DOJ's Special Counsel Jack Smith has asked to acquire some recordings from Fox whistleblower Abby Grossberg.

U.S. Senator Ted Cruz speaks during a Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation hearing to examine advancing next-generation aviation technologies, on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, on March 29, 2023.The tapes contain evidence of the Republican senator discussing blocking the certification of the 2020 election with Fox News's Bartiromo, who joined the network in 2013 and became an advocate forduring his presidency, often giving him unchallenged interviews.

In the tape dated January 2, 2021, which Melber played on MSNBC, Cruz can be heard saying:"I think that the country deserves to have a credible assessment of these claims and what the evidence shows and the mechanism to try to force that is denying certification on the sixth." The tape well precedes the Jan. 6 Capitol riots, and exposes Cruz's apparent plot to overthrow the 2020 election's result by blocking the certification of's victory on January 6 and establishing a commission to investigate alleged claims of fraud.

"As we were looking at this Jan. 6 certification, all of the options that were being discussed were problematic," Cruz said."And so I wanted to find a path that was consistent with the Constitution and the law, and that addresses these very real serious claims."
