A federal judge on Monday turned down Sen. Lindsey Graham’s bid to throw out a subpoena compelling him to testify before the Atlanta-area grand jury investigating Donald Trump’s effort to overturn the 2020 election.
“Senator Graham has unique personal knowledge about the substance and circumstances of the phone calls with Georgia election officials, as well as the logistics of setting them up and his actions afterward,” May wrote. “And though other Georgia election officials were allegedly present on these calls and have made public statements about the substance of those conversations, Senator Graham has largely disputed their characterizations of the nature of the calls and what was said and implied.
“ his potential communications and coordination with the Trump Campaign and its post-election efforts in Georgia; his knowledge of other groups or individuals involved with efforts to influence the results of Georgia’s 2020 election; and his public statements following the 2020 election—is of great significance to the issue presently before the Court,” May wrote.
May said that even if Graham contended that his phone calls to Raffensperger were part of his official business, that wouldn’t be enough to quash the subpoena — because Raffensperger and his aides said otherwise.
Prison!

TRUMPS ATTEMPT TO OVERTHROW... HOW LAUGHABLE. TRUMP GOING AGAINST THE BEST MILITARY IN THE WORLD? ARE YOU PEOPLE FRIGGIN SERIOUS? LISTEN TO YOURSELVES.
Now Lindsey wouldn't do anything he wasn't supposed to would he? Yes he would. Go get him ....
Surely he'll just plead the 5th?
Excellent.
He's doing his best to delay and appeal but it alp ends with him sitting in front a grand jury Even the current make up of scotus has said No man is above the law including trump specifically they made a statement about truno not being above the law
Is it me or the legal system seems very lenient for old white men?
🎉🎉🎉
Defund the courts!
Get a mop, there is sure to be a piddle puddle under the weasel.
POLITICO LIES.. every single time! I don’t believe anything you people say!!!
WOMP!WOMP!little lyin’lindsey tied his fate to a power hungry facist traitor and instead of reaping rewards he faces charges of trying to subvert election.
It's an all out assault on Trump. If you can't get him one way, try another and another and another and another. We've had it with the Gestapo and or KGB tactics.
Oh no ! The poor thing. I hope Lady Lindsey doesn't get the vapors.
Surely a leading member of the party which touts 'law & order' will happily comply.

Judge: Sen. Graham must testify in Georgia election probeA federal judge on Monday said U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham must testify before a special grand jury in Atlanta that is investigating whether former President Donald Trump and his allies broke any laws while trying to overturn his narrow 2020 general election loss in the state. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis opened the investigation last year, and a special grand jury with subpoena power was seated in May at her request. The judge also rejected Graham’s argument that the principle of “sovereign immunity” protects a senator from being summoned by a state prosecutor. Who is going to compel him? Republicans seem to think they're above the law. Will Graham show up and pull a Trump? (Stay tuned)..... Or what? Can we please hold this man accountable for his behavior? If he does not comply, he must be punished.
