Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., didn't mince words at a news conference on Thursday as he touted his resolution formally condemning House Democrats' impeachment inquiry, saying the proceedings defy historical precedent and deny fundamental "due process" to the White House.
"If we were doing this, you'd be beating the sh-- out of us," Graham bluntly told a reporter at one point, accusing Democrats of selectively leaking testimony from their closed-door hearings, without affording Republicans the opportunity to subpoena or publicly cross-examine witnesses. "And, I think it says a lot about people in your business, with all due respect."
He continued: "We're not telling the House they can't impeach the president. What we're telling the House is, there's a right way to do it, and a wrong way to do it. ... This is one part legal, and two parts politics."

The filthy Susan Rice says you’re a piece of shit Lindsey.
Why can’t you stand up for yourself and your country for once and take that POS out?
Lindsey Graham does not want to hold hearings to get to the bottom of it because his old friend John McCain was up to his eyeballs in this, along with Brennan and Clapper. Can you come up with another explanation?
“And, I think it says a lot about people in your business, with all due respect.”...
They are not DUE any respect at all.
Flimsey Grahamnesty throws out more red meat for his re-election.
You want to stop this long before the President is impeached. A fake impeachment (as this is certain to be) would do irreversible damage to the executive branch; it would become political theater carried out by an Unhappy Opposition almost every time they faced an opponent they couldn’t defeat in an election.
Well Linda, why not get the Pubbies in both Houses together to start beating the sh-- out of them!!??
Kind of admitting here the RAT's are tougher than you (they are) and you don't have a game plan except writing stern letters to House RAT's
LOL!! Sounds like a fine lady!!! Sorry I did not get the chance to meet her!!!
Graham should hold public hearings and subpoena everyone Schiff has and have them testify in person in public.
Dr Jekyll and Mrs Linda
It’s a very hard resolution for even a turd like Romney to resist.
And it will be very easy for him to renege on this commitment when the Lucy moves the ball down the impeachment field for another Charlie Brown kick.
“You want to stop this long before the President is impeached.”
This article was about Senator Lindsey Graham’s comments. The Senate has no control over House impeachment. All it takes is a majority of the House to impeach Trump and it appears the House has the votes to do that but we shall see.
It’s a very hard resolution for even a turd like Romney to resist.

You mean Senator Pierre “Pete” Delecto.

Exactly. The Dems are in no rush here. The Senate GOP has already given the coupist Dems a month to gaslight this nonsense, run their star chamber, etc.
After the House impeaches Trump no doubt the usual RINOS in the Senate would back stab POTUS and demand a “bipartisan investigation” in the Senate regardless of what they say now and what garbage impeachment the House sends over. Think of that photo of Murkowski getting easily bullied by DiFi during Kavanaugh.
All the Dems want is the impeachment circus to paralyze the beltway for the remainder of Trump’s first term. So far the GOP is just fine with that, too.
Graham probably molested little boys on Epstein’s island.
Good move? No. A good move is to immediately begin hearings in
his powerful committee. A head fake by Linda. Nothing more.
Must be “Grahamhog Day!” That it,e every few months where Graham pops his head out of his ass when he is criticized for doing absolutely nothing in his committee to defend Trump and his polls show it. So he takes a cue from Trey Gowdy on how to look like your doing something while doing nothing. Vote the bum out!
I am confused. Where am I missing it? I still hear them talking om TV about impeaching Trump.
Help me with this..
I believe words mean something. Or the lack of words can give an erroneous allowance that corruption gets a pass. and that pass says you can do it again.
But this talk about impeachment.. why is that word getting a a pass? commentators use it and talk about “will they or will they not?” and comparing things to Nixon and ‘Clinton
Lets get this straight! Trump has been accused of most everything they can think of.. but they found nothing. Could obma get the same inspection and come up clean? No.
This impeachment talk is to unseat a President they want out of the way. and they remove a President just because they want the power he has...given to them. Can’t do that!
So they’ve been saying he’s done this or that. but it’s only words..he has not done anything ... he’s the only one doing any good for the people.. but that POWER is what they are after.
But they tell it over and over till the left “followers” are believing it.. it’s a lie.. it is a coup.. and it has to be stopped!!
Are you sure? She’s been dead 15 years and I still run into people who knew her. Everybody knew my mom.
CC
they got 46 senators to sign on, NO ROMNEY, COLLINS, MURKOWSKI, LEE, ALEXANDER, GARDNER.
Why isn’t Graham investigating this!
