Senator Ted Cruz , R-Texas, excoriated " Squad " member Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., on Monday for her "divisive lies" in response to her controversial tweet over the weekend, which claimed that the United States is "stolen land" and that Black Americans are not "free."

Bush turned heads on Sunday when she claimed in a post about Independence Day that Black people in America "still aren't free" and that the U.S. is "stolen land." "When they say that the 4th of July is about American freedom, remember this: the freedom they’re referring to is for white people," the lawmaker wrote . "This land is stolen land and Black people still aren’t free."
