Graham Now Worries Giuliani’s ‘Information’ From Ukraine Might Be Russian Propaganda

Senate Judiciary Chair Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who was eager to hear whatever dirt Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani claims to have on Joe Biden several weeks ago, now seems to have some misgivings.

In an interview with the Daily Beast published on Sunday, Graham advised Giuliani to have the information on Biden that he supposedly found in Ukraine vetted by the intelligence community in case the “intel” is merely part of Russia’s disinformation campaign.

“He has not shared any of that information with me,” Graham told the Daily Beast.

“My advice to Giuliani would be to share what he got from Ukraine with the IC to make sure it’s not Russia propaganda,” the Republican senator added. “I’m very suspicious of what the Russians are up to all over the world.”

1. Graham says he's suspicious of what Russia is doing all over the world but...

he's not suspicious of trump's continual kowtowing to Putin?

Come on, Graham, you're fooling no one but yourself.

And the rest of the trump boot lickers of course.

[mdbl]

27. Seriously

Who does Graham think he's kidding? Oh wait, all the dolts that listen to rightwing hate radio and fux nooze.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

30. Nor does Graham do anything to secure elections. . . . nt

[TheBlackAdder]

40. Is this asshole saying one this to the FOX chamber and another thing to non-cult members?

[Eyeball_Kid]

2. Graham is playing "cagey" again. It's his MO.

Why would anyone trust the drool coming out of his mouth, no less the words? Graham is as slimy as a salted slug.

OF COURSE it's Russian propaganda, Lindsey! Put on your big-boy pants and stop equivocating. Do you REALLY think that Giuliani is going to consult with the IC when his madman boss thinks the IC is worthless? You are suggesting that Giuliani distance himself from Trumpy just to approach the IC? Really? You're just as crazy as Trumpy.

The bottom line is that Graham KNOWS that it's Russian propaganda that Giuliani is gathering. He's just trying to be coy so that Trumpy doesn't badmouthing him and, in the tradition of one who exposed the name of the alleged whistleblower, let loose some very damaging information that he has on Graham. Lindsey is sweating gallons of vile secretions in fear that he'll get on Trumpy's bad side. He may as well bend over and spread 'em, and get it over with.

8. His latest poll numbers are not good, he is getting scared that his Trump loving is hurting him.

[Wellstone ruled]

10. Leningrad Lindsey knows full well

his career in the Senate is about to come to a end if he keeps towing the Trump Bullshit line. The Boy is a flamer.

[ooky]

35. His Trump fellating is more like it. nt

[ancianita]

29. YEP. He knows that WE know he got Blavatnik money and now needs FUD cover.

He and 45 need Rudy as their scapegoat, like the losers they are.

[Martin Eden]

34. Does Lindsey's Lord&Master want Rudy's info vetted by the IC?

What a fuckin joke!

ETA:
Your post was spot on.

[Merlot]

3. This implies he actually found information, like when trumpft had Obama info?

"to share what he got from Ukraine"

trumpft pulled the same verbal BS on the Obama birth certificate search.

[tblue37]

4. Give it up, Lindsey. You're complicit in "what Russia is doing all over the world." nt

[spanone]

5. There's no 'might be' about it and Graham knows it.

[Wounded Bear]

6. Right now, I'm worried more about what Russia is doing right here in the USA...

"around the world" may be important, but it's kind of secondary to what Trump, McConnell, and Graham are allowing them to do right here at home.

[90-percent]

7. trumps hawaii birther research from 6 - 8 years ago

paraphrasing:

"I've have my investigators in Hawaii right now and you would not believe what they're finding!"

I don't think we ever recieved all this great info Trump's Hawaii detectives found? Maybe go send Rudy so we can finally prove once and for all Obama was born in Kenya!

-90% Jimmy

[John1956PA]

9. I hated trump's birther BS back then, and I wrote at LTTE condemning it.

That despicable conduct of trump turned me permanently against him.

[lastlib]

18. I DIDN'T believe what they found (ie, made up)!

Not ONE F***ing WORD of it! Still don't, never will. AnusMouth is nothing but BS.

[Vinca]

11. Lindsey's having a 10 second sanity break. He'll be standing in line to kiss the ring -

or whatever - the second the helicopter lands on the White House lawn. (Just had an image of Lindsey strewing rose petals on Dear Leader's path. LOL. It could happen.)

[Pepsidog]

13. True.

[UniteFightBack]

12. I remember watching a town hall with him and he swore he was very concerned with 'all things Russia'

and that just turned out to be another big fat lie from Linny.

[Nasruddin]

14. There is no "information"

At the worst, this is an effort to blow a little air over the fading coals of that story & keep it alive a little longer.
At best, it's just Graham signaling frustration.

I don't think Rudy is capable of getting anything. He's as far gone as Mr Trump.

[liberalla]

33. No *legitimate* information...

"Russia will be dangling FSB/SVR spy-made fake documents and fake witnesses in front of Giuliani..."

[Nitram]

15. Sounds like Graham is beginning to hedge his bets. That's a major crack in Trump's line

of defense. Pelosi has put the GOP under tremendous pressure to acknowledge that Trump has violated the constitution, betrayed the country, and put his personal interest ahead that of the country.

[58Sunliner]

16. What are the chances-100%? Graham now feigns concern? BS.

[lastlib]

17. NNNnnnnoooooooo--Vladdy Daddy wouldn't do THAAAAT!!

He LOVES Donny! And, by extension, Rudy! He wouldn't give rudy any FALSE info, now, right??

--- --- (just in case it's needed......)

[Codeine]

19. Oh stop it, Lindsay.

You’re all in for this motherfucker; quit trying to play it clever.

[catbyte]

20. LOL

[calimary]

21. Gee whiz, Lindsey, ya THINK???

[Botany]

39. Just because Stanford Law Professor Pamela Karlan & others came right out and said that ...

.... Republicans were repeating "Russian Talking Points" do you think that might have been
a clue?

[Me.]

22. Does He Have A Dual Personality Disorder?

[GoCubsGo]

23. Jeezus, he's so full of shit.

He lies as much as Trump does.

[MontanaMama]

24. The wind should change direction in 3-2-1...

And Lindsey will be back to kissing the ample orange ass in the People’s House shortly...

[erlewyne]

25. Lindsey is history ... he's finished.

He is trying to get back in good graces so he can invent another
line of bullshit. He's done.

My advice to these losers is "Leave my Nancy alone".
Don't (***) with Nancy. She teaches not to hate.
She loves you for what you are doing for the G.O.P.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

26. Hey, Lindsey, did the clue bird just shit on your head?

Did you just now figure out something that's screamingly obvious to every sentient non-GOP human? Jeez, man, of course it was Russian propaganda. That's where all this shit is coming from. "Russia, if you're listening..."

[patphil]

28. Lindsey Graham never ceases to amaze me.

What a moron!
His latest falls into the "no shit Sherlock" category.

[RVN VET71]

31. Giuliani is being thrown under the bus

If Giuliani doesn't see that bus coming down the road, and doesn't feel Trump and Grahams hands on his shoulders ready to push, then Giuliani is a bigger fool than I thought him to be..

Graham is not coming into the light. Graham is just standing ready to help Trump give Giuliani the push on command. And he's also sending out a not very subtle signal to Trump that, from Graham's point of view, Giuliani has become a liability.

(I never attribute to a turning toward the light what is easier explained by dark self-interest. I know most DU'ers feel the same way, but watch the media reporting on this. )

(Did I just hear some lip-flapper on Face the Nation say that Barr's allegations that the FBI spied on the Trump campaign have been proven by Durham? First, no they haven't been. Quite the contrary -- at least so far. Second, I seldom watch such shows and now, after a brief stop over on my way down the dial to NFL news, I realize how right I am not to watch such shows.)

32. Leningrad Lindsey Graham Now Concerned About Russia

What changed? Could it be the poll results coming out of South Carolina showing his lead has narrowed to 2 points. Graham has been spouting non-stop Russian disinformation for at least a year. Yup, it has to be the polls.

[BlueIdaho]

36. Someone's been reading his poll numbers...

Graham is going to get caught out when the tide comes rolling in.

[Enoki33]

37. Ruski Graham knows it is Russian propaganda, and has known from

the very first time his pal Putin uttered it on the international stage. His traitorous duplicity is a national threat. Disgraceful POS.

[Baked Potato]

38. Lindsey Graham isn't as stupid as Trump and Giuliani

Whatever the Ghoul has is bullshit and Graham knows it.

[Enoki33]

41. He knows whatever Giuliani has promotes Russian propaganda, strengthens

tRump, weakens Ukraine and the US while enhancing the Russian hand. Actually it is, or will be, a continuation of the brilliant strategic moves by Putin executed by the traitor in the WH. And l do not buy the concept that tRump is only a useful idiot. He is a Russian asset. Period. That much power in the control of a master spymaster such as Putin is world threatening.

[Baked Potato]

42. I agree with all that, dangerous times we are in

The operation is deep and wide. Patriotism and allegiances are being tested. The money, the big money involved is tasty and tempting to them. I think it’s too big to cover up.

[Blue Owl]

43. *Might* be?

My my, isn't Lindsey a perceptive chap...
