Graham tells Durbin to pound sand, won’t allow Garland a hearing on Feb 8, citing need for a two day hearing. Impeachment trial starts on the 9th

Lindsey Graham
@LindseyGrahamSC
Justice Barrett wasn’t given a free pass on a routine 4-day hearing during her Supreme Court confirmation, and Judge Garland shouldn’t get one either on his nomination for Attorney General.

Read my full response to Senator Durbin about @senjudiciary hearing for the AG nominee.

11. Lindsey Graham is a small and petty man.

He was pathetic when he served as an impeachment manager during the Clinton impeachment and he is twice as pathetic now. He is so full of self-loathing that he can’t behave like a decent human being.

12. Biden should just make him "Acting" DOJ head.

Sure seemed to work for Fucker Trump.

They will eventually get around to it even with the dumbass republicans dragging their feet.

13. But AS Acting He's Only There For A Limited Time

14. Why Is Lindsey In Charge Of The Hearing?

[mackdaddy]

15. Because McConnell has been dragging his feet in passing the new Rules resolution.

The Democrats do not officially take control until this is passed.
This may happen tomorrow.

17. Is It Only Up To Him?

Is there not a time limit for him doing this and can't his hand be forced?

16. THE3 DEMS NEED TO kick out Miss Lindsey and take over.
