“I don’t want to call Hunter Biden. I don’t want to call Joe Biden. I want someone to look at this when this is done,” he said Friday.

“I don’t think it’s wrong for us to look at the Biden connection in the Ukraine, the $3 million given to the vice president’s son by the most corrupt company in the Ukraine,” he added.

But Graham said he’s going to oppose subpoenas for them because “this needs to end,” referring to the impeachment trial.

“To my Republican friends, you may be upset about what happened in the Ukraine with the Bidens but this is not the venue to litigate that,” he said.

He believes it would be more appropriate for a special investigator such as former FBI Director Robert Mueller, who investigated Trump, or someone of his nonpartisan stature to do so.

When the going gets tough, Lindsey Graham folds....nothing like a little pressure to get him to fold like a lawn chair

Why has he been lying on Hannity about supporting subpoenas?

Graham is up to his neck in corruption while simultaneously being so deep in the closet he’s finding Christmas presents from before McCain’s brain did us all a solid.

Ah, piss off, Lindsey.

Betray our president and hide the corruption of Joe Biden at your own peril.

Huh? This impeachment is all about the Biden connection to the Ukraine.

This is a gross enough distortion of what Graham actually said that it fully qualifies as “fake news”.

Ideally, there will be no witnesses. Just vote down the impeachment and end this farce.

But if they do call witnesses, then the Bidens would have to be called. And the whistleblower. And Schiff.

This is a somewhat misleading headline and article. I watched the presser on this, and what he said was that he didn’t want THIS Hearing to be the venue for calling the Bidens. He said he would pursue it himself, if necessary, AFTER the impeachment trial. That is totally different than what the article was sugggesting..

Why would linda say this now, at this stage of the trial? It’s like I said months ago, they will limit who Trump can call as a witness.

Right, he wants to investigate it later not now. So it will go the same way it has other investigations and promises, no where.

I don’t want Biden. I want Atkinson. The Whistle blower, the staff from Schiff he met with the WB, Schiff himself.

Linda is walking a fine line here. His political fortunes are tied to Trump...be he’s just as guilty as the Bidens when it comes to corruption.

[[“I don’t think it’s wrong for us to look at the Biden connection in the Ukraine]]

You don’t ‘think’? You should know for a fact that there’s nothing wrong with looking into him because of corruption, and should state so emphatically-

The Bidens’ corruption goes directly to the motivation of Trump’s action and therefore is material to the case.

In my mind, Hunter Biden is the centerpiece of Trump's case.

Trump is the Chief Executive Officer of the Department of Justice.

In my opinion, when Trump asked Ukraine to investigate Hunter Biden, Trump had a good faith suspicion that Hunter Biden had violated USA law.
