Incoming Senate Judiciary Chair Lindsey Graham: ‘I’m Going to do a Deep Dive on FISA Abuse’ (VIDEO)
GATEWAY PUNDIT ^ | 1/9/2019 | Christina Laila

Incoming Senate Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-SC) met with Trump’s nominee for Attorney General, Bill Barr on Wednesday as the Committee prepares for the confirmation hearings scheduled for next week.

Graham said Bill Barr has a high opinion of outgoing DAG Rod Rosenstein and King Robert Mueller, both criminals who have been trying to remove President Trump from office.

Reporters asked Senator Graham if he was going to investigate FISA abuses which involve Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.

“Will you investigate surveillance abuse allegations, including those involving the Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein?” a reporter asked Lindsey Graham.

“Yeah, I told him I want to give a deep dive on the FISA warrant problem as I see…” Graham said.

“Will you bring Rosenstein to testify under oath before he leaves?” a reporter asked.

Graham responded, “I’m going to do a deep dive on the FISA issue and I think he’ll be a part of it.”

Of course Rosenstein should be questioned under oath–he signed the June 2017 FISA renewal app and until this day, 20 pages of those FISA docs are redacted!

“Deep dive”

What are things overheard in a Senate bi-partisan steam room party?

Well, since he and Barr have decided that during confirmation they are going to claim that there “in NO witch hunt”.

So call Pres Trump a liar in public?

Pull this nomination.

(I told him to pull Session’s after he testified too)

Dive all you want, but show us the original FISA documents, that are being hidden behind the excuse of classification.

Still can’t figure out why Trump hasn’t turned them out.

Well, Lindsay, I’ll believe your “deep dive” when I see it. But IMHO your HIGHEST PRIORITY needs to be FILLING ALL JUDICIAL VACANCIES..

FOR THIS YEAR I’d like to see the Republican Senate and the President work so, by the end of the calendar year, we’ll be able to count the number of remaining judicial vacancies on one hand.

BOTH the Senate and President Trump need to get cracking to QUICKLY fill the MANY VACANCIES on US federal judgeships. There are over 140 vacancies of which around 70 had nominees pending in the last Congress. But there were around 70 for which Trump had not yet submitted nominees.

https://www.uscourts.gov/judges-judgeships/judicial-vacancies/current-judicial-vacancies

And there are other judgeships where near-future vacancies are known. These also need nominations in the pipeline.

I hope President Trump (and Lindsey Graham, the new Judiciary Committee Chairman) give this effort the URGENCY it needs.

“Still can’t figure out why Trump hasn’t turned them out.”

1. The corrupt state is refusing to release the docs
2. Trump’s being blackmailed and threatened. The DOJ is running a coup against him in broad daylight.

The white hats refuse to give the docs to Congress so the Dems on the committees can leak them

Trump’s being blackmailed and threatened.

He is not. Trump is running the greatest bait-and-switch operation in political history. Mueller and Rosenstein are white hats and are on his team.

The DOJ is running a coup against him in broad daylight.

Go take your meds.

Opinion reserved until after the deep dive is over. This is Linda's BIG CHANCE as a committee chair. Hope he doesn't blow it. Also hope he has cameras as much as possible. Too much 'secret' stuff going on.

Lindsey
Graham
ping!

Want on or off Linda's fav ping list? Just FReepmail me.
