Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) delay in sending the articles of impeachment to the Senate showed that Democrats “are in a total panic.”

“Her threat to the Senate is ‘Do exactly what I want or I’m not going to impeach the president, I’m not going to send over the impeachment articles,’” Cruz said during an appearance on Fox News on Thursday. “My attitude is, OK, throw us in that brier patch. Don’t send them. That’s all right. We actually have work to do. Some of us are showing up fighting for more jobs, for higher wages, for the working men and women who elected us.”
