Kinzinger first made a request on Twitter when the Pelosi attack video was released:

The Seattle Times put together a list, which Kinzinger retweeted:

Ted Cruz responded by blowing his top and continuing to deny that Pelosi attacker was MAGA:

Kinzinger responded with evidence from the attacker himself:

Ted Cruz was wrong and remains wrong. The Paul Pelosi attacker was radicalized by MAGA. He wasn’t some leftist hippie as the Republican talking point claims.

More people should be more like Adam Kinzinger and not let Republicans like Cruz off the hook. The fact that Cruz continues to stick to the false story that the Paul Pelosi attacker was not influenced by MAGA shows that he and other Republicans have yet to feel consequences or be held accountable for their dangerous lies.

Public accountability has to start somewhere, and Adam Kinzinger is demonstrating how it can be done.
