WASHINGTON — Sen. Lindsey Graham said on Wednesday that the FBI was in possession of his phone after he received a message from someone impersonating Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. 'I get a message, I think, from Schumer,' Graham, R-S.C., said during a panel discussion about artificial intelligence regulations at The Hill and Valley Forum. 'It ain't from Schumer.' 'And the next thing you know, my phone is — ' he trailed off. 'I don't know.

'The Sergeant at Arms is investigating a possible hack of Senator Graham’s phone,' the senator's spokesperson Taylor Reidy told NBC News in a statement. The FBI declined to comment and referred NBC News to Graham's office. Neither the U.S. Capitol Police nor Schumer's office immediately responded to requests for comment.
