Ted Cruz Battles Kaitlan Collins: You Can’t Tell the Motive Yet of Charlie Kirk’s Killer? CNN Should Not Engage in Misinformation

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
Moment, because you said a lot there, and we don‘t have a motive yet. We don‘t know yet. We‘re waiting. Obviously, we‘ve heard what the governor has had to say with the FBI director.
>> Come on, we don‘t have a motive yet. We know we don‘t. we don‘t have a motive yet.
>> What‘s happening with.
>> Really? That‘s CNN‘s position. He just happened to fire the gun in celebration. You can‘t tell the motive, senator.
>> That‘s not what I said. And I said law enforcement hasn‘t laid out a motive. They‘ve laid out a lot of evidence here of these messages. And what. They have said.
>> They said that he was a left-wing activist who hated Charlie Kirk. Pardon?
>> Senator, with all due respect, you know exactly what I‘m saying. I‘m not arguing with you politically. I‘m saying that law enforcement has not put a specific motive. You know, that there‘s a difference of what they‘re putting in a legal.
>> They have.
>> That‘s what you‘re talking about, and you‘re not even.
>> We‘re not.
>> Even arguing about the facts here.
>> You just said is is false. Senator. Caitlyn. No, Caitlyn. Facts. Hold on a second. Let me answer your statement, because what you said is factually.
>> With all due respect.
>> Law enforcement.
>> All due.
>> Respect, you‘re you‘re putting facts. Okay. Go ahead.
>> Give your speech. And I want to get back to. We just laid out the facts.
>> You just said law enforcement has not laid out a motive that is objectively.
>> False. Attorney general.
>> That is objectively false.
>> They have not.>> Said a concrete motive.>> Exactly what it.>> Was
CNN should not be engaged in misinformation Caitlyn, answer my question. Have you seen the polling that shows the vast majority of Democrats what I this murderer is a Republican and a Trump supporter. Have you seen that polling?
>> Let me get back to my questions, though, senator, because the question here.
>> You‘re not going to answer that question. Are you going to answer you‘re saying about investigations.
>> That you‘d like to see.
>> So so you‘re not going.
>> To answer? I‘m the one asking the questions here. And the question.
>> We‘re having a conversation. I understand that that you want to say things that are factually false, and then you don‘t actually want right-wing groups. Also, you don‘t actually want the facts laid out, okay, give your speech.
>> That‘s not true. Senator.
>> I‘m asking you a question. Go ahead. I don‘t know what your question is because we have said they believe in England, so I can‘t hear what you‘re saying.
>> You said that you believe that left-wing groups should be investigated. You want to know where the financing is coming from for protests. Do you believe that they should also be looking into right-wing groups as well, or do you believe it should only be limited to that look, I believe anyone engaged in acts of violence should be prosecuted and go to jail.
>> But I will say there has been an enormous amount in CNN has been guilty of this, of both sides ism, of saying, gosh, both sides are violent and understand, yes, there is some violence on both sides, but it is the left that overwhelmingly celebrates this. It is leftist that have been celebrating. You look at blue sky and it is a cesspool of leftists celebrating the murder of Charlie Kirk. You look at recent polling that shows, over 50% of Democrats saying violence against Elon Musk is justified, violence against Donald Trump is justified. You you look at Democrats who do things like what Kamala Harris did of giving money and urging people to give money to bail out violent rioters and antifa riots. It is only one side that justifies this violent violence. My view is if you commit acts of violence, you should be prosecuted. And so, yes, we should follow the money. Anyone funding acts of violence we should go after. But this is a left-wing problem.
