Cruz alleged military was undermining its broader obligation to avoid political endorsements by responding to Tucker Carlson
Under Biden, the military is launching political attacks to intimidate Tucker Carlson & other civilians who criticize their policy decisions, Mr Cruz tweeted on Sunday, announcing that he has sent a letter to US secretary of defence Lloyd Austin.
Officials in uniform are being used for the campaign. Ive demanded a meeting with the Commandant of the USMC to put a stop to it, he said.
The Texas senator also attached a copy of the letter he wrote to Austin, alongside a tweet where he said that the Pentagon has been mobilising systematic, public attacks against television host Tucker Carlson in the last week that in substance, tone, and political resonance are inexplicably inappropriate".
According to Mr Cruz, the military was undermining its broader obligation to avoid political endorsements and controversy, for the sake of leftwing ideology and political expediency.
