Lindsey Graham Wants To Call Whistleblower After Trial To Ask 'How All This Crap Started'

February 3, 2020, 5:29 AM EST
 
 

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) told Fox News on Sunday that the Ukraine whistleblower will be called before the Senate Intelligence Committee after the impeachment trial because “I want to find out how all this crap started.”

Graham is also threatening to go after former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter when the trial is over, even though Donald Trump’s impeachment defense team failed to demonstrate a single ethics violation or crime by either man.

As for the whistleblower, who is protected from retaliation by federal law, Graham told Fox host Maria Bartiromo: “The Senate Intel Committee under [Sen.] Richard Burr (R-N.C.) has told us that we will call the whistleblower. Why is it important? I want to find out how all this crap started.” 

Graham, a vociferous apologist for Trump, added: “The day of reckoning is coming.”

Graham said he wants to know “if the whistleblower is a former employee [or] associate of Joe Biden,” or “was working with people” on Rep. Adam Schiff’s (D-Calif.) staff. Republicans have presented no information that either case is true. 

“We’re going to get to the bottom of all of this to make sure this never happens again,” Graham said.

The whistleblower did not testify at the House impeachment hearing (the Senate called no witnesses) because information the whistleblower provided was confirmed by other documents or witnesses under oath.

Corroboration included Trump’s own rough transcript of his phone call last year with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky in which he pressured Zelensky to launch an investigation into unfounded accusations against Joe Biden — while Trump was withholding military aid from the nation.

Federal law protecting a whistleblower’s identity is designed to encourage government employees with information of wrongdoing to come forward. Some Republicans and Trump supporters have revealed the identity of someone they claim is the whistleblower, which the whistleblower’s attorney has argued puts his client’s life at risk.

At the Senate impeachment trial last week, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) submitted a question to Chief Justice John Roberts reportedly naming the whistleblower in order to deliberately expose the person’s identity. Roberts refused to read Paul’s question. 

Republicans claim that Biden, who was pressuring Ukraine to crack down on corruption in the nation while he was vice president, was attempting to block investigations into Ukraine energy company Burisma while his son was on the company board. But the vice president was pushing Ukraine to oust a prosecutor widely viewed by U.S. and European allies as corrupt. A Ukrainian investigation into Burisma was closed before Biden came on the scene, according to reports.

Ahh....so after the trial is over, Leningrad Lindsey finally wants to call witnesses.  So he was lying.  Turns out he doesn't know all he needs to know.....The Grand Old Party is in complete tatters, a shell of it's former ethical self.  Fact is, Lindsey knows exactly how all of this crap got started....by Trump making a phone call to a foreign government asking for dirt on his own political opponent.  As always, just my opinion.

Nice misinterpretation ....

 

Seems the impeachment phone call was July 2018.....

I think LG wants to get back to the origins....even pre 2016 election.........and work his way up to, and thru, the Ukraine corruption.......

 

This isn't the first time the CIA and FBI have gone rogue.....nor the first time we have seen politicians falling for corruption to make a buck for themselves or families....

 

Difference is Trump ran on draining the swamp......along with a few other things.......right now the swamp is running scared.....

JMO.      CL

No offense intended CL.....but Trump hired a good portion of that swamp.....and as they leave the administration, by firing, or otherwise....Trump comes across as this great swamp drainer to his base....Trump's history of and committed corruption while in office dwarfs the legend of the swamp.  As always, just my opinion.

No offense taken.....Trump has gone thru some people.....I look at some of it as part of a learning curve......CEO world and DC Politics are 2 different animals....

 

How/why Trump ever retained Comey......dumb move....

 

Other opposition that Trump didn't hire.....and should have unloaded are abundant......they have been trying to undercut him for 3 years..... 

 

And the opposition party.....from day 1.....impeach the MF'er.......and all because HRC lost.......and they were so sure she would win and cover up all the corruption they were complicit in.......

 

The left and MSM just can't seem to win against that dumbbell Trump and his band of deplorables.....

 

My advice is the left might look within their own party......with all the focus on destroying Trump.......thier own party is imploding........

 

Russia, Russia, Russia........seems a socialist is leading the pack for the left right now.....guess he is being backed by Putin as well!

Great Point, CoorsLite21.

 

Perhaps we can clean out the DinarVets Swamp "activists", too?

 

Seems THEE DinarVets Swamp "activists" are putting on THEIR "best" Dr. Spock "protected" "behaviors" ALL OUT in the hopes THEIR fanatical AND insupportable "personal" "agendas" WILL "prevail" since THEY are NOW "more" "threatened" with ACTUAL TRUTH AND PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY.

 

I believe, too, going from a fetal position to a standing position is a far better personal state of affairs. After all, one removing one's "cognition" FROM THEIR "personal" "safe" "space" offers a much cleaner and fresher air to "clear" THEE "head" AND "clean" "out" THEE "crap" FROM THEIR "personal" VERY OWN "cranial' "cavity".

 

Well, OK, just observing THEE TOTAL ineffectiveness of THEE DinarVets Swamp "activists" "counter" "measures".

OMG!!.....It's great to hear from you old friend, feared you might have went the way of the dodo.  Hope all is well in your world and with your family.  Yeah, I'm still beating the drum.  The liberal thing just sort of got attached to me, as I'm more of a "Trump's hopeless as a human" kind of guy.  And though they like to beat me down, some of these DV folks have become friends, though most wouldn't admit it.  Like LGD and me right now are fighting like brothers trying to date the same honey.  It happens from time to time, but one of us always comes around and buries the hatchet.  Besides, these dinar are still pretty much useless and me being one to never give up, I figure I'm here until they ban me, the dinar RV's, or Adam tells me to toss them in the trash.  Until then, game on.  It's great to hear from you....hope this isn't a one and done situation.  Would be nice to hear some perspective from a calm, cool person such as yourself.  :peace:

Interesting choice of words considering demonic attachments is one form of TDS. 

And we're not fighting, I'm much better looking and got the honey a long time ago.

Jill Biden Says Family Friendship with Lindsey Graham Is over after ‘Hurtful’ Ukraine Comments

Jill Biden said Monday that her family “used to be great friends” with Senator Lindsey Graham (R., S.C.), but that things had “changed” after Graham’s comments about the Biden family’s dealings in Ukraine amid President Trump’s impeachment.

Jill Biden, appearing on CNN’s New Day ahead of the Iowa caucuses, interjected after being asked a question about Graham, “whom I think you count as a friend,” John Berman added.

“We did, yes,” she said, before elaborating.

“I don’t know what happened to Lindsey. And we used to be great friends and friends with John McCain,” she added. “I mean we traveled together with the Foreign Relations Committee. We’ve had dinner. You know, and now he’s changed.”

Jill Biden added that “it’s hard” to still consider Graham a friend after his “hurtful” comments in regard to Joe and Hunter Biden’s dealings in Ukraine.

“It’s hard when you, I don’t know, consider somebody a friend and then they’ve said so many things, so many negative things,” she stated.

 

"We used to be great friends... And now he's changed," says Jill Biden, wife of Joe Biden, about Sen. Lindsey Graham's stance on the impeachment trial. "It's hard when you consider somebody a friend and they've said so many negative things. That's been a little hurtful."

Graham, in his role as Senate Judiciary Committee chairman, opened a probe in November into allegations that Biden used his position as the Obama White House point man for Ukraine policy to push for the firing of a government prosecutor in order to shield Burisma from investigation. While the prosecutor, Victor Shokin, was widely considered to be corrupt, President Trump and a number of Republicans have speculated that Biden pushed for his firing to protect his son Hunter, who sat on Burisma’s board at the time.

“I’m doing this because somebody needs to do it,” Graham told host Brian Kilmeade on Fox News Radio when asked about the investigation he is conducting. “We’re not going to allow a system in America where only one side gets looked at.”

Biden told CNN that he was “embarrassed” by Graham’s actions, but the South Carolina Republican defended the move.

“My friendship with Joe Biden — if it can’t withstand me doing my job, then it’s not the friendship I thought,” Graham told Kilmeade.

Ahead of the vote for additional witnesses and documents in President Trump’s impeachment trial, Graham told reporters on January 24 that “I don’t want to call Hunter Biden. I don’t want to call Joe Biden.”

“I want someone to look at this when this is done,” Graham said. Days later, Graham changed his tune after it appeared that witnesses were likely to be called.

Of course the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was to convince the world he didn't exist.

As for the demonic comment....I simply don't understand how you make comments like that, while stating you believe Trump may be the "anti-christ" (i.e...the boss of the demons) and still you defend him to the hilt.  It completely boggles the reasonable mind.

Okay.  If you really want to understand please read this CAREFULLY. 

 

Remember the day after the 2016 election? Never before have we seen people loose it like they did because Trump was elected. And while everyone else was laughing at the spectacle I asked myself one question, what the 

H E L L is it about Trump that absolutely made people loose their minds like that. I mean really he's just a man, how much damage can he do. As time progressed we saw the media and the entire political establishment do everything in their collective power to destroy him. 

I myself began thinking "if Trump doesn't declare Martial law then the powers that be would win. And yet here we are going on four years later and Trump is stronger than ever. I prayed and prayed for an answer from God to explain what is going on. That's when God explained to me how demons have been roaming the earth for thousands of years doing whatever they like with almost no resistance. 

 

But make no mistake about it even demons know what the word of God says. And they know it will come to pass. They also know who Satan is, and they most certainly know what will happen to them after the fall of the AntiChrist. They will no longer roam the earth playing games with people's lives but will burn for all eternity in the lake of fire. 

 

So it makes perfect sense that when the AntiChrist comes on the scene every single demon on the face of the world will come unglued and attempt to stop the AntiChrist from rising to power.  

 

You wrongly think of Satan and demons as some organization with order. Nothing could be further from the truth. Their realm is one of complete chaos. Otherwise, they could win. And we both know they won't. 

 

Later,  the Lord explained to me how that the AntiChrist would rise to rule the world for a time. But That he could only do that by convincing the people of the world he was on their side. This would cause the people of the world to love him and insist he become their leader. 

 

Trump may or may not be the AntiChrist, but it would explain all that has happened. 

 

And as far as my support system" rel="">support of him, once again you are sadly mistaken. I  don't vote for him and nor will I this year. I'm just not so judgemental and hateful that I'm incapable of seeing the good someone does, even if I don't like them. 

Furthermore, I fully understand that I very well could be wrong in my supposition. 

 

Okay then.

I think Ephesians 6:12 would tend to indicate that there is a certain level of organization to the kingdom of darkness...

 

"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places."

To Shabs, since the quote button is missing from you post:

 

How would a person call for a witness when that persons name can't even be mentioned in a question?

Is LG supposed to say "We now call the whistle blower to the stand"

House manager says "Which one?"

LG says "I can't say his name but you know who he is"

House manager says "I can't remember his name"

Out of the setting of the impeachment he can put the name of the wb on a subpoena and haul him in.

Then he can haul Schiff in for lying to Congress.
