In a statement issued by his attorneys, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) vowed to go to court to fight a subpoena issued out of Fulton County, Ga., looking into possible criminal interference in the state following the 2020 elections.

Graham’s attorneys Bart Daniel and Matt Austin from Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough LLP made the following statement:

“As Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Senator Graham was well within his rights to discuss with state officials the processes and procedures around administering elections. 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. Senator Graham plans to go to court, challenge the subpoena, and expects to prevail.”

The attorneys further claimed the Fulton County investigators are “engaged in a fishing expedition and working in concert with the January 6 Committee in Washington.” They claimed any testimony from Graham would be immediately shared with the panel in Washington.

Graham is “simply a witness” and not the subject nor target of the investigation in Fulton County, the attorneys said.

You may recall: Graham was one of seven people subpoenaed on Tuesday by a Fulton County special grand jury. The others came from the inner orbit of former President Donald Trump’s legal efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

You would, think that , given ALL the evidence they’ve gathered against that dangerous fool, an indictment is indeed just a matter of time. However, we’re talking about Trump. And so far he’s been able to act as if he’s above the law. 

And here’s the deal with me, if Merrick Garland is afraid to indict him, Merrick Garland should resign.
