On this weekend’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said the FBI investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election, which has turned into special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation, was “corrupt at the core.”
MACCALLUM: I want to ask you before I let you go a non-foreign policy question with regards to Bruce Ohr, who is a Department of Justice official Who worked under Sally Yates and just a few offices down from the head of the Justice Department. He’s becoming a much more central figure in what looks to be the initiation of this Russia investigation. What do you know about that?
GRAHAM: Well, he was the number four guy at the Department of Justice. His wife worked for Fusion GPS, the firm hired by the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign to get — to find dirt on Trump. They hired Christopher Steele, a former British agent, who went to Russia to gather a dossier that I think is a bunch of political garbage.

If Graham is saying this, Mueller’s investigation is just done.
><
Good point. They all know it’s thoroughly corrupt.
If this b*tch Lindsey is saying that about it, then you can bank on it. If there were ANYTHING to the investigation, she would be all over it, at the front of the mob with her pitchfork and purse.
And then charge the cost of bullets to their families!
Somebody should ask him why he insisted they should go on and threatened to not approve another AG if Trump fired Sessions.
Flimsey Grahamnesty is just following which way the wind is blowing.
He MUST be Cantorized in 2020.
Graham has stated repeatedly that he will continue to work for amnesty for illegal aliens until he is thrown out of office.
Keep voting for amnesty advocates and you will get it.
Lindsey sure can turn in a dime when the political winds shift.
Wasn’t Linda one of those praising Mueller and Rosey’s job and professionalism not that long ago?
He doesn’t need old dead John anymore. Now he’s going try to be his own Maverick and dead John stands, or lays, in his way.
...Linda is a better Senator since she’s not been around McCain...
I’ve seen a smidgen of improvement in Linda.
It’s really nice not to see or hear so much of McCain.

Yes and yes.
McCain won’t be missed.
Lindsey seems to have a pattern of sounding like a Republican about once a month. I guess that’s just enough, plus turning it up a notch just before an election, to fool enough gullible people to vote for you. Probably learned that from mccain.
“Lindsey seems to have a pattern of sounding like a Republican about once a month.”
Immediately after taking his Midol.
You only say that because it’s true.
Impeachment of Trump has nothing to do with the Democrats.
The plan always was (and probably still is) for Mueller to give Ryan a fig leaf that would be enough for him to wrangle the 25 GOP votes needed to send charges to the Senate.
McConnell only needs 19 GOP Senators to convict, and I bet he has 30.
Rightly or wrongly, people needed to be convinced that Trump was thoroughly vetted of election fraud.
If Trump had gone immediately into attacking Hillary and the gang of thieves and traitors, the Dems and half the country could claim that Trump was politicizing his Presidency.
But now that we find out that Trump has been unjustly accused, the public is ready to accept what’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
Lindsey Graham was part of the Trump scheme to let Mueller go forward. And now he is one of the ones defending Trump as we now go after the evil ones.
“Flimsey Grahamnesty is just following which way the wind is blowing.”
Yup...
“There will be holy hell to pay if Trump fires Sessions-
There will be holy hell to pay if Trump fires Rosenstein”—Lindsay ‘ball gargling’ graham.
Countless times he and his rino & neverTrumper cohorts have come out in defense of Mueller.
F-— him.
“The real cost to America has been the distraction from getting on with Trump’s agenda.”
I don’t know, he seems to be kicking butt. His agenda is moving at a faster pace than any POTUS in my 66 years. The deregulation, the trade deals, the tax cut, federal judge appointments.... I’ve never seen anything like it.
Meanwhile, instead of pushing back against his agenda, he has them believing they are on the verge of impeaching him.
I wonder sometimes if this Mueller witch hunt was his idea - he sure doesn’t lift a finger to end it.
Once every couple months he tweets something about how terrible it is and that Sessions should end it, but that’s it.
Spot on.
1. Ryan will never bring a Trump impeachment vote to the House in the 5 months that he has left. He’d be committing suicide.
1. If the Dems take control of The House and impeach Trump, they will never get the two thirds vote needed in the Senate to remove Trump from office.
In fact given how much the country is split at the moment, I don’t think any party is going to get a two thirds majority in the US Senate for a very long time to come.
They think their personal situations will be better with President Pence (and, BTW, which side is he on?) - but their cynical failure to back MAGA puts their majorities at risk.
