Huh?
The first time this was the situation?
The Fed’s arrested over 800 people and some of them ARE doing time….
If a US Senator is threatening his country, to give a person who swore on a bible to defend the constitution, and appears to have broke it , a pass, because possible violent protest’s?
He needs to give up his seat in the Congress….
His running from going in front of grand jury to tell the truth is bad enough…
But this is just a confirmation that he scared shitless of what he has brought himself into by supporting Donald Trump….
Brining up the Afghanistan evacuation and Hunte Biden isn’t gonna help Graham or Trump in the end…..
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., criticized what he viewed as a two-tiered legal system in favor of President Biden and against former President Trump on “Sunday Night in America.”
Host Trey Gowdy began the segment with a viral clip of Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg revealing on Joe Rogan’s podcast that the FBI warned Facebook about “Russian propaganda” before the 2020 election, leading the tech giant to suppress stories about Hunter Biden’s laptop.
This news coupled with reports on the FBI raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home led Graham to suggest that there is a “double standard” in federal enforcement which could inspire violence in response.
“Most Republicans including me, believes when it comes to Trump, there is no law. It’s all about getting him. There is a double standard when it comes to Trump. What happened with Hunter Biden is that the FBI weighed in to make sure the story didn’t break before the 2020 election. We now have whistle-blowers at the FBI telling Senator Grassley that they were told to slow down and back off Hunter Biden. And I’ll say this, if there is a prosecution of Donald Trump for mishandling classified information after the Clinton debacle… there will be riots in the street,” Graham said….
…
The senator repeated his warning that there would be “riots” if Trump is prosecuted.
“If they tried to prosecute President Trump for mishandling classified information after Hillary Clinton set up a server in her basement there literally will be riots in the street. I worry about the country,” he said….
…
“If Joe Biden doesn’t regret what he did in Afghanistan, he really is deaf, dumb and blind,” Graham continued…

Just a reminder…..
Don Lewis
A Proud Boy was just sentenced to 4.5 years in prison for J6. Can you imagine giving up 4.5 years of your freedom for a narcisstic, lying, con man who doesn’t care about you in the slightest?

Kaitlan Collins
Without naming him, President Biden criticizes Sen. Graham’s comment about riots in the street if Trump’s prosecuted. “The idea you turn on a TV and see senior senators and congressmen saying, ‘If such and such happens, there will be blood in the street.’ Where the hell are we?”

Graham Insists He Wasn’t Calling for Violence
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) defended suggesting there would be “riots in the streets” if former President Donald Trump was prosecuted for mishandling classified information, saying he condemned the violence seen during the Capitol riot last year, CNBC reports.
Said Graham: “What I tried to do was state the obvious.”
My Name Is Jack says
Actually Graham is right.
He understands what the Republican Party is all about now.It contains a fairly large domestic terrorist wing.Indeed the wimpish Graham was an early victim of the DT Wing.
Remember after the invasion of the Capitol and Graham had hastily announced “count me out” in the Senate chamber indicating his disenchantment with the Trump led attack.The next day he was besieged at the Washington airport by the hoodlums.
Graham then understood that to remain a Republican one had to accommodate this domestic terrorist element .He also concluded that the DT Wing no longer cared about facts, the Constitution , law and order, nor anything else for that matter.They only cared about abject loyalty to a common ordinary criminal ,Donald Trump.
And the wimp accommodated himself to the new reality of what it means to be a Republican.Accordingly he well understands the reality of the authoritarian Republican Party.
So will they violently oppose any effort to hold this criminal they worship accountable for his actions?
Hell yes they will!

Sounds like a post to be made…..
But I would add…..
Knowing that he will appear before a Georgia grand jury?
He, like others …….
Is ‘adjusting’ his comments…….
