After Joe Biden’s name was included in a list that was revealed earlier to have taken part in the unmasking of General Michael Flynn, Ted Cruz took to Twitter to call out the democratic presidential candidate.
He called the news “stunning” and an “unprecedented politicization of intelligence & law enforcement.” He added that he believes the mainstream media “will ignore” the story.
Stunning: Biden, just days before leaving office, personally directed the unmasking of Gen. Michael Flynn, the incoming National Security Advisor. Unprecedented politicization of intelligence & law enforcement. Of course, MSM will ignore.

According to the Hill, Democrats see the list sent by Acting DNI Richard Grenell as further evidence of how the Trump administration has politicized the intelligence community and the Justice Department.
A Biden campaign spokesman denied the allegations, saying that, “These documents simply indicate the breadth and depth of concern across the American govt…over intelligence reports of Michael Flynn’s attempts to undermine ongoing American national security policy”
