When i was a kid, my dad used to ask me, when we faced oppression in cuba, i had a place to flee to. If we lose our freedom here, where do we go . That is why the men and women are gathered here today, because not one of us is prepared to lose our freedom. We are standing in defense of liberty, the constitution, in defense of america. [applause] and with that im happy to answer any question you like. Thank you very much, senator. As you know, there will be a vote coming up shortly for a new attorney general. I would like to know if you can tell us what your vote will be for or against loretta lynch. Senator cruz my vote on Loretto A Lynch is going to be unambiguously no. [applause] let me tell you why very briefly. I sit on the Senate Judiciary committee. I took a very active part in ms. Lynchs confirmation. When she was nominated, to be honest, i very much wanted to support the nomination. Eric holder has been the most partisan, abusive attorney general in the history of our country.
