Nunes, Graham, Jordan....are all wise....and patiently waiting for the IG report. I’m betting that Graham wants this pulled as soon as the IG report comes out...and if the Dems read it since it was available to them, they wouldn’t be playing their games. The Dems are going to be exposed.

Graham added: “So, the bottom line is the dossier has never been independently confirmed. It was used to get a warrant. They knew the author of the dossier was on the Democrat Party payroll. He hated Trump; they got the warrant anyway. Most Americans should be very upset about that. I’m very upset about it. And we’re going to get to the bottom of it.”

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

the “alleged” author of the dossier (steele) was on the FIBBER payroll.

imo, this whole deal was “made in america”

the part about new immigration asylum package::

‘Separately, Graham also announced that he will introduce new legislation on Wednesday to address what he called the “broken” U.S. asylum laws contributing to the ongoing humanitarian crisis along the southern border. Among the changes Graham will seek is to prevent people from asylum at the border, as opposed to a consulate — a move that would raise constitutional issues if implemented.

Graham also said he wants to change the law to permit the U.S. to hold minor children for longer periods, to discourage adults from bringing children to the border as a legal “shield.” Currently, Graham said, adults seeking asylum with children are released into the U.S. and never heard from again. (The Trump administration last year altered its previous zero-tolerance immigration policy to preclude family separations at the border, amid a backlash.)

“We’re going to change the asylum law, that you have to apply in the country where you live, or in Mexico,” Graham said. “We’re going to stop Central American applications being made at the border, because we don’t have enough judges for hearing dates. We’re gonna go to 100 days, we can hold minor children for 100 days so we can actually process the entire family without letting them go. We’re gonna increase judges by 500; we got almost 900,000 backlog of asylum claims. We’re gonna wipe out the backlog [of asylum claims.]”

Graham added: “If you’re an unaccompanied minor, we’re going to send you back to Central America as if you lived in Mexico, which would be a change in our laws. This should stop 90 percent of the illegal immigration from Central America.”

Nothing new — this is re-election Graham. Pops up every six years.

In words only, just like his unwavering support for all things mueller to this day. Sure he put on a good show for SCOTUS. But show me one deed where linda did anything of substance. Linda is mccaniac's apprentice.

I am still wondering about the lengthy hug Graham gave Huma, and the two generals watched that...someone tell me how to interpret that. I still cannot trust Graham 2.0.

Go, Graham!


Wherever Graham is going it isn’t prosecuting criminal Democrats. He runs as fast as he can from that subject in interviews. Get ready for lots of “mistakes were made” and “we can’t let this happen again” from him as he proposes new legislation. And that is exactly as far he will go. Sorry.

Graham is running for president.

At the moment, he won’t challenge Trump in 2020.

But, if Trump falters, because of poor health or political wounds, Graham will definitely seek the nomination.

But all that is secondary....

Trump is the Chief Executive Officer of the Department of Justice.

Why hasn’t Trump declassified and publicly released the Steele document?

Well, I'll take what Graham says at face value until proven otherwise.

Trump, being non PC, and having the support of Republicans, Independents and some Democrats, may have given Graham a new set of balls that he hasn't had for decades of "business as usual" in Washington.

At least Graham has something of value he's talking about..........unlike that stupid bill Cornyn put up that just pats the illegals on the head, to show how compassionate he is. UGH........
