#LindseyGraham #Georgia #Trump
@davidrutledge19568 months agoThis guy is a bold faced lying traitor. 708
@
@larryj10488 months agoI hope Lindsey will be part of a "second-tier" round of indictments for people like himself, Ginny Thomas, Steve Bannon, Roger Stone, etc. There are many more traitors to attend to! 159
@
@jeremiahpattillo29328 months agoGraham was not simply checking on the election process. He was trying to get the Georgia Governor and Secretary of State to change the outcome of the 2020 election. And that's why the Grand Jury recommended that he be indicted. ...224
@
@jacquelynbrickman29828 months agoIt's only troubling for the country when you make things up and then try to justify them. Sick of these people 71
@
@sjt42258 months agoIndict him, convict him, sentence him, jail him. Rescind all of his military and government benefits/pensions. 279
@
@terryfraatz4248 months agoSays the man who said "if we nominate trump, we will get destroyed...and we will deserve it", Oh Lindsey how right you are! 639
@
@metermill8 months ago“We can’t use the legal system as a political tool,” says the GOP who got the Supreme Court to overturn Roe. 333
@
@ripztubig44578 months ago"I lied and wasted millions of taxpayer dollars with baseless claims of voter fraud and now I'm facing the consequences of my actions." 27
@
@joycefairfield91028 months agoYou are complicit, and the Statute of Limitations is ticking. You are on the clock Lindsey. 266
@
@c.a.t.7328 months agoA lot of us are "worried about the country right now", and the actions of people like Lindsey are the reason. 1286
@
@nighthawk_predator18778 months agoHe has to tell us his status as a senator and head of a committee twice. He should have been tried because he is up to his neck in this mess. 26
@
@deeveloper25678 months agoGraham said as US senate judiciary chairman it was his job to certify the election results. No, the U.S. Senate Judiciary Chairman does not certify the election results. The U.S. Electoral College does that. 18
@
@waynej.sutherland43598 months agoGraham is an example of why term limits are needed. 479
@
@markr15748 months agoI,m worried about the state of the country where anyone would hear this and not consider this man a traitor. 50
@
@bella23048 months agoGraham, "You know i uuh ran several committees which doesn't mean squat when your integrity, morality and office are negotiable and up for sale." 🙂 VOTE Early VOTE Blue 🔵 VOTE Democrat 15
@
@e7p037a8 months agoThey’re going to charge them after they get through the first round of traitors 14
@
@EJWash578 months agoYou hitched your wagon to that circus cart, Graham. Now deal with it! 69
@
@twain30748 months agoI'm worried about the country too, and a lot if it is because people like YOU, Lindsey, are more loyal to Trump than to the country... You know what you did, and WE know what you did. 131
@
@hbpencil888 months agoIt's funny when those engaging in criminal behaviour make grand statements about where the country is going to deflect from their violations, especially when they are part of a political coup. 12
@
@cindycreateforlife8 months agoIt could also be said that a political system should not be used to hide criminal conduct. Certain people like to believe that a political position grants them immunity from all crime, gives them the right to pardon co- conspirators and their privilege of holding office is guaranteed! ...12
@
@realsugar70568 months agoHe had absolutely no reason to call GA after all the courts and GA said the election was fine. They should have indicted him. 32
@
@AndiDuck8 months ago“Lindsey’s the guy who double-crosses everyone to save his own skin.” - President Obama - Memoir 2020 515
@
@AldenRogers8 months agoWho'd have guessed, when you perform political crimes, people want you held accountable!? Imagine that! 7
@
@mr.basketball20138 months agoThe system is off the rails when politicians are to be held accountable. But when regular citizens are being trampled by the system. It’s just working as it was suppose to, I guess. 5
@
@jillionairess8 months agoHe thinks the system is going off the rails? HE'S BEEN A BIG PART OF THE SYSTEM FOR MANY YEARS. If it's failing he is failing. 471
@
@strangelet45888 months agoHe’s right. It is troubling for the country. The fact that he wasn’t inevitably indicted is abhorrent… 187
@
@Juicexlx8 months agoNews: Federal Judge denied Mark Meadows' attempt at removing his case from GA Court to Federal Court. Yep! That Midnight Train To Georgia is coming down on track 1! 4
@
@spigette8 months agoI'm starting to think that Lindsey has some kind of shame/humiliation kink. Seriously, he must get off on this somehow. I can't account for him otherwise. 4
@
@vercoda99978 months ago"I'm a victim!" What a weasel, a liar, and a traitor. 382
@
@Sevenmountainisevil8 months agoWhat a disgrace of a person. He's been part of the problem for years, no spine 178
@
@aetch778 months agoJust in case I misheard that, did he just admit to election interference in other states, not just Georgia? 3
@
@darrellknott11108 months agoStrange, the judge he went crying too found it wasn’t Lindsey’s job as a senator. A grand jury of ordinary citizens recommended charges after seeing the evidence. 157
@
@rocketsfan61168 months agoWhat's troubling is politicians like YOU, Lindsay. 😵💫😑 495
@
@politicalaccountabletheory7688 months agoNo , senators need to be careful and not abuse the seat to overturn a legitimate election. Instructing to toss out votes is not legal acts of a senator. Impeach him 2
@
@jorionrange83368 months agoFulton County is not the most liberal cities in the countries. He would have been on the phone with every district in California if that's what he's worried about. Personally, I feel this is a confession. 2
@
@hartshut8 months agoYeah I’m worried about the country too with senators like him. 35
@
@sherryw-ponyluv-er23948 months agoLet’s not use the legal system to hold people that have been breaking laws accountable Lindsey?!?! Yeah, NO! 560
@
@christopherminto82098 months agoIf he believes he is innocent then he should have no problem facing charges and proving he is innocent. 2
@
@grandpavan83358 months agoIt'll be interesting to hear what you have to say on the witness stand when they subpoena you to testify. 1
@
@gailjohnson59508 months agoAs you can tell, Lindsey is dropping weight..fast. He is obviously stressed and, I would imagine, frightened. 98
@
@rick-hm9lv8 months agoMs. Lady-Bug Graham is guilty as sin. Lock her up! 21
@
@marionlogan60698 months agoDon't crime and you won't be considered a criminal. How many other elections did he call the states to investigate? 1
@
@larryj16858 months agoA closer look at this guy needs to be done and eventually brought into court to speak under oath! The people realize what the his calls made were all abt 1
@
@iridescentsquids8 months agoBoy….he sure is a convincing liar. It really sounds like he believes he’s not hypocritical and dishonest. It’s creepy. 18
@
@annettes74608 months agoLindsey Graham, a true politician, able to speak out of both sides of his mouth! 1280
@
@rosemariebredahl95198 months agoIf what Graham says in his response to recommendations by GA Grand Jury that he be indicted is true, he needn't worry, but neither should he disparage GA's legal process prior to trials during which all evidence presented will be considered carefully through due process. ...1
@
@chasjacks93788 months agoSo says Lindsay but the jurors say he over stepped his duty and tried to stop voters from having their votes count. I believe the nutreul members of the jury. Charge the Senators and let the court decide his fate just like the rest of us. ...1
@
@PatrickCoble8 months ago"The country's going off the rails" because Lindsey didn't get the pardon he asked for. 29
@
@brandonlee43228 months agoGraham is off the rails!!!! That’s all 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ 2
@
@j.dunlop82958 months agoHe's the right to remain silent and not expose himself to more of his hypocrisy, and violations of his Oath of office? He does! 1
@
@rufustdangleberry51278 months agoWell I do declare, I have concerns about Ms Lyndsey and how he supports that head with no spine. 56
@
@timrussell98698 months agoWhat happened in Geogia was none of his business. It was up to the state to sort things out, and they did. But he couldn't keep his nose out of it, and needs to pay the price. 1
@
@rickemail39508 months agoOnly 19 people in the indictments, but the grand jury recommended that 40 people should be indicted. Likely the additional 21, or most of them, will be indicted in a second prosecution.
@
@debbiebarnes46888 months agoLindsey, ask Mark Meadows how that “I was just doing my job” defense is working out. 23
@
@spir51028 months agoMiss Lindsay: I’m worried about the country right now. But I’m not worried about the fact that I tried to overthrow democracy. 136
@
@user-yv6yg3ft2z8 months agoIt’s about time LG is held accountable 1
@
@GreygooseRedbull-nd5ob8 months agoHe called to multiple states... just admitted his guilt. At the minimum thats a violation of the hatch act. 19
@
@theurbanyankee8 months agoWhen Lindsey opened her mouth you know she lying. 30
@
@rossfindlay77608 months agoThe only question Lindsay Graham has to answer is , Top or Bottom and let's face it we already know he's a catcher not a pitcher! 1
@
@DanG-ug1ed8 months agoPoor Lindsey!! He wants to play the other side now. He has earned his right to be indicted, found guilty, and locked up! 1
@
@Gary-xm1gy8 months agoLock Lindsey Graham up and permanently bar him from ever being able to hold any political office 744
@
@latymz8 months ago😂 Dude answer the question. SMH. Another traitor. Lock him up. 15
@
@Ian.5498 months agoDo the crime, be prepared to do the time. 1
@
@christinarose30028 months agoOh he is very worried about the country… funny he never mentioned the results of those court cases. He is irresponsible. 1
@
@0Lolwolf8 months agoSo Senator Graham why have you not released your findings on your INVESTIGATION? 18
@
@StrueSlies8 months agoThis is why he should be indicted, even after hearing what the jury suggested he still goes out and says this. We can't keep giving these liars and corrupt officials a pass on these little things because they then think they can go out and commit bigger crimes. ...183
@
@ChorizoCentauri8 months agoWhat's troubling for the country, Lindsey, is that Republican Senators and Representatives are overtly violating the oath to the Constitution. 526
@
@jimmeltonbradley14978 months agoThis recommendation to indict came from a jury of his peers. Is he saying that his fellow-Americans got it wrong? If so, that's the worst kind of arrogance. 16
@
@JavierBonillaC8 months agoI once looked up to this guy before Trump. Since then I’ve seen him do the most despicable things any politician has ever done. I can’t believe he is not more dammed than Jeffrey Epstein. 1

@
@stevedixon85678 months agoslippery mofo, it’s not his job to call up Raffensberger under any circumstances, let alone to smooth talk him into doing Trump a solid 93
@
@chemento07128 months agoNo, Ms Linsey, you can't have your cake and eat it too. But I do hope the next round of indictments mentions you in first place. 1
@
@ladyliberty57718 months agoHe is rambling! He is so scared! He deserves everything coming his way! 1
@
@StoneInMySandal8 months agoGraham talking about responsibility is one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard. 19
@
@ginalogan8768 months agoI would be concerned if I were him speaking on this case. He could easily be indicted at a later date. 17

@gavinreid91848 months agoWhat he did was consistent as a Republican. After failing in the courts 60 times he opened Pandora's box by ignoring those court findings and trying to go around them. 458

@
@timothytann25578 months agoPadoras box....? What. ? So you can so call "do your job" in which has no weight in GA...but the legal system in Ga is supposed to turn a blind eye unto the criminal acts you and others are being held accountable for...hypocrisy to the core... ...
@
@godfreydaniel62788 months agoNO ONE from Georgia called Graham up - in SOUTH CAROLINA - and said "will you look into our fair and secure election?" As if... 63
@
@robertnelson44608 months agoIt's not about the fact that Ms. Lindsey was concerned about voter fraud, it's the fact that he attempted to use his influence as a Senator illegally. 248

@nathanialpittman69498 months ago1. I eventually certified...I did have concerns about the mail in ballots in Georgia and other places... what concerns? What other places? Did you call those other places?
@
@davidtullar77748 months agoLindsey, you used to behave in an honorable way. Then you sold your soul to Trump. History will not be kind to you. 81
@
@hopeinthesouth8 months agoI am soooo embarrassed he represents South Carolina. He knows what he did wasn't right. GO TO JAIL!! 44
@
@lessaunders86548 months agoOath to the Constitution does not matter to the former Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committe who will eventually face justice like all other criminals.
@
@mikegerard87128 months agoAll that said, Lindsay was recommended for charges! Corruption at all levels needs to be driven out! 27
@
@bpogorman68 months agoThis was the Graham equivalent to “Do you know who I am?” Also, he is incorrect when he assumes that it is within the purview for politicians to use their power to help out a buddy. 250
