Graham calls McCabe comments 'beyond stunning' as he threatens to subpoena former FBI chief
Fox News ^ | Feb. 17, 2109 | Andrea O'Reilly

Posted on 02/17/2019 10:20:01 AM PST by libstripper

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., vowed Sunday to investigate alleged discussions at the Department of Justice about invoking the 25th Amendment as a way to oust President Trump from office and threatened to subpoena former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe if he refused to testify on the matter before the Senate. "We're going to find out what happened here and the only way I know to find out is to call the people in under oath and find out, through questioning, who's telling the truth because the underlying accusation is beyond stunning," Graham, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said on CBS’ "Face the Nation."

Graham added that he also plans to subpoena both McCabe and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein if they won’t voluntarily agree to testify before the committee.

I don’t know libstripper. After reading this article, I have to wonder who is lying and who is telling the truth.

Yeah, sure, right. And McCabe cops the 5th and then where are you? Waste of time and money.

FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe thought the witch should have won - that we were already a police state where 'intelligence" thugs (like the old USSR KGB) made the call who would rule and who would not.

He's a two bit thug. And the people who backed him are traitors.... It's NOT the job of the FBI to rally a mutiny against a duly elected President in a free country.

All these thugs belong in prison.

Flimsey Grahamnesty doesn’t want to get primaried out of office for his amnesty betrayal.

This is meant to distract, nothing more.

NcCabe made admissions of guilt in his own book. Indict him and put him in Prison. Hearings are worthless.

It's not a waste of money. The job of the Senate is NOT to pretend to be judge, jury and executioner. That's NOT their job.

It's also NOT the job of FBI thugs to pretend they're the old KGB... deciding who gets to rule and who doesn't. What McCabe did was a crime. He worked to unseat a duly elected President using the power of a Police State Office. He needs to be exposed, tried - and put in prison for the rest of his life.

Please stop with these dumb Senate hearings and get a grand jury started for God’s sake.

I suspect that Mueller is going nuts over this because there is no way a serious investigation can ignore Mueller’s involvement.

HOT DOG!

Lindsey Graham’s a lawyer, not stupid, and regards himself as a patriotic American. People in the Cabinet plotting to overthrow the President might finally have him recognizing just how bad it is.

Nixon.

Senator Stevens (Framed).

Spiro Agnew.

Three (I think) IL governors.

Many more.

That ball gargling rino can’t do anything but flap his gums and swing his purse.

He needs to be brought to justice, too.

The only way we’re going to get grand juries is if PDJT appoints a special counsel himself...

Thanks for posting this superb summary of the acts of sedition committed by Andrew McCabe and his fellow thugs at the FBI and DOJ!

“FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe thought the witch should have won - that we were already a police state where ‘intelligence” thugs (like the old USSR KGB) made the call who would rule and who would not.”

“He’s a two bit thug. And the people who backed him are traitors.... It’s NOT the job of the FBI to rally a mutiny against a duly elected President in a free country.”

“All these thugs belong in prison.”

As much as I want them to take action, Graham is actually playing this smart. He is turning up the heat just enough to get the Deep State traitors to turn on each other. Rosenstein was thrown under the bus by McCabe already. Graham, as Judiciary Committee Chairman, has oversight over the Executive Branch (and that include the FBI and DOJ).

Graham has promised a hearing, and he will get one. The FISA abuse will be on the table as well. McCabe's stunning admission on 60 Minutes has already caused major panic among the guilty. He is trying to walk back his comment, but it's too late now.

Moreover, Graham stated on CBS Face the Nation that if the FBI needed to be "cleaned up", he would support that.

People in DC can read between the lines.

McCabe and Rosenstein are going to be called before his hearing.

What I want are arrests, GITMO, and capital punishment if they are found guilty of Treason.

I have wanted that for the past 2 years. What Graham is doing is helping the President, and helping to twist the knife against the Deep State.
