Lindsay Graham: ‘These Investigations Against Trump Were Corrupt to the Core’
Brietbart ^ | 12 Aug 2018 | Pam Key

Posted on 08/12/2018 2:37:08 PM PDT by SmokingJoe

On this weekend’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said the FBI investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election, which has turned into special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation, was “corrupt at the core.”

MACCALLUM: I want to ask you before I let you go a non-foreign policy question with regards to Bruce Ohr, who is a Department of Justice official Who worked under Sally Yates and just a few offices down from the head of the Justice Department. He’s becoming a much more central figure in what looks to be the initiation of this Russia investigation. What do you know about that?

GRAHAM: Well, he was the number four guy at the Department of Justice. His wife worked for Fusion GPS, the firm hired by the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign to get — to find dirt on Trump. They hired Christopher Steele, a former British agent, who went to Russia to gather a dossier that I think is a bunch of political garbage.

Someone needs to inquire as to whether Carter Page was an FBI plant.

“They all need to face a firing squad.”...…

Before they do us all a favor by eliminating the crocked/dishonest legal team Mueller has put together, make them pay back to the American people the same amount they have wasted on that bogus witch hunt. (With interest!) Then shoot the bastards.

The real cost to America has been the distraction from getting on with Trump’s agenda. I don’t know how you but a cost on that. It’s in the trillions.

Is Lindsay aware that he’s coming perilously close to crossing his best Senate friend?

Carter Page was an FBI informant introduced into the Trump campaign by known CIA asset Stefan Halper.

When Lindsey Graham gets it —that means that the whole establishment gets it. It means the deep state gets it.

This is progress.

Linda is a better Senator since she’s not been around McCain.

Graham is better without the McCain influence.

He’s now BEYOND where even most Trump supporters are on Mueller, and he’s continuing to vote for Trump’s judges.

That would be enough for me to vote to re-elect him.

—— was “corrupt at the core——

Must be “ is corrupt at the core”

There must be many executions on the scale of 1792 to erradicate thousands from our midst.

Trials and verdicts and appeals that afternoon and then executions the next morning

Justice must be swift. Defense attorneys must fear for their lives if they attempt snennagins

Nah, long, slow, years long grind. That would do more to keep this kind of stuff out of our culture. The trick is to be remorseless.

That is so true and I think Jeff Flake would have been as well. He is a very manipulative man, John McCain. I do not think Flake ever really got to be the Senator he wanted to be because of it and that is why he is so bitter. He is not a nasty man personally, like McCain is. I have worked with both of them.

If Graham is saying this, Mueller’s investigation is just done.

The last few years I’ve wondered why Sen. Grassley was able to get Diane Feinstein and Lindsey Graham to cooperate with him sometimes in the Judiciary Committee.

Recently, we find out that several years ago DiFi was busted with a Chinese spy but it was kept quiet. I bet Grassley knew and used the information to get her to cooperate. And I bet Grassley is using some inside info on Linda to keep him honest sometimes.

Thanks for sharing that. But why has Flake gone off the deep end lately? He should not target his bitterness toward the president.

McCain comes across as a nasty person. One would think that he would be most concerned with making peace and his salvation at this time.

Basically what this means is that if even Graham thinks Mueller’s investigation is corrupt, then there is ZERO chance of two thirds of the US Senate voting to remove Trump from office even if a Nancy Pelosi led House voted to impeach Trump(in the unlikely even of the Dems taking the House).
