Justice Department documents that show the cell phones of multiple people on then-Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigative team were "wiped" during the Russia probe expose a "pretty obvious" double standard, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., told "Hannity" on Thursday.
"We cannot live in a country where this is tolerated," said Graham, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. "Trump-Russia, look how much money they spent, how many agents were involved in investigating all things Trump and Russia, how many subpoenas issued, how many lives turned upside down."
According to the documents, at least several dozen phones were wiped of information because of forgotten passcodes, irreparable screen damage, loss of the device, intentional deletion or other reasons. The data removal took place before the DOJ’s Office of Inspector General (OIG) could review the devices.
"If you can't manage your own phone, why should we trust you to investigate a crime?" asked Graham, who later added that "the question is, did they obstruct justice, did they intentionally delete information from their phone because [Inspector General Michael] Horowitz was on the case?
"That's the question for [Connecticut U.S. Attorney John] Durham. My job, as chairman of the Judiciary Committee, is to find out how the Department of Justice and the FBI got Crossfire Hurricane so wrong, why they lied to the FISA court, [and] to make sure it never

I kept waiting for Hannity to grill him about throwing Trump to the wolves by encouraging the interviews with Woodward, but of course he never even mentioned it, let alone “grilled” him. I thought Sean was supposed to be a fearless patriot and a tough interviewer that everyone was afraid of. Yeah, right. He’s like everyone in Washington apparently. 🤬
The corrupt process, which Graham vigorously protected, is the source of the ruination.
Mr. SCHUMER. Madam President, on another topic, I have come to the floor several times over the past month to document the number of ways in which this administration has signaled a willingness--perhaps a desire--to interfere with Special Counsel Mueller's probe into Russian interference in the 2016 elections. ...The bipartisan legislation introduced by Senators Graham, Coons, Tillis, and Booker has no real downsides to it. It would simply provide a legal avenue to restore the special counsel if existing DOJ regulations are breached and he is fired for political reasons.
‘
Hannity made a fool of himself.
He doesn’t think much of his audience.
‘
Maybe Linda can give us some insight on his LTD discharge from the military?
Maybe because he was caught in a homosexual act during boot camp?
Just passing rumors...
‘
He’s hanging out with General’s now.
Filling McCain’s shoes.
‘
Linda.....YOU ARE USELESS! Bombshell my ass......even if it IS a bombshell, NOTHING will happen to the Democrats that did it! NOTHING! Go away!
All talk, no action.
JoMa
Gee Lindsey, there is NOTHING you could say or do to make me even madder. I have Redlined ever since Trump became President! Tell you what you do Lindsey, after President Trump is re-elected start the call for a third term to make up for the one they stole!
Why do people insist data was wiped? Emtry was deactivated due to deliberate false entries. Enter the wrong password more than X times and the true password becomes illegitimate. Children do that all the time to their parents phones.
He’s conducting a dog and pony show. There are no indictments that result from dog & pony shows. No point even holding these hearings, or even paying any attention to the “revelations” that have been known for years now.
Yeah, no kidding, Microsoft windows delivers more compelling updates than Lindsey Graham. Sheesh!
All talk, no action.
This can they are kicking down the road is getting tired
That’s what John said.
Graham has had one mission from the start: to conceal McCain’s role in pushing (generating?) the Steele Dossier to torpedo Trump’s campaign and ensure a Hillary presidency. So Graham goes on Fox News Channel, Fox Business & Hannity’s show to pound the desk, call for justice, and declare how made he really is, and he’s going to get to the bottom of it. What he’s really doing is running interference to PREVENT the truth from ever seeing the light of day.
Blah blah blah....yawn.
Then change Depends full of boom-boom.
Graham is a seditious co-conspirator, enabling and protecting the coup plotters at every turn.
OMG I wish this ass-hat would just go away.
USELESS LOSER
