Even amongst the filthy, corrupt coven of misfits that is the GOP, Lindsey Graham is one of the very worst. He’s a closeted hypocrite coward who has no principles except whatever serves him best in that moment. Republicans are all shitty in their own unique ways, like snowflakes formed of crystallized sewage. But Graham is one of the most insufferable. His theatrical grandstanding in the sham 2018 Kegs hearings was unforgettably repugnant. No victim, however courageous, would dare come forward after Blasey Ford was treated that way. Screw him.

Anonymous sourcing didn't seem to be a problem before when GOP "whistleblowers" were involved, their names and info had to be kept "secured", but NOW if they're anonymous, they're implicitly lying. Odd how that works, isn't it? Well at least we can count on the MSM to call out...oh, right, they're on the side of the evil fascists now too.

I have always thought there is one person who LG has always loved…his sister. It is my contention that the intel on LG is about her and proof that she killed their father (who was a drunkard and probably molesting her…he probably did something to LG, too). She was 12 and alone with him when he had a “heart attack” and died. LG rushed home from the military academy he was attending (in another state I think) and that was that. That and LG is as awful as his father…he had become the monster he hated.

Ta, Marcie. The next time someone discovers a new species of remora, s/he should name it after Lindsey Graham.

The 'we' in "somebody we all can rally around" seems to be extremely narrowly defined. Who do we mean exactly, Lindsey?

Don't let them make Hegseth's confirmation about the allegations. The guy doesn't know how to do the fucking job, and it's a pretty important job. He's never run anything, let alone an organization with an $800 billion budget and a pretty important mission.

Lindsey styles himself as a hawkish defense expert. Ask him about Hegseth's capability, and push back hard when he weasel-words that answer. Dig up everything he's said about every past nominee from either party and throw it back at him. DO YOUR FUCKING JOB AS A JOURNALIST.

Jesus Christ, we are so fucked right now.

The prior two times Hegseth was in charge of organizations--both considerably smaller than DOD--he ran them both into the ground, as he was too busy drinking and skirt-chasing to be effective and/or organized. He was asked to leave both times.

What kind of horrifying kompromat does Russia and/or T***p (distinction without a difference) HAVE on Graham to make his current public profile, an amoral, toadying, treason-adjacent coward with a time-share up the Great Man’s butthole look like the BETTER option? 😳 Is he worried about being outed? We already know about that. Him and Tim (but I’m married now!) Scott. Nobody cares. If THAT’s what he thinks is worth selling his soul for, he’s even more fucked up than we thought.

😆😆😆 He’s still self-comforting over Boof Kavanaugh, so I’d say this is accurate.

What blackmail does DJT have on Lindsey? I would love to take a peek at that file.

Someday we will learn what it is that Trump has on Ol' Bottom.

Or, who knows, maybe he's just so insecure that he thinks he can't win reelection in South By God Carolina unless he's see as so far up Trump's butt that only the souls of his shoes are visible.

Yeah, sic.

The Russians showed Donold the kompromat that Kremlin hackers stole from the RNC in early 2016.

He's been using it to control the old gop stiffs ever since.

Could be! But I'd have to see some evidence before I actually believed this.

Remember when the Russians hacked BOTH the DNC *AND* the RNC before the 2016 election?

It's okay if you don't, because the DNC hack was covered in headlines and bold type and the RNC hack in little bitty letters

Lindsey Graham is backing Hegseth because Trump told him to. Graham is shit-scared that one word from Trump will end his political career for good; Trump barely tolerates him as it is. Think of it as the Thin Ice Follies.
