Ted Cruz was ridiculed by political experts on Sunday after sharing what appears to be outdated video footage in an effort to prove violence at L.A. protests over immigration enforcement.

Cruz took to X to share a video posted originally by conservative actor James Woods, who said he will "throw up" if people refer to the protests as peaceful. The video shows police vehicles burning.

The fact check came quickly.

Former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan said, "It’s also not from today or this week. It’s an old video. You’re a US Senator so you should apologize and delete this tweet. It’s pure misinformation."

Republicans against Trump noted, "This…is……from 2020."

Liberal activist Harry Sisson said, "This video is not from this year. This is blatant misinformation. Why are you lying? Delete this and apologize."

Brandon Richards, who works for California Governor Gavin Newsom's rapid response P.R. team, added, "Also ... not from this year ... sorry Senator."

Former government official Neera Tanden said, "It's amazing a Senator keeps up a video that is a lie. This is from 2020."
