Lindsey Graham Launches Investigation Of Obama For DOJ Corruption


Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) is ignoring what Trump and Barr are doing at the Department of Justice and is instead investigating the 2016 Russia investigation.

According to a press release from Graham’s Senate Judiciary Committee:

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) today requested transcribed interviews from a number of individuals involved in the Justice Department and FBI’s handling of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation, including the applications and renewals of a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant on Carter Page.

Graham requested the following Justice Department employees be made available for transcribed interviews as soon as possible: Supervisory Special Agent 1, Case Agent 1, Case Agent 2, Case Agent 3, Staff Operations Specialist, Supervisory Intelligence Analyst, Supervisory Special Agent 2, Supervisory Special Agent 3, OGC Unit Chief, Intel Section Chief, Stephen Laycock, Kieran Ramsey, Jennifer Boone, Bruce Ohr, Dana Boente, Deputy Section Chief, NSD and Gabriel Sanz-Rexach.

Here is the letter that Graham sent to Barr:
-----at link-----

On the same day that Barr announced that he was bringing an outside prosecutor to investigate the Mike Flynn case, Lindsey Graham is in the Senate investigating Obama and the 2016 Russia investigation.

There is a common thread running through each of these stories, and that is the desire of Donald Trump to invalidate the Russia investigation before the 2020 election. Trump and his allies Graham and Barr are attempting to clear the way for more Russian election interference.

Trump wants to blame Obama for the Russia investigation, and Lindsey Graham is trying to make that happen before voters go the polls in November. What we are witnessing is a massive Republican effort to wipe out the Russia scandal.

1. What a joke.

Can the House subpoena a Senator?

[questionseverything]

55. they can subpoena anyone, it's wether they come or not

do they have the legal right?

I would think yes

[Wounded Bear]

2. K & R...for visibility...

Yes, they're trying to discredit the Mueller Report, even erase it. Send it down the memory hole.

[Ohioboy]

35. But why?

Didn't it totally exonerate the big orange clown?

You'd think they'd want to preserve the Mueller report... you know, for it's total exoneration reasons.

[BigmanPigman]

3. I have to wonder if the rehiring of Hope Hicks, Preibus, Spicer

and McEntee have anything to do with this.

[hkp11]

38. sure seems like it

Drumpf wants his trusted ex-people back - the ones who kept quiet and were showing themselves to be trusted devotees of the Putin like fuhrer!!

[BigmanPigman]

41. I think he is going to clear everyone of his pals of their multiple crimes

and then erase the whole Mueller report and they are all in cahoots since they were on his team when it all started. They know where the bodies are and how to clean up the mess.

[Frustratedlady]

4. These people wear me out. This little twit must put himself to sleep at night dreaming of ways to

get his jollies by sniping at Democrats.

I suppose that means he and his clowns are going to investigate Obama, ad nauseum, like they did to Hillary? At the same time, they can attack Schiff and Pelosi.

McConnell will encourage and assist with any ill-advised shenanigans they are up to.

We need to clean these corrupt bastards out of the Senate as much or more than we need to get rid of Trump.

[highplainsdem]

29. I read a David Cay Johnston book about Trump that mentioned Trump speaking at some motivational

conference in Colorado years ago, long before he ran for president, and apparently all he wanted to talk about was the importance of revenge, getting even with anyone you thought had hurt or slighted you. Delivered this message with a lot of four-letter words, too.

[BigmanPigman]

42. Someone needs to be a hero/martyr

and put an end to him and this shit once and for all!

[In It to Win It]

5. ...and we're the snowflakes?

Good luck finding nothing

[maxsolomon]

8. They don't need to find anything

Since they'll manufacture what they need out of whole cloth.

See: Page & Strzok.

[Horizens]

6. Lindsey Graham

is a sick man.

[greatauntoftriplets]

7. Talk about witch hunts.

Graham and his orange buddy are assholes.

[bluestarone]

9. They are our PLAGUE!

The whole FUCKING BUNCH of them!

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

10. Lindsey with his Trump man crush

[BlancheSplanchnik]

11. oh jesus h christ, Lindsey....

Go away. Get help. Do something about yourself! How do these people not see themselves? I just don’t get it.

[2naSalit]

14. Indeed!

[stillcool]

12. Please Proceed...

I so hope the boomerang effect is still in play.

[Roland99]

13. At straws, grasping they are

[UTUSN]

15. This is for real?!1

[Amaryllis]

16. How many of you rolled your eyes when you read this?

[Different Drummer]

18. ...

✋

[mountain grammy]

17. Not a damn joke

Time to hit the streets.

[Takket]

19. nope. the executive branch has zero responsibility to answer for anything before Congress...

So says (checks notes) Lindsay Graham and the rest of the GOP Senate.

[Generic Other]

20. Will they include the Birth certificate crap too?

They got nothing.

I think all they will expose is themselves.

[struggle4progress]

21. The FBI and intelligence folk started worrying about Page back in 2009

because he was meeting Russian spies who were trying to recruit him

[Kerrycrat]

22. Remember...

when Graham seemed to have integrity?

I wonder what happened to him. What did Trump promise him?

[Rebl2]

39. I don't think

it’s what Trump promised him. More likely it’s what Putin has on him. I also think he lost his moral compass when J. McCain died. I’d be curious to know if McCain family has anything to do with him anymore.

[Kerrycrat]

50. Not that I would care...

but he does sort of set off a straight gal version of gaydar. And we all know THAT wouldn't go over in the GOP

[Traildogbob]

23. Ex-Executive priveledge

Ignor and deny, national security. Fuck any demands. The bar has been set. No whiteness and no documents. Graham needs to do the world a favor, smoke cigars with Rusty Limpballs.

[NCcoast]

49. My take exactly

They made that bed, let them lie in it. Give them nothing.

[kacekwl]

24. Tell Lindsey to pound sand.

No witnesses no documents. You sir get nothing.

[Faux pas]

26. What a

waste of taxpayer money that they don't earn in the first place

[BigDemVoter]

27. Why can't we waterboard that mewling, brown-nosing, little bitch man?

[Harker]

28. When you're in quicksand up to your neck...

I suppose you might start flailing.

[Midnightwalk]

30. Subpoena him

He’d tear them a new hole. Maybe Schumer could suggest it.

[DENVERPOPS]

31. People

You ain't seen nothing yet.........They are just getting warmed up.......

[rockfordfile]

32. Proves Leningrad Lindsey is desperate and corrupt

[Ohioboy]

33. Yep

And even if they find nothing they'll act like they did, and their base will eat it up. Just muddy the waters is all they need to do. It's sick!

[aggiesal]

34. Wonder how the Rep Senators would feel ...

if the DOJ employees just refused to be interviewed?

[blm]

36. It's always been to CLEAR RUSSIA of all 2016 crimes against US.

It’s never really been about Biden. The easiest way to shift blame for 2016 from Russia onto Ukraine was to USE Hunter Biden’s unfortunate connection as the thread.

Trump wants to lift all sanctions on Russia and the only way he can do it is to concoct an entirely different scenarios that would blame Obama, FBI, and Ukraine.

[hkp11]

40. since the Russian sanctions did not get lifted

so this is Drumpf doing what his fuhrer (Putin) wants

[nature-lover]

48. Lifting sanctions has always been the priority. Discrediting intel. agencies is a necessary step.

[FlaGranny]

37. What we are witnessing

is an attempt to destroy the United States system entirely and replacement it with the Russian system.

[Cetacea]

44. Correct

[volstork]

43. Fuck that guy.

I mean, no thanks, but fuck him.

I'm so sick of these obstructing chucklefucks pulling this shit....

[pangaia]

45. Such a sad human being, his fear self-hatred must be overpowering.

I can not imagine living a life like that....

[Pepsidog]

46. Dark day in America. Don't any Dems have dirt on Lindy to shut his disgusting mouth.

[NurseJackie]

47. Well! The delicate Southern Gentleman from South Carolina is having what can only be described as...

... a hissy fit.

[Turbineguy]

51. If I were him

I'd keep things on the low-down.

[smirkymonkey]

57. I think he already is.

[Ilsa]

52. They are drawing more attention to the 2016 cheating

by reminding us of it.

Graham is owned by trump and Russia.

[DFW]

53. Lindsey Graham must have been the kid most bullied at the kindergarten playground

He sure wants his revenge now--on ANYBODY.

He has sunk to the point where the scum at a sewage treatment plant would go on strike if he were to announce an official visit.

[struggle4progress]

54. "And be sure to read Lindsey's Guide to American History! Learn how LBJ blamed Nixon for Watergate!

And how Jimmy Carter blamed the whole Iran-Contra affair on Reagan! Lindsey even exposes how Hillary planned the entire Iraq war in a pizza parlor basement and then blamed Dubya! But there's more! Order now and we'll even send you a fifty five gallon drum of kool-aid -- enough for you to share with family and friends -- absolutely free! So don't delay! Operators are standing by!"

[Stargazer09]

56. Wow

Lindsey has truly lost his mind.

[smirkymonkey]

58. Fuck that little gutter-snipe!

What we need are some rogue undercover Democratic agents who can find out what dirt Trump and the Russians have on the republican members of Congress so we can blackmail them ourselves. Or just out them and get rid of them for good.

[Skittles]

59. what IS the kompromat on that guy

it has to be really, REALLY bad

[Demovictory9]

60. GOP are going to win negative 5% of the black vote

[tavernier]

61. I'm starting to wonder if that is really Graham.

I think someone should get a DNA sample for comparison because I think the real Lindsey has been murdered and a clone like replacement brought in.

[Baitball Blogger]

62. And no one will be surprised when he comes up with his bogus information

right before the election.
