Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., criticized what he viewed as a two-tiered legal system in favor of President Biden and against former President Trump on "Sunday Night in America."
Host Trey Gowdy began the segment with a viral clip of Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg revealing on Joe Rogan’s podcast that the FBI warned Facebook about "Russian propaganda" before the 2020 election, leading the tech giant to suppress stories about Hunter Biden’s laptop.
This news coupled with reports on the FBI raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home led Graham to suggest that there is a "double standard" in federal enforcement that could inspire violence in response.
"Most Republicans, including me, believes when it comes to Trump, there is no law. It’s all about getting him," Graham said. "There is a double standard when it comes to Trump. What happened with Hunter Biden is that the FBI weighed in to make sure the story didn’t break before the 2020 election. We now have whistleblowers at the FBI telling Sen. [Chuck] Grassley that they were told to slow down and back off Hunter Biden. And I’ll say this, if there is a prosecution of Donald Trump for mishandling classified information after the Clinton debacle … there will be riots in the street."
The senator repeated his warning that there would be "riots" if Trump is prosecuted.

"If they tried to prosecute President Trump for mishandling classified information after Hillary Clinton set up a server in her basement, there literally will be riots in the street. I worry about the country," he said.

Conservatives don’t ‘riot’.
(January 6 was NOT a ‘riot’.)
I think it would be better to single out antifa and blm acivists and leadership for discrete retribution, ranging from doxxing to .... well, use your imagination.
I’m too old to do stuff like that, but there are probably those who have the expertise and equipment to do it.
Far more effective than rioting in the streets.
If we were smart we would split up into large groups and protest in front of Graham, McConnell, and the rest of these utter LOSER senators who are doing NOTHING to help the MAGA movement THEIR BASE!! The FBI won’t lift a finger to help Graham, McConnell and the rest!!
There’ll be riots if he’s reelected, too.
how about something short of full scale war
like cutting the cable tv
F this guy. He is a scumbag.
Any en masse confrontation will only lead to the fate the J6 demonstrators met.
Things must be done discreetly, with small cells of no more than two to five people.
The smaller the cell, the harder to connect to a larger movement.
I notice he says nothing about the lawlessness of the current communist in the white house.
“if you want to stop this nonsense, vote and encourage others to vote.”
Because getting out and voting in record numbers to reelect the President of the United States in November, 2020 worked out so well, right?
Please tell me what has transpired in the time since then that would make you believe that our votes really do count for something.
Graham is not the best counterpuncher.
“secession is the only ‘peaceful’ way out of this BS.”
You put “peaceful” in quotes. There must be a reason.
I reckon the smart ones won’t riot, per se.
riots,
.
So when the left riots with arson and bricks it’s
Mostly peacefull demonstrations
When the right peacefully protests its called riots.
/\
SPIT.
The left will win a civil war...make no mistake about that. They control the power. And the right doesn’t want to lose their jobs or retirement checks.
You mean “Go Galt”?
Read some stuff on the Revolution, see what was necessary for victory against the greatest military power in the world. It wasn’t just a bunch of yahoos getting together on Lexington Green. They had the support of a state shadow government, which exercised authority derived from election by the people. That government was in coordination with colonial governments all across the eastern seaboard. They provided legitimacy to the cause, logistics and monetary support (though pitifully little), and political direction. The Congress, through its legitimate power (contested by the British) appointed General Washington, and various other generals and officers under him, to provide unity of command. Boogaloos are a fantasy. You want to fight and win, you need governors and legislatures.
Lindsey assisted the democrats in keeping Trump out of office, and Hunter out of jail. He talks like that never happened.
He says that like it’s a bad thing.
He says that like it’s a bad thing.
Anybody think they will give us “ROOM TO RIOT” or just shoot us in the street?
