Sen. Graham to Challenge Subpoena: ‘This is All Politics’

ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY…
1947: Alleged and disputed Roswell UFO incident.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) plans to challenge the subpoena from Georgia investigators regarding former President Donald Trump’s involvement with the 2020 election in Fulton County.

Bart Daniel and Matt Austin, Graham’s lawyers, issued a statement wherein they dismissed the investigation as a “fishing expedition.”

“Fulton County is engaged in a fishing expedition and working in concert with the January 6 Committee in Washington,” Graham’s legal team said.

“Any information from an interview or deposition with Senator Graham would immediately be shared with the January 6 Committee.”

The statement comes after the Fulton County grand jury issued subpoenas Monday for several Trump allies, including Graham, Rudy Giuliani, and John Eastman.

“Should it stand, the subpoena issued today would erode the constitutional balance of power and the ability of a Member of Congress to do their job,” the lawyers wrote.

“Senator Graham plans to go to court, challenge the subpoena, and expects to prevail.”

Cheney Gives GOP an Ultimatum

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) says Republicans cannot be loyal to both former President Donald Trump and the U.S. Constitution, calling Trump a “domestic threat.”

“We are confronting a domestic threat that we have never faced before – and that is a former President who is attempting to unravel the foundations of our constitutional Republic,” Cheney said during a speech at the Reagan Library in California.

“And he is aided by Republican leaders and elected officials who have made themselves willing hostages to this dangerous and irrational man.”

Cheney urged Republicans to choose as “we cannot both be loyal to Donald Trump and loyal to the Constitution.”

The Congresswoman quoted former President Ronald Reagan, who said, “it is up to us in our time to choose and to choose wisely between the hard but necessary task of preserving peace and freedom and the temptation to ignore our duty and blindly hope for the best while the enemies of freedom grown stronger day by day.”

Former White House Aide Gives Explosive Testimony

ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY…
1860: Famous debate on Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution held at the Oxford University Museum and dominated by arguments between Thomas Henry Huxley and Bishop Samuel Wilberforce.

A former White House aide gave an explosive testimony wherein she claimed then-President Donald Trump lunged at his security detail and tried to grab the steering wheel of the presidential vehicle after he was told he couldn’t join his supporters at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

Cassidy Hutchinson, who served as an aide to former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, told the House Jan. 6 panel that Secret Service agent Bobby Engel told Trump that they weren’t going to the Capitol because it wasn’t secure, “the president had a very strong and very angry response to that.”

Hutchinson said the then-deputy chief of staff Tony Ornato described Trump “as being irate. The president said something to the effect of, ‘I’m the f—— president, take me up to the Capitol now.'”

“[Engel] said, ‘Sir, we have to go back to the West Wing,’” Hutchinson continued. “The president reached up towards the front of the vehicle to grab at the steering wheel. Mr. Engel grabbed his arm and said, ‘Sir, you need to take your hand off the steering wheel. We’re going back to the West Wing. We’re not going to the Capitol.’” 

“Trump then used his free hand to lunge at Bobby Engel,” Hutchinson said.

However, Trump denied Hutchinson’s allegation in a statement.

“Her Fake story that I tried to grab the steering wheel of the White House Limousine in order to steer it to the Capitol Building is ‘sick’ and fraudulent, very much like the Unselect Committee itself – Wouldn’t even have been possible to do such a ridiculous thing,” Trump said.

Trump Lays Into McConnell Over ‘Career-Ending’ Move

ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY…
1917: 1st US troops arrive in France during World War I.

Former President Donald Trump blasted Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) over the “career-ending” bipartisan gun bill.

“Mitch McConnell’s push for Republican Senators to vote for Gun Control will be the final straw,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.

“Just like he gave away the Debt Ceiling and got NOTHING in return, or handed the Dems a great sound bite and victory with the Infrastructure Bill, which is actually all about the Green New Deal, he is now forcing approval of the FIRST STEP IN TAKING AWAY YOUR GUNS! Republican Senators SHOULD NOT VOTE FOR THIS CAREER ENDING BILL!!!” 

Fourteen Senate Republicans crossed party lines to vote in favor of the bill, including McConnell, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), and Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT). 

The former president had also warned Senate Republicans against voting in favor of the bill earlier this week.

“The deal on ‘Gun Control’ currently being structured and pushed in the Senate by Radical Left Democrats, with the help of Mitch McConnell, RINO Senator John Cornyn of Texas, and others, will go down in history as the first step in the movement to TAKE YOUR GUNS AWAY,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“Republicans, be careful what you wish for!!!”

Trump on the Jan 6 Panel’s Biggest Problem

Former President Donald Trump recently said it was a bad decision for there not to be any Republican representation on the House committee investigating Jan. 6.

“Unfortunately, a bad decision was made,” Trump told conservative radio host Wayne Allyn Root. “It was a bad decision not to have representation on that committee.”

“That was a very, very foolish decision because they try to pretend like they’re legit, and only when you get into the inner workings, you say, ‘What kind of a thing is this?'” he continued.

“It’s just a one-sided witch hunt.”

Republican Reps. Liz Cheney (WY) and Adam Kinzinger (IL) are the only GOP members on the panel, but they have been labeled as RINOs by Trump and his supporters.

“We have no representation on this panel. We should have, certainly, some Republicans — real Republicans,” Trump said in the interview.

“It’s a terrible thing when you look at it. It’s a totally one-sided kangaroo court,” he said, adding: “In a way, the Republicans should be ashamed of themselves.”

Pence Calls for Return to Trump-Era Policies Amid ‘Crisis of Epic Proportions’

Former Vice President Mike Pence blamed President Joe Biden for a “crisis of epic proportions” at the U.S.-Mexico border, calling for a return to Trump-era policies.

“The policies that this administration have implemented are not a reflection of incompetence. The truth of the matter is the Democratic Party today is largely dominated by the radical left. And on their agenda is the goal of open borders, plain and simple,” Pence said during a speech in Phoenix, Arizona.

The former vice president said Biden created a crisis by overturning former President Donald Trump’s border and immigration policies, urging him to reinstate several of them to dramatically reduce illegal immigration.

Pence urged Biden to finish Trump’s planned border wall, immediately deport illegal immigrants who are criminals or gang affiliates, ban “sanctuary cities” in the U.S., reinstate Trump’s “remain in Mexico” policy for asylum seekers, and keep Title 42.

“We know it works because it worked. I was there, standing shoulder to shoulder with President Trump,” Pence said.

What Did Trump Have To Say About the Jan 6 Hearing?

ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY…
1964: Nelson Mandela is sentenced to life in prison in South Africa.

Former President Donald Trump responded to the House Jan. 6 committee’s televised hearing via his Truth Social platform.

“So the Unselect Committee of political HACKS refuses to play any of the many positive witnesses and statements, refuses to talk of the Election Fraud and Irregularities that took place on a massive scale,” Trump wrote.

“Our Country is in such trouble!”

Trump also addressed his daughter, Ivanka Trump, after a video clip of her testimony showed that she accepted former Attorney General William Barr’s assertion that the 2020 presidential election wasn’t fraudulent.

“Ivanka Trump was not involved in looking at, or studying, Election results. She had long since checked out and was, in my opinion, only trying to be respectful to Bill Barr and his position as Attorney General (he sucked!),” Trump wrote.

Poll: Fewer Americans Believe This Claim About Trump

Fewer Americans believe that former President Donald Trump was responsible for the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, according to a recent NBC News poll.

In January 2021, 52 percent of respondents said Trump was responsible. In the latest poll, that number dropped to 45 percent.

Of the 45 percent, roughly 17 percent of participants said Trump is solely responsible, while 28 percent say he is mainly responsible.

Conversely, the percentage of Americans who say Trump was “not really” responsible for the incident increased to 35 percent — compared to 29 percent in January 2021.

The recent NBC News poll was conducted from May 5 to May 7 and May 9 to May 10 among 1,000 U.S. adults. The margin of error is 3 percentage points.

Trump Endorses Kevin McCarthy

Former President Donald Trump endorsed Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), calling him “an outstanding Representative for the people of California.”

“In Congress, Kevin is a tireless advocate for the people of Bakersfield and the Central Valley. He is working incredibly hard to Stop Inflation, Deliver Water Solutions, and Hold Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi Accountable for their catastrophic failures and dereliction of duty,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social. “Kevin McCarthy has my Complete and Total Endorsement.”

However, some of Trump’s supporters didn’t share his enthusiasm for McCarthy.

One Twitter user said the endorsement showed that the former president is off-base, adding, “The people that supported Mr. Trump do not support McCarthy.”

Others indicated they didn’t find McCarthy trustworthy, calling him a “RINO.”

Herschel Walker ‘Mad’ at Trump Over Remarks [Video]

Herschel Walker, the former NFL player and current Senate nominee, said he’s “mad” at former President Donald Trump for claiming he convinced Walker to enter the race.

“One thing that people don’t know is President Trump never asked me,” Walker told rapper and Revolt TV host Killer Mike. “I need to tell him that he never asked. I heard it all on television that ‘he’s going to ask Herschel,’ saying Hershel is going to run. President Trump never came out and said ‘Herschel, will you run for that Senate seat?’”

“So, I’m mad at him, because he never asked, but he’s taking credit that he asked,” Walker added.

Walker was victorious in Georgia’s Republican primary election last week. Trump had endorsed the former NFL star early in his Senate campaign.

Walker credited his religious beliefs as his reason for running.

“I prayed about it,” Walker said. “And to be honest with you, I was praying that God would bring somebody else because I’m happy. My life is doing well.”
