Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz rattled Joe Biden’s U.S. district court nominee Dale Ho over his past radical statements.

During his confirmation hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Cruz asked Ho to explain why he described himself in the past as “a wild-eyed Leftist” and someone “accused sometimes of seeing discrimination everywhere” he looked.

“Senator Cruz, I think the keyword in that quote is ‘accused’,” Ho responded. “I think I was characterizing how others have caricatured myself.”

Cruz went on to quote a statement from Ho in 2017, where he called his hatred towards conservatives a source of “moral clarity” that would “motivate the long hours needed to get the work done.”
