Come on Lindsay, you’re better then that. No member of Congress has ever used the Senate/House floor to grandstand, right? – PB/TK
Lindsay Graham says silencing Elizabeth Warren was ‘long overdue’ – Brandon Morse
According to CNN, Senator Lindsay Graham was not at all having Senator Elizabeth Warren’s political grandstanding during her filibuster for the nomination of Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions to Attorney General. It was during the filibuster that Warren broke a Senatorial rule that forbids one senator from “impugning” another.
“The South Carolina senator appeared on the Mike Gallagher Show Wednesday, where he said Warren reading the letter from Coretta Scott King — in which she expressed opposition to Jeff Sessions’ nomination to the federal bench in 1986 — was defamatory to Sessions, now an Alabama senator. The Massachusetts Democrat was ruled to be in violation of Senate rules for impugning another senator.”
Graham believes that Warren’s only reason for smearing Sessions was to fix herself as a leader on the left, and set herself up for higher office in the future. Due to this, Graham said it was past time for Warren to to be shut down.
“The bottom line is, it was long overdue with her,” said Graham. “I mean, she is clearly running for the nomination in 2020.”
