Graham's turn to cover his ass

Seems overly concerned about FISA warrants. Lindsey knows he's been swept up in investigations and he knows he's been busted. He consistently brings up FISA warrants and prosecuting people who falsified info on them.

THIS is why Lindsey has completely kowtowed to Trump. He's compromised and he's probably guilty of sedition if not outright treason.

Judge also determined it was done accidentally or at least w/o politically-based malice.

The guy lost his job and I believe got fined and community service and probation. Ya know, like powerful white people nearly always do when they get busted for violating citizen's rights.

Where he kissed Trump's ass this morning. So nice if him to cover all the Trump talking points.

Merrick Garland is the epitome of intelligence and professionalism and Lindsey Graham is the personification of an asshole.

Still don't know anything about it.

When I was younger I had my mom's voice in my ear to help keep me on the straight and narrow. Now I have my son's voice in my ear, saying "don't click on that link, Mom". - so far, so good.

Thanks for your reply.

About FISA pickups.... doing routine surveillance. He was questioning if he had a conversation with a person from a foreign power, would he have been recorded or monitored.

as some personal scandal. Then over time, he has probably compromised himself in many other ways because of his relationship with Trump.

But I'd be satisfied with him losing his seat and disgraced - if disgrace is something he is capable of feeling. After all, he'd get to go through life not a Senator, but still being Lindsey Graham.

Not happy, but satisfied.
