Lindsey Graham calls for special counsel to investigate FBI
NY Post ^ | 8/12/18 | Nikki Schwab

WASHINGTON — Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham said it was “at least unethical” for a Department of Justice official to be investigating Donald Trump while his wife was working for the opposition research firm that produced a controversial dossier on the then-candidate.

During an appearance on “Fox News Sunday,” the South Carolina lawmaker also called for a special counsel to be named to investigate the Justice Department and the FBI.

Graham took issue with Bruce Ohr for being involved in the Trump-Russia probe before it was turned over to special counsel Robert Mueller because his wife, Nellie Ohr, worked for Fusion GPS during the 2016 election cycle.

Hey, Lindsey, Hillary destroyed subpoenaed evidence. Lots of it. Start there.

The FBI is institutionally Corrupt and cannot be salvaged.

The whole stinking lot needs burnt down and started again.

Trump should found his own service, loyal and answerable to him and the pursuit of MAGA

Special Counsel? Give me a break. The Deep State OWNS any potential Special Counsel. In DC, they’re all dirty. The only solution to this is mass firings at DOJ. Anybody who had anything to do with Fusion GPS and/or the Clintons has to go.

Lindsay is warming up for re-election in 2020.

His vote for amnesty and his pledge to keep working for amnesty are enough for him to be Cantorized.

No Lindsey! Although I appreciate you supporting the White House position. No more ‘investigations’ until we complete other, long open investigations. Show us some prosecutions first. Lock some guilty parties up, you know, the way Mueller locked up Manafort. The jails still work for republicans too.
Till then, no more stale Bread and broken down Circuses.

Hey, Linda... you’re late to the party. One already is in place contemporaneous with the actors committing the coup. But then... you would already know that and this is why you are spinning out a “special counsel” request to bury your OWN actions in support of the cabal. Buh-Bye unlucky Lindy. You’ll have more time to practice... “catching” in the rye with your boyfriend(s).

Yes and as Hillary was part of this collusion she should be named as well.

He sees which way the wind id blowing and wants to keep his Senate seat.

He deserves to be booted from office.

He’s up in 2020 and I hope to see him primaried out.

The FBI should be decommissioned. It is not a constitutional agency, is not needed, and wasn’t even an agency until 1908.

It has abused its powers, lied in court, committed acts of insurrection against the current President, sought to overthrow the 2016 presidential election, and has committed countless acts of crime.

It is time the FBI is dissolved.

Trump needs to clean house. The FBI and DOJ are corrupt; everyone knows it. The country would support him.

It's beginning to seem almost bizarre how Juan has practically disappeared from the news, but for his occasional shot at President Trump. Little or no news of him and his current condition and little or no curiosity from the MSM who've used him so often in the past.

a real representative would demand signs of life at this point, but we have no representation in congress.
