President Trump asked for former president Obama to testify in Spygate. The extreme unmasking of General Flynn during a transition is worthy of testimony. The prior administration knew his every move as they spied on him.
Obama did far worse things than Bill Clinton ever did and he needs to testify.
It is worse than Watergate as Trump said in his tweet. “Wow, word seems to be coming out that the Obama FBI “SPIED ON THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN WITH AN EMBEDDED INFORMANT.” Andrew McCarthy says, “There’s probably no doubt that they had at least one confidential informant in the campaign.” If so, this is bigger than Watergate!
“If I were a Senator or Congressman, the first person I would call to testify about the biggest political crime and scandal in the history of the USA, by FAR, is former President Obama,” Trump tweeted Thursday. “He knew EVERYTHING.”
“Do it @LindseyGrahamSC, just do it,” he continued. “No more Mr. Nice Guy. No more talk!”
SENATOR GRAHAM WON’T EVEN PRETEND HE’LL DO IT
Senator Graham has pushed back on that. The do-nothing is showing his true colors. He promised hearings and we haven’t seen anything. Now the Senate Judiciary Committee Chair says, “he is “greatly concerned about the precedent that would be set by calling a former president for oversight.”
“No president is above the law,” Graham said in the statement. “However, the presidency has executive privilege claims against other branches of government. … As to the Judiciary Committee, both presidents are welcome to come before the committee and share their concerns about each other. If nothing else it would make for great television. However, I have great doubts about whether it would be wise for the country.”
Graham claims that his panel will “begin holding multiple, in-depth congressional hearings regarding all things related to Crossfire Hurricane starting in early June.”
He is a former president, can invoke the Fifth, and can be called. There are indications his top lieutenants broked the law.
When Graham is forced to act as he gives lip service too, he bolts. He’s a phony. For whatever reason, when push comes to shove, Lindsey is not there for America.

Graham is such a POS. You knew that if he was buddies with little Johnnie McCain, he was a RINO and only concerned about himself. We simply need to rid ourselves of people like Graham and Romney.
Graham was such a vocal advocate for Judge Kavanaugh I had high hopes for him but since then all he has done is run his mouth about Committee this and Committee that but has failed to produce anything of substance. He’s turning into just another lying politician!
For some unknown reason South Carolina loves him. SC is a state full of rainbow people and pussies.
I hold a special despise of Lindsey Graham.
Remember, he absolutely HATED the Tea Party. Why? We did not particularly care what letters followed their names but ready to expose EVERY member of the “Corrupt Bastard’s Club.”
Nor should we forget who his best bud was, the disgraceful McCain.
Maybe because of my training, always pay attention to, not necessarily what people are saying but their body language. I noted early on, Pres. Trump had issues with Little Man, Dr. Fauci regardless of his kind words. Even caught him giving Little Man the Side eye.
Likewise, noticed several weeks ago, there’s something up with Lindsey Graham. His facial expressions, his pallor, definitely something up. After his latest comments, I can not help but wonder if Graham himself will eventually be implicated in the Russia Hoax. And, of course, if he had direct complicity with Obama, would explain everything.
Lindsey has been playing both sides against the middle for 3 decades. Nobody goes unscathed for 30 years in Washington DC without being a major player in the game.
Without doubt, Graham had NO love of Donald Trump. As with many who have coveted the Oval Office for many years, Trump pulled THEIR brass rings, HOW DARE HE?
But Lindsey knows what side of the bread to butter. Trump supporters are intractably loyal, he had no choice but to go with that flow. But also without doubt, Trump as Caesar surrounded by 1,000 Brutus’ with long knives drawn, Graham right hand may be extended but there’s something very sharp in the other hand.
Meanwhile, Lindsey Grahams, “aw schuck’s” hayseed routine is absent of late..
i think you’re right. graham is done and trump will make sure of it.
Lindsey Graham is the consummate party boy. People from his state have said he always promises things, but never follows through.
