‘That’s A LIE’:Booker Vs Cruz Explodes In Senate Over Judge Threats | Booker RAGES Over Protest Laws

Senators Cory Booker and Ted Cruz engaged in a fiery exchange during a Senate Judiciary Subcommittee hearing on threats to federal judges. As Cruz accused Democrats of remaining silent during threats against conservative justices, Booker pushed back, calling the remarks “dangerous” and a “patent lie.” The tense back-and-forth highlighted rising political divisions over judicial safety, enforcement of protest laws, and the legacy of Trump-era rhetoric. The hearing, titled "The Supposedly Least Dangerous Branch," underscored growing concerns about the politicization of the judiciary and partisan responses to violence and intimidation. #BookerVsCruz #JudicialThreats #SenateClash #CoryBooker #TedCruz #FederalJudges #SCOTUS #PoliticalDivision #JudiciaryHearing #TrumpEra #DemocratsVsRepublicans #SenateFireworks #USPolitics #PartisanRift #LegalNews #SupremeCourt #DobbsDecision #JudgeSafety #SubcommitteeHearing #CapitolHill #LawAndOrder #DOJ #Protests #FreeSpeechDebate #SenateShowdown #BreakingNews #AmericanPolitics #JusticeSystem #Schumer #Kavanaugh #BookerStrikesBack #CruzVsBooker Also Read Zuckerberg’s testimony before social-media unsavvy gerontocrats & shrewd politicians :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mark-zuckerberg-testimony-congress-social-media-unsavvy-gerontocrats-ted-cruz-2675671.html?ref=DMDesc Ted Cruz will vote for former rival Donald Trump :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ted-cruz-will-vote-for-former-rival-donald-trump-2217831.html?ref=DMDesc GOP Convention turns ugly as Ted Cruz faces insults for not endorsing Trump :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/republican-convention-ted-cruz-faces-insult-not-endorses-trump-2158995.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.103~GR.125~
