Oh, how the tables might be turning!
As Biden spearheads the prosecution of former President Trump, a rising chorus of voices is pointing the spotlight back on Biden himself.
“Lock him up!” they cry, borrowing the familiar chant that was often directed at political rivals during the Trump era.
And the questions swirling around President Biden are no minor matters — they’re significant allegations that could, if proven true, make the uproar around Trump look like small potatoes.
With allegations of bribery involving foreign oligarchs, Senator Ted Cruz is taking the lead in vocalizing what many are whispering behind closed doors.
Drawing from Biden’s own words in a past interview, Cruz paints a picture of potential quid-pro-quo — a significant charge that, if confirmed, could have dire consequences for the current President.
Is this the real reason behind Biden’s aggressive push to prosecute Trump?
Is this a tactical smokescreen to divert attention from his own possible misdeeds?
Such questions hang heavily in the air as Cruz makes his case to the American people.
If Biden did indeed receive millions in exchange for official favors, the repercussions could be monumental.
Ted Cruz calls for impeachment inquiries into Joe Biden, Merrick Garland & Mayorkas.
He also said that if the allegations are true, Joe Biden should go to jail 👀

If Joe Biden took millions of dollars for getting the prosecutor in Ukraine fired who was investigating Burisma, he needs to be impeached, removed from office, and thrown in jail.

With the stark declaration that Biden could, and should, face prison if found guilty, Cruz isn’t pulling any punches.
And neither is the broader conservative base, who are rallying around these allegations with growing fervor.
One can’t help but wonder: as Biden attempts to prosecute Trump, is he inadvertently drawing attention to his own potential transgressions?
Time, and a thorough investigation, will tell.
The Washington Examiner has the full details on Cruz’s comments:
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said the evidence against President Joe Biden is “growing and growing” regarding bribery allegations involving foreign oligarchs.
“Bribery is paying someone something of value in exchange for an official favor,” Cruz told Hannity. “Joe Biden has confessed to it in a video interview.”
“He said he went to Ukraine, he held hostage a billion dollars in U.S. loan guarantees and demanded of the Ukrainian government: ‘Fire the prosecutor that is investigating Burisma and investigating the oligarch,’” Cruz said of Biden.
“The only question was,” Cruz continued, “did they pay $10 million for him to do so?”
Cruz said that if it’s found out that Biden did receive such a payment, he should be “removed from office. He should be prosecuted.”
“And he should go to prison,” Cruz added. “He should share a cell with Hunter for corrupting the government of the United States.”
The promise of a return to “normalcy” echoed in the ears of many Americans as they cast their votes for Joe Biden.
They sought stability, a respite from the turbulence that seemed to mark the previous years.
Yet, as the Biden administration’s tenure unfolds, many are left wondering if what we’re witnessing is a return not to normalcy, but rather to the same old politics-as-usual.
And, as history has shown time and again, politics as usual too often means corruption as usual.
It’s a grim scene: while ordinary Americans grapple with surging inflation and a shaky economy, the corridors of power seem to be awash with money – but not just any money.
Allegedly, millions from foreign oligarchs, channeled to the Biden family during the previous administration.
While families across the nation tighten their belts and question their economic future, tales of lucrative deals with Ukrainian oligarchs fill the headlines.

Sen @tedcruz: "Did they pay $10 million for him to do so? If so, Joe Biden is guilty of bribery… if that is the case, Joe Biden should be impeached, he should be removed from office, he should be prosecuted and he should go to prison." https://t.co/ufPXbub3Is

Senator Ted Cruz’s explosive comments on Fox News have amplified these concerns.
Drawing on newly released evidence from the Republican-led House Oversight and Accountability Committee, Cruz pulls no punches.
He paints a picture of Hunter Biden as a middleman, allegedly facilitating official favors from his father in exchange for cash.
And if these allegations prove accurate, the implications for President Biden could be catastrophic.
Newsweek confirms Cruz’s explosive comments:
Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas said President Joe Biden should “share a cell” with his son Hunter Biden as more findings are released by the House.
Speaking with Sean Hannity on Fox News, Cruz said the “evidence is growing and growing” that Hunter Biden sold “official favors from his father Joe Biden.”
His comments came as the Republican-led House Oversight and Accountability Committee released new evidence this week alleging that Hunter Biden and his business associates received millions of dollars from foreign oligarchs and sources while his father was vice president under Barack Obama.
“Bribery is paying someone something of value in exchange for an official favor. Joe Biden has confessed to it in a video interview,” Cruz said after Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley released an FD-1023 document containing a confidential FBI informant’s unverified claim that the Biden family made a Ukrainian oligarch pay them $10 million.

“He said he went to Ukraine,” Cruz added. “He held hostage a billion dollars in U.S. loan guarantees and demanded of the Ukrainian government: ‘Fire the prosecutor that is investigating Burisma and investigating the oligarch.’
“The only question was, did they pay $10 million for him to do so? If that is the case, Joe Biden is guilty of bribery, Hunter is guilty of selling, bribes, selling official favors from his father.”
Cruz continued his analysis of the situation, saying the president “should be impeached, he should be removed from office, he should be prosecuted, and he should go to prison and he should share a cell with Hunter for corrupting the Government of the United States.”
Biden’s previous confessions, taken in this new context, add fuel to the fire.
Cruz’s insinuation that Joe Biden leveraged his power as Vice President, pressuring Ukraine with a billion-dollar loan guarantee to further his family’s financial interests, is damning.
And if proven true?
It’s more than just politics as usual.
It’s corruption at its core.
With cries for impeachment and prison ringing out, Biden’s promise of a stable, “normal” administration feels more distant than ever.
And as the saga unfolds, Americans are left to ponder a distressing possibility: in the midst of a struggling economy and rising global challenges, could the very foundations of our government be compromised?
Only time, and rigorous investigation, will reveal the full truth.
