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.”
