graham: say again. miss yates: i did not authorize it because i was not told about it in advance, but that is not the same thing as a saying there was not a legitimate basis for it. chmn. graham: so you believe there was a legitimate basis for it? miss yates: yes. had evidence that the russians were attempting to influence the election. chmn. graham: the election was over. miss yates: if you will give me just a second, i will lay it out for you. chmn. graham: no. i will ask questions and you will give me answers. what was the basis of the general flynn interview? was it part of crossfire hurricane? ,iss yates: my understanding yes, it was. --n. graham: was it part right. please. we are talking now about the interview on january 4. was it to determine if there was a violation of the logan act? miss yates: no. it was not about the logan act per se. it was to find out about his conversations he had -- the. graham: do you have transcript of his comfort -- did you have the transcripts of his conversations be

i'm the guy who can beat lindsey graham?ld people i'm going to run for united states senate, they said that's great, jaime and turned around and chuckled. because many people didn't take me seriously, but, you know, others, folks said that, you know, you can't win. you can't win against a guy who's been there for 25 years, a guy who flies around on air force one and golfs with the president of the united states. but this is the thing. all my life, i've beaten the odds, you know. i grew up in a small, rural town. my mom was a teenager when she had me. my grandparents helped raise me. they didn't have much education. in every step of my life, people said you can't do this. you can't go to college, i went to yale. you can't get a degree, i got one in georgetown. you can't be the chair of the democratic party, and now i was the first black chair. and now folks are telling me, jaime, you can't beat lindsey graham. well, we just beat him last quarter. this quarter, we doubled, almost doubled what we raised. because we're going to

senator graham may not even need that letter though.king points released but his committee are dated february 14, 2018. according to previously released documents from the department of justice and everybody there over at the senate judiciary committee let the senator know that the former associate deputy attorney general, scott schools, sent an e-mail on the very same day saying that he will be at the senate select committee on intelligence with andy like most of the day. now, it would not be a stretch of inferential logic to assume andy is none other than former acting fbi director andrew mccabe. perhaps we here at "lou dobbs tonight" are solving this mystery. well, the truth is that the conservative treehouse has been solving this mystery for quite some time. we would urge the committee to go over and read through their offerings. it always pays off. volume three of the senate intelligence committee's own russia report also shows andy mccabe was interviewed by the committee on, are you ready for this date, senator graham? february 14

graham: now senator hirono. bias indid not find any opening up the investigation, but he was dumbfounded by the series of events that occurred, including manipulating evidence and the withholding of information from the court. he said, that is hard to explain. not for me it is not. senator hirono? sen. hirono: thank you, mr. chairman. the person who has politicized the department of justice is the current attorney general bill barr. there has been a lot of talk about the errors and omissions in the fisa application process and the ig investigation where they interviewed 100 people and looked at a million documents and as miss yates just testified there was no finding a political bias or improper motivation in the opening of that investigation. christopher wray, the fbi director -- has taken more than 40 corrective steps to address the concerns. director has warned that russia is engaged in information warfare and even as we speak they are continuing to interfere with our 2020 presidential election. their interfe

he interviewed graham as well and senators not on graham's judiciary committee.e in the date telling the federalists under previous judiciary the practice was to invite all committee members to attend. graham didn't even tell senate republicans on his committee poorly contacted graham's office for comment. not surprisingly we have yet to hear his response. text messages reveal how former senator john mccain associate david cramer who stories from christopher steele the author of the fake dossier to the left-wing media. the text reads in part quote the flynn called story is picking up legs think it's time to get that other story out there. that's a reference to a column about flans contact with russian ambassador sergey kislyak. the message also say ignatius is the one i will feed it to refer to them to "washington post" columnist david ignatius. and a win for the trump campaign and i went judge rejected 50,000 absentee ballots because they were. filled up with voter information bridge earlier this month the trump campaign and republican groups of the state filed

this would be massive if lindsey graham loses. he is up against a formidable candidate, a candidate from south carolina and a candidate's whose message is, okay, look this isn't even about trump. what kind of bacon is lindsey graham bringing back to the people here? that's the strategy democrats have figured out. you can argue about trump. if your senator is spending more time yelling and screaming at impeachment hearings than he is building roads, building bridges

graham didn't even tell some of the republicans on his committee.ot surprisingly, have yet to hear his response. text messages reveal how former senator john mccain associate david kramer was feeding stories from chriser -- chriser the steele, the author of the fake dossier, to the left-wing media. quote: the flynn call story is picking up blades. i think it's time to get that other story out there. that's a reference to a chum about flynn -- column about flynn's contact with russian ambassador sergey kislyak. the messages also say ignatius is the one i'll feed it to, referring to washington post columnist david ignatius. >>> and a win to tell you about for the trump campaign. an iowa judge rejected 50,000 absentee ballots because they were prefilled out with voter information. earlier this month the trump campaign and republican groups in the state filed lawsuits to invalidate those ballots saying voters should fill out their own ballots to protect from fraud. joining us tonight, tom fitton, the president of judicial watch. his new book is "a repub

graham says the fbi said there was no reason to doubt the controversial report back in 2018.ow now, could criminal charges be coming? here to react is former florida attorney general, pam bondi. good to see you this morning. thanks for joining us. >> good morning, jillian, thanks. jillian: what do you think? what do you see coming? >> i hopefully see some indictments coming. this, what lindsey graham said is so important, because we have known this steele dossier was crucial in spying on the trump campaign and frankly the president-elect at the time of the united states. we know it's lies. the american people know it was based on lies. when you go to get a fisa warrant, it's one of the most important things you can do, and to obtain that warrant to spy on other americans even more importantly the president of the united states, you have to swear under oath that when you speak to a judge, a court, that those representations that you're using to spy are true. here we all know that they were based on false testimony. we talked about that many times. but what senator graham is so

here is what senator lindsey graham said on fox, i think if mitch can get one half of the conference, that would be quite an accomplishment. referring to the republican conference, senator graham, south carolina is saying if mitch mcconnell, mitch mcconnell and the republican leader can get half of the members of the republican senate caucus to do anything, that would be quite ag accomplishment. i want all of us to think about what that means, what it means is that many of her colleagues are happy to pack that up and go home and they're not doing anything because they don't think we need to be doing anything. and that mr. president is really why we are not here. that's also why you sell the trump administration and secretary mnuchin in the chief of staff mark meadows walk away from the negotiating table. >> they understood that they reached what was a compromise, senator graham said half the republicans would oppose it because they would oppose anything. so that why you have the trump administration walk away from the negotiating table and refuse to come to a sensible agreement. and w

that lindsey graham is very different than today's lindsey graham. i like to say that was 1.0.ng against lindsey graham 2.0, a man who hasn't had an in-person town hall in three years, a person who said over our dead bodies will he allow an extension of the federal unemployment benefits. we need someone who is going to work for south carolina and not work against her. and that's why this campaign has gotten so much energy and momentum. as i've been saying from day one, we are about building a new south. a new south that is bold, that is inclusive, that is diverse. that's why we're outraising him, that's why we're tied with him in the polls and very soon, craig, we hope to be ahead of him in the polls. if folks want to be a part of this effort, go to jaimeharrison.com and join the train. >> you always manage to work in the website. let's talk about your previous job as dnc chair there in your state. as we look ahead to next week's virtual convention, what do you think the party needs to do, to accomplish? this is obviously going to be a very different convention. are you concern

graham. we all worked for mrs. graham. the other great story about that is the "newsweek" used to be close on saturday nights and it would appear sunday night usually in washington. we had an item in the front of the magazine about a sitting senator, not here, that was just woefully wrong, and senator called mrs. graham on monday morning and let her know that he was not wildly pleased with this. i happened to be in his office, he was a washington bureau chief that morning and mrs. graham got the call from the senator. she hung up the phone and called evan and i could hear her voice on the phone. now i think it's meryl streep. evan charmingly but ineffectively quoted phil gramm who had said bam, i'm sorry but as your husband said it's just supposed be the first rough draft of history. in that wonderful mrs. graham voice i heard through the phone, but does it have to be so [bleep] rough? [laughing] so i think they captured her. >> several of us here new and she would have been beyond thrilled to have meryl streep -- i think

senator graham? senator graham: thank you. to put this into perspective, to those who accuse the united states of being a totalitarian state, i do not buy it, because i do not remember this in germany. calling the gestapo in and who you are beating up and why. i don't remember open press of what is going on and talking about the press. these things have been covered. i want to live in america that cops are held accountable. do both of you agree with that? >> yes, sir. senator graham: you wear a gun and badge you have a lot of power and your actions need to be judged and monitored, correct? you both agree with that? >> yes. graham senator graham: you want to live in a country where they have got your back? right? >> yes, sir. senator graham how many people : have been prosecuted -- any prosecutions in the making for the 200 something injuries? mr. cuccinelli: there are. the exact number, i do not know the exact number of cases. ms. cox: yes, currently, out of the district of oregon, we have 97 arrests. senator graham: i'm going

senator lindsey graham thank you we'll be right back. we made usr veterans like liz and mike. an army family who is always at the ready. so when they got a little surprise... two!? ...they didn't panic. they got a bigger car for their soon-to-be-bigger family. after shopping around for insurance, they called usaa - who helped find the right coverage for them and even some much-needed savings. that was the easy part. usaa insurance is made the way liz and mike need it- easy. inflammation in your eye might be to blame.ck, usaa insurance is made the way liz and mike need it- looks like a great day for achy, burning eyes over-the-counter eye drops typically work by lubricating your eyes and may provide temporary relief. ha! these drops probably won't touch me. xiidra works differently, targeting inflammation that can cause dry eye disease. what is that? xiidra, noooo! it can provide lasting relief. xiidra is the only fda approved treatment specifically for the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease. one drop in each eye, twice a day. don't use if you're allergic to xiidra. common s

and chairman graham asked what to do about restrictions. and i give it to the ncaa, don't give the ncaa in a way to wield-- congress can put forth legislation to actually prohibit use of athletes with nil deals. >> if we could we'll do another round. i want to make sure that senator sass and others-- >> thank you, chairman. thank you all for being here, i have a bunch of questions that senator booker is going down the lane. and he's also going to praise nebraska football and he made a pledge to recognize the winningest team in the last 50 years and that will take up most of his second round i think. and dr. emmert to start with you, these are not hostile questions they're genuinely sort of partially confused set of tangled issues before us. it seems to me that a lot of the medical risk and loss of value issues are at the forefront of a number of our minds and yet the name, image and likeness are first mostly because they bubbled up from the states in response to lawsuits. i'd 0 love to have you help clarify if you would. i think california

so the bill graham voting center will open on october 5th at 8:00 a.m. and be open daily except for the weekends, the first two weekends -- first three weekends, from 8:00 to 5:00 and opening from 10:00 to four before the election. now, the entire time the center is open, it will have ballot drop-off service and so, if people have voted their ballot and just want to drop it off and get it to us, we'll set us stations at bill graham so people don't have to get in line or congregate in number to drop off their ballot. and so, in compliance with public health guidance, they will adopt protocols at the voting center. the department will set up ballot issuing stations and voting boths to facilitate social distancing and sanitize voting supplies, equipment and high-touch surfaces. voters will be offered face coverings, hand sanitizer and gloves and are offering this service provided in multi-lingual notices at the voting center. and as i noted, to minimize congestion, there will, two ballot controversy-of drop-off . starting october 31st, the department willin

so senator graham, south carolina, is saying if mitch mcconnell, if mr. mccullough, if the republican leader can get half the other republican senate of the to do anything, that would be quite an accomplishment. i want, i want all of us to think about what that means, what it means is that many of our colleagues are happy to have packed up and a gone home and tt we are not doing anything because they don't think we need to be doing anything. that, mr. president, is really why we are not here. and that's also why you saw the trump administration emissary, secretary mnuchin and the chief of staff mark meadows, walk away from the negotiating table. because they understood that if they reached what was truly a compromise, a principal compromise, as senator graham said, have the republican caucus would oppose it because they would oppose anything. so that's why you had the trump administration walk away from the negotiating table and refuse to come to a sensible agreement. and what did we get instead wrecks because they walked away from an agreement we had the

here was a reaction, senator lindsey graham. the timeline, they knew in august of 2016, reconfirmed in january of 2017, and jim comey signed the first order but told it was salacious and unverified but on the fisa application said verified. >> in january 2017, they found the russian source who is not based in russia, who was a steel employee here in america, used to work for that is to do in january and march of 2017. basically told the fbi that the dossier is a bunch of hearsay, never corroborated, take it alll with a grain of salt and continue to use it against carter page to get a warrant in april and june. so here's what we found. horwitz found us, not me. he came up to me during a briefing about thebo fiasco and said we found something you need to look at. somebody found a briefing paper prepared by the fbi in 2018 to brief the senate intel committee. apparently, somebody on the intel committee and the senate wanted to be briefed about reliability of the sub source. we found that briefing paper and they told the senate inte

lindsey graham, the senator, asking her.s comey didn't let you know certain things before it was happening. did he go rogue?" imagine how frustrating it would have been for anybody working at that point for him, and her position, not to know the important things that were happening before she would be held culpable. and she is held accountable for this, isn't she? >> harris, she signed off on every single one of those fisa warrants that were submitted to the court. >> harris: now she says she wished she hadn't. >> clearly. she's got to say that, right? otherwise she'll have submitted knowingly false information, false documents to a federal court, which come in and of itself, is a crime. she is in a very tough position, but, frankly, facts are stubborn things. there is no explanation. when she walks out of that january 5th meeting with obama, with biden, and the rest of the crew, she sits down and says -- how can you not turn to jim comey and say, "what the attic is going on here?" you report directly to me, jim. how is it t

maria: senator lindsey graham with breaking news coming up house minority leader kevin mccarthy is here taking us inside of congress' failed stimulus negotiations he'll tell us who he thinks joe biden's runningmate will be and we'll have a lot more coming up on "sunday morning futures."

senator lindsey graham with that update. also tonight, panic has set in among democrats and the media mob. we're going to analyze the latest insane conspiracy theories, all straight ahead. first, we must ask the obvious question. the media mob, the democrats, they are avoiding it like the plague. now, i know for a fact, privately, they are scared to death about this. what is wrong with joe biden? what is going on with joe biden? the question is this: does this 77-year-old man really have the stamina, the strength, the mental acuity, mental alertness to serve in the toughest, most demanding job on earth? now, in 1984, similar questions were posed to 73-year-old president ronald reagan.in that was during his reelection campaign, and here's how reagan famously responded. >> i will not make age an issue of this campaign. i am not going to exploit forig political purposes my opponent's youth and inexperience. [laughter] >> sean: that race ended right there. 49-state sweep by ronald reagan we saw a much different responsedi from j

and now senator graham wants answers. senator graham says people should go to jail for this.the fisa court. we have congressman guy reschenthaler from pennsylvania. shouldn't they throw the book at them? isn't this per jury? >> people should go to jail or lose their bar license, be fired from the fbi because at the end of the day some individuals in the fbi, top echelon, lied to congress and lied to the fisa court to get warrants to spy on president trump and then candidate, also when he was president. elizabeth: so how did the steele dossier, this opposition research funded by democrats, court documents show, hillary clinton's campaign was going to use that opposition research to contest the 2016 election if hillary lost. how did that get into the fbi? how was it used by the fbi to spy on the trump team? and that it seems like what is going on here, sir, with not telling the senate what was going on in the fisa court, the fbi officials were using it as cover, the cover to keep gravitas of steele dossier up and credible in the media in order to keep going after the trump team

graham: u.s.ompanies really dependent great deal on supply chains that spread across the world, but especially in china. if something like a cold war or a really hard decoupling were to happen, that will cost a lot of money and a lot of effort to get new supply chains, and some diversification was already coming. labor prices in china have been rising. some manufacturing is going to southeast asia and india and elsewhere in the world. but forcing a rearrangement based on geopolitics and not on market demands is going to be very costly for many companies, especially someone like apple who has invested so much in a highly advanced supply-chain in china over the years. tiktokmeantime, you have still doing business deals, striking a $10 million deal with the new york yankees. do you believe tiktok and wechat are actual security threats? graham: well, it is a matter of degree. any mobile app that collects a ton of information has a bit of a security concern, privacy concern, and it is heightened it cer

maria: so now, we know senator graham told us, weeks ago, that the fbi briefed the senate intel committee about the dossier, in february of 2018, a year after
