‘I Don't Think That's a Good Idea’ – Lindsey Graham Says He Won't Call in Obama to Testify
[Breitbart] On Thursday President Trump called on Barack Obama to be questioned under oath before Congress for his role in "the biggest political crime and scandal in the history of the USA, by FAR!"
There he goes, moving the Overton Window again. Until now it was unthinkable that St. Barack might ever be called to account for his actions. Now we can ponder the possibilities while ever more evidence surfaces.
President Trump also called on Senator Lindsey Graham to quit talking and do his job as Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. And there you have it...Trump broadsides another RINO.


The RINO limp biscuit senator told reporters today he would not call in Obama to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Lindsey added, "I don’t think that’s a good idea."

#1 Lindsey "B-B" balls Graham to the rescue.

#2 We're caught between a rock and a hard spot. You don't want to establish a precedent of prosecuting the previous executive. You have that in Illinois, but the Feds act as an outside player. When the Feds are the inside player, it starts to make regime change something that no one wants to be a loser cause they're next, so they rig it so they don't. Game over.

However, at this point, the whole system is so compromised that if the Socialists get power again, they're never going to let it slip from their hands ever. See - Caracas. You are damned if you do and damned if you don't.

#3 Disagree. This is not Illinois. This is a blatant violation of so many foundational principles - of the Constitution, of the electoral process, of rule of law itself - that it simply cannot be allowed to stand.

A conspiracy to use every organ of federal law enforcement and the intelligence apparatus to engage in widespread, systematic, years-long spying on political opponents is beyond the pale.

We have never seen anything like this in modern American history. No precedent. It is FAR worse than Watergate.

Given the existence of ready tools for mass surveillance plus the evident desire of at least one party to engage in mass electoral fraud - and also to trash the rights of the people to peaceably assemble and petition for redress of grievances - we have no choice but to expose this atrocity and prosecute every one of those responsible for it.

Indict Obama, Biden, Comey, Clapper and Brennan. Strzok, McCabe, Page: All of 'em. This must not stand.

#4 ^^^ Try them, then execute them. Every. Single. One. Senators, Representatives, Bureaucrats, Judges, Media Execs/Talking Heads. Anyone that was involved in any way.

#5 Every one of those crooked bastards should be hauled into a federal court, tried and hung.

But never gonna happen with the limped wristed idiots we have in congress.

#11 Someone needs to muzzle Graham and get him off of this train before he helps Obama slip away. The FISA 702 queries were done by NSC staffers inside the White House.

Obama, lazy bum that he is, would not have directed anything but he certainly had knowledge of what Brennan-Clapper's minions were up to.

"Unmasking" is a sideshow. It goes far, far beyond Flynn. This went on for years, it was massive in scope, and the trail goes to the top.

Obama must pay for this.

#13 If I was running the investigation I would say the same thing but in more wishy-washy way, and then bring Obama in as the very last person you have testify in the investigation and ask him any open questions.
