Graham aims to KO impeach case,
talks of abolishing secret FISA court

Senate Republicans are likely to vote to end the impeachment proceedings against President Trump as "quickly as possible," according to Lindsey Graham, the South Carolina Republican who heads the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Graham told Fox News today that, barring a surprise development, he favors holding a quick vote to acquit the President once the House has presented its "joke" of a case. Graham publicly advised the President to go along with that scenario, because the impeachment process is damaging to the nation. Graham said the witnesses Trump would like to have examined in the Senate -- including Hunter Biden -- can be questioned in connection with "the oversight process" -- that is, in non-impeachment hearings.

Graham's committee is responsible for dealing with the impeachment case, but he must work with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, a Kentucky Republican, in determining whether to hold a quick vote to acquit Trump.

Graham rapped Adam Schiff, the California Democrat who heads the House Intelligence Committee, "is doing a lot of damage to the country, and he needs to stop."

Graham said he expects the Inspector General's report will "be damning" on potential abuses in the FBI and Justice Department secret court warrants against the Trump campaign.

Graham observed that the secret court -- the Foreign Intelligence Court -- had taken no action to discipline those who had engaged in deceptions in order to obtain the warrants to eavesdrop on Trump aides Carter Page and George Papadopoulos -- meaning the FBI could listen in on the Trump campaign. The senator said that he wondered whether Congress should permit that court to continue to exist.

We present the above post again, this time
in the new style that we advocate.
