Abby Grossberg says he has about 90 audio tapes, including one of Ted Cruz talking to Maria Bartiromo. Ted specifically detailed a plan to overturn the 2020 election by creating a fake commission that could investigate fraud allegations. He wanted Congress to reject his January 6 certification, leave the committee, and elect a U.S. president.
