Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said on Thursday that the Senate Judiciary Committee will start hearings in June on the FBI's investigation into Russian election interference and President Trump's campaign.
Graham said in a statement that the hearings will deal with the Justice Department's decision to drop its case against former White House national security adviser Michael Flynn, the warrant applications against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page and if former special counsel Robert Mueller should have been appointed.
“The Judiciary Committee will begin holding multiple, in-depth congressional hearings regarding all things related to Crossfire Hurricane starting in early June," Graham said.
Graham previously told The Hill that he would start holding public hearings in June, with the goal of putting out a report by October.
Republicans have increasingly set their sights on decisions stemming from the Obama-era FBI and Justice Department. Graham has been pledging, and faced pressure from the right, to do an in-depth investigation into the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court after Inspector General Michael Horowitz found 17 inaccuracies and omissions in the warrant applications related to Page.
But Graham also indicated on Thursday that he would use his gavel to look into the investigation of Flynn, after acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell sent Congress a list of dozens of Obama administration officials who he says asked for documents that led to the identity of Flynn being “unmasked” in intelligence reports between the 2016 election and Trump’s inauguration.

Yeah, yeah, sure, sure.
Hearings? or an informal chat? Just to look like they are doing something.
Save our F#$KING tax dollars Linda you are a TOTAL waste of time!!
I’ll believe that when I see it.
Intel insiders who have seen the transcripts or heard the recordings say there was nothing illegal or sensitive discussed in the Flynn-Kislyak phone calls. We also know this is true, as they would have been splashed across every TV screen and newspaper headline if they contained anything damaging.
So if there was nothing of significance in the call, why were so many people at the highest levels of the Obama regime scrambling to unmask the US side of these calls? Who sent out the heads up "Hey guys, you might want to check this out" that initiated a scramble of very busy people to look into these calls?
And why are the transcripts still classified? The intel community claims they must remain classified because they don't want to disclose that they were listening in on Kislyak's phone, but that is obviously BS.
Believe me I feel the same way.
Assuming the GOP wins a Senate majority again, Sen. Grassley will be returning as Judiciary chair. Linda is blowing smoke.
Linda won’t call Obama. He is afraid his “Lifestyle” will be exposed.
.
Graham is stalling, waiting for the Trump Presidency to expire.
He’s protecting Old Joe.
.
TALK...>TALK....TALK!!! NOTHING will come of anything!
Hold hearings and then more hearings and nothing will happen.
Sen Grassley made an interesting slip (?)/comment, today, when interviewed about China trade deal, on Cavuto’s show.
Cavuto asked about the continued China trade deal, going forward....
Grassley said, Oh, you mean the next phase? Well, that will have to happen under the next administration.
Could’ve been a very innocent reply, but I thought it was an odd way to say that it’s not happening this year.
It snows in leadville Colorado in the summer..some times..
“He’s protecting Old Joe.”
And McCain’s legacy. McCain is sure to be exposed.
Yep.
Linda is hoping we all forget about the Ukraine/Hunter Biden hearings he was supposed to have because he’s up to his eyeballs in the Ukraine corruption.
He’s glad to investigate Flynn stuff to distract.
