I am not sure what happened to Sen. Lindsey Graham but he is not playing games anymore!
In an appearance on Fox News with host Sean Hannity the senator warned Comey that he will have to face the consequences of his actions.
Watch the exchange here!
“Millions of Americans believe that the top level of the Department of Justice and the FBI, they wanted Clinton to win and Trump to lose,” he said.
“They manipulated the law to let her off, manipulated the facts and the law to go after Trump and that’s a big deal to a lot of people,” Graham said.
“So I promise you former Director Comey will get to testify in the light of day. I’ll ask him about the dossier,” he said.
“Was it the chief reason you got a warrant against Carter Page, is it verified to this day? If there was a counter-intelligence investigation opened against the Trump campaign, why didn’t you tell Trump about it so he could do something like you told Feinstein?” the senator said.
“And at the end of the day, how could you write that Clinton did nothing wrong even before you interviewed her, and why did you interview her with two people in the room — her aides — and not under oath? Most people don’t get that treatment,” he said.
“It’s not my job to find out if crimes were committed. It’s my job [to provide] oversight of the executive branch,” he said.
“Did they bend the rules, did the break the rules to get an outcome? Did they mislead the FISA court, do we need to change the rules about FISA courts?” Graham said.
“Are there any rules at all about counter-intelligence operations? Why did you not tell Trump?” Graham said of Comey.
“You told Feinstein she had somebody on her staff working with China, why didn’t you go to Trump to tell him about suspicions about Russia? Was it a backdoor attempt to get into his campaign?” he said.
Graham has been vocal about his support for another special counsel investigation like that of Robert Mueller to investigate the investigators.
“Some prosecutor, not a politician, needs to look at Comey, (former FBI Deputy Director Andrew) McCabe, and all of these characters to find out if in fact, they broke the law,” he said.
“I’m hoping Attorney General [William] Barr will assign somebody to this case with the same resources and commitment to look at them as Mueller had to look at Trump,” he said.
The interview came after Comey spoke with CNN on Tuesday afternoon and acted like he was scared of anyone investigating what he did.
