that every time she raises an eyebrow.
Mr Cruz, I am an old man of 57 years and I have never seen things this bad in my whole life.
So sick of this administration not answering questions, they should be in jail
Impossible to make that many "mistakes"
and still call it a mistake.
It’s not a mistake. It’s criminal negligence. This administrations agenda is more important to them than America is to them.
The word is treason
This woman was in Ukraine causing conflict in 2014. She was in the Obama administration and I heard her promise 5 billion in funding going to nazi group's killing the citizens in Donestk and Crimea. The snakes have been slithering for year's.
Spot on!
Thank God for Senator Cruz. I think this administration has to be shamed into doing what is right.
Love Senator Cruz!
Why can't they just answer a #$#* question?
John, the problem is that they are shameless!
I'm not a fool, so I'm not a fan of Rafeal Cruz. He supported TFG who surrendered to the Taliban and released 5,000 murderous Taliban fighters from the jails of Afghanistan so they were able to assist in the takeover of the country and disrupt the evacuation of our soldiers from their soil. Plus, Rafeal and the rest of the rightwingers are in love with Putin and the biggest Putin supporter in the world, Donald J. Trump.
@@brud1729 Don’t sell yourself short you are a fool

Thank you Sen. Cruz for shinning a light on this deceitful administration.
They need to shut their lights out.

@@josephkostinko739 , true. I like principled constitutional conservatives. There are so few of them in congress.
Much respect for Senator Cruz!!!
Let her answer!
She was a direct player in the coup d'etat in Ukraine in 2014.... Leaked call "F**k the EU. "
Putting these types of people in power is a strategy. These types of people don’t stand up to wrong doing or corruption; they support it and enrich themselves in the process. 3rd world ways…
EXACTLY
Exactly
I absolutely love this guy in every video I watch. Standing up for America. Defending freedom, bald eagles, and GOD BLESS THE USA!!!
Isn't it ironic nobody can answer a question? Avoiding to answer!!
What a wonderful person
I do like the way Senator Ted Cruz speaks it out......
demanding a straight answer...
but we know they wont.. its fun to watch them squirm.
Ha! funny stuff.
did you watch him on CNBC this morning? he was so evasive even joe kernen, as big a gop shill as there is , got frustrated with him. He's a jagoff, old raphael is.
except his question is 3 mins long. If he did not talk so much, we could get more answers.
Cruz stop Putin's pipe so he is responsible for this war.
Ted Cruz doesn't want an "answer" - he's just trying to pull a stunt like always. He doesn't really want to help.
They always tiptoe around answering any questions.
Two Ton Tessie behind Cruz needs to do her homework in her office rather than on the dais before TV cameras.
Love Ted Cruz! He don't play, he is for the people!!!!
They are all puppets. Follow the money and you'll find who's pulling the strings
When buyden was " elected " , I expected that he would be a complete and utter disaster. He has exceeded my expectations. Let's Go Brandon.
Ted you are awesome. You tell it like it is.

Give em hell ted
Not only did she not answer the question,but she laughed!
YOU'RE FIRED!
She just got saved by the bell, if she did say it Ted Cruz was right to mention that fact, but yet again the tough questions get cut by the bell.
Go Ted Go!!!
Freighters simply cannot match a pipeline, and Europe shut down their nuclear power plants which CREATED their dependence on Russia to fuel their power plants. Other European countries depend on imported electricity from Ukrainian nuclear power plants, which makes those a target for Russia to hold. Europe needs energy independence just as much as the United States does.
Russia is Europe...
Cruise doesn't want Europe to be energy independent, he wants them dependent on U S LNG ( a ridiculous way to fuel industrialised economies compared to simply piping it in from next door, via a pipeline that's already built).
it would be nice if the US allows the rest of the word the same what they want for them self. to make their own decisions. being dependent on US LNG is worst than being dependent on russian gas.
@@0815419 I don't know about worse; more expensive, probably, and not actually possible, certainly (there isn't enough dock capacity for LNG in all of Europe to replace the Russian pipelines; much less enough LNG ships to haul that much!). Re-activating the shut-down European nuclear power-plants (and/or building new nuclear power plants, if there are safety concerns about old plants), is the *only* way Europe can reduce dependence on outside powers.
Frankly, I suspect European citizens were manipulated into shutting down their nuclear plants *just to increase vulnerability.*
@@davidgoodnow269
no, populations react different to nuclear power in europe.
belgians, french, swedish and birttish seems ok with it, others like germans, dutch , spanish and italians always had a hate-relationship with it.
fukushima was the tipping point in some countries.
for europe, this seems quite stupid to think national about nuclear power. if one goes up in belgium, then the fallout will cover germany, france and the netherland.
anyways, i rather depend on russia than the US on gas. apart from the price and the fracking, russia is a european country, a trustworthy business partner and the lesser evil.
@@0815419 I can see that, at least as long as President Putin is in charge. He's smart enough to deal fairly and honestly. The long-term issue with a dependency on Russia is--who comes after him? There are *plenty* of people who remember living in the Warsaw Pact under a *much* less friendly, if equally *reliable,* Russia!
As for Fukushima, I remember that. I was one of *many* who volunteered to help with clean-up, though my application was not accepted despite my certifications and background, because my local support fund-raising fell short.
But there's minimal risk of a tidal wave hitting a reactor in the Alps!
Italy worried about seismic or volcanic activity I can understand, but is Germany prone to those problems? Are German engineers inadequate to the task of designing safe reactors and maintaining and running them as safely as the French? This is *silliness,* nuclear power plants are still the *cleanest* and *safest* form of electricity generation!
This lady so out of it how did she get nominated for her position
Incompetence is rewarded in government
Because she was directly involved the first time with Ukraine and overthrowing their democratically elected government under Obama and Biden when they helped stage a freaking coup and then discussed who they wanted to be the president there. This is all by design
Biden ought to be accountable for this but no one does anything
WOW, If I was Cruz I would keep asking her Yes or No is the only answer that I want. Then you can explain. OMG.
" I don't actually know how it works"
That's the answer most every Biden appointee would give if they were honest. Instead they just laugh.
Nuland is an Obama loyalist like most of Biden’s admin. They know exactly what they are doing.
Yep, and it isn't over yet worldwide. When it takes so long for democratic government to correct their mistakes, the ripples of loss of faith in the American people's concern for the world will be lasting. Even though it is the regime that caused these events their mistakes cost US.
They are purposefully destroying this country. We were sold out long ago.
Remember, this is from March 8, 2022
And what you have to do with North Stream which is a pipe between to independent countries? Like WTF!
I'll be so glad when November comes around and the Republicans take both sides of government house. And we can go back to paying 2 dollars a gallon.
Watching from the UK I hope your right.
Hopefully
Nuland more word salad just like VP Harris
Go Ted! We need MORE Ted Cruz’s
Go get 'em Senator

Why can't anyone answer a question??!!! So freaking evasive!
The answer is always a story…a simple yes or no.
Call your reps,it probably won't do any good,but try anyway,demand the resignation of Biden/Harris.
How can Cruz be so wrong?
All talk no action
Why do democrats find it so hard to answer a straight question with a straight answer???
Because morons like Cruz would rather speak over them just to get their base all excited on CZcams.
Cos they all bent and corrupt devils! 👿👿👿
