Lindsey Graham Advises Donald Trump Jr. to Ignore Senate Subpoena
Breitbart ^ | 12-05-19 | PAM KEY

Posted on 05/12/2019 10:17:01 AM PDT by Monrose72

On this weekend’s broadcast of “Sunday Morning Futures,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) urged Donald Trump Jr. to ignore a subpoena issued by Senate Intelligence Committee Chair Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC). Graham said, “If I were Donald Trump Jr.’s lawyer, I would tell him, you don’t need to go back into this environment anymore. You’ve been there for hours and hours and nothing being alleged here changes the outcome of the Mueller investigation.”

If I were Trump Jr. I’d send Sen. Burr a letter telling him what he could do with his subpoena and a container of Vaseline to assist with the process.

Deep State is deep, and we have no idea what it has on Richard Burr. But Burr knows, and he’s not running for re-election. Burr fears something and he is in a very lonely place.

Send him a quart of black axle grease, instead.

His lawyer should explain he’d be happy to testify, with immunity.

He testified for 29 hours....on the condition that he would not be called again.

We were only kidding won't work this time.

I saw Don Jr. being interviewed awhile ago. He said he testified for something like 23 hours. He answered every question they threw at him.

As soon as he was done Schumer ran for the cameras and said Don Jr. wouldn’t answer any questions.

It’s like President Trump said, WE ARE DONE.

He testified in 2 sessions. One was 23 hours...the other...about 5.

Ignoring subpoenas is generally a really bad idea. Let your lawyer handle it. My own take is that I can see nothing that would be gained by the committee not already covered in his 30+ hours of already recorded testimony. This looks like harassment and a perjury trap. Time to take the 5th and let them stew.

Attend the hearing under protest, and answer every question with either “I don’t recall”, or “See the transcript of my previous XX hours of testimony”.

IOW, tell them to get stuffed!

Not in this case. Burr wouldn't have the votes to hold Donald Trump Jr. in contempt and the issue would be stuck right back in Burr's stupid face.

These never Trumper's need to be put down and it's about damn' time it happened. Burr and his ilk can go straight to hell: do not pass go, do not collect $200.

If I showed up for this I would bring the printed 30 hour testimony. As soon as I sat down I would throw it up on the table. ANY question asked of me I would point to the printed copy and say “it’s in here, read it for yourself”!

Perhaps Lindsey sees exactly what I and many others see:

A tremendous ABUSE OF POWER AND HARRASSMENT BY THE DEMOCRATS TOWARD CITIZENS OF THE USA.

This is idiocy and somehow it has got to be stopped.

Why doesn’t the senate subpoena Nadler and Schiff to appear before them and explain their actions.

Show up. Create a spectacle. Say your Dad told you people will ultimately hang. Call the Dems - assclowns. Ridicule them on live TV. Then get up and walk out.
