Graham One Of Eight Republican Senators Spied On By Biden FBI

Graham: “This is chilling.”
WASHINGTON –
U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) today released the following video statement after the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel
revealed
that Graham was one of eight Republican senators surveilled by the Biden FBI.
Excerpts from Graham’s remarks:
“This is chilling.”
“As Chairman of the Judiciary Committee [in 2021], I did the job I felt necessary and to believe that the Department of Justice or a Special Counsel would subpoena who I called, where I called from should bother everybody. It certainly bothers the hell out of me.”
“The FBI needs to be congratulated for finding this and exposing it. [FBI Director] Kash Patel and [Deputy FBI Director] Dan Bongino are trying to clean up the mess they inherited. What happened should unnerve everybody.”
“This was done in 2023 in the middle of a presidential election cycle where I’m supporting President Trump.”
“One way to make sure this doesn’t happen again is to fire the people who were behind it and hold the government accountable for violating the rights and separation of powers that exist in this country…”

In 2023, as a part of Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into President Trump, the FBI subpoenaed phone data from Graham and U.S. Senators Bill Hagerty (R-Tennessee), Josh Hawley (R-Missouri), Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska), Tommy Tuberville (R-Alabama), Ron Johnson (R-Wisconsin), Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyoming), Marsha Blackburn (R-Tennessee) and U.S. Rep Mike Kelly (R-Pennsylvania).
The data collected was from January 4-7, 2021 and shows when and to whom the calls were made, along with the duration and general location data of the call. At the time, Graham was the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
