“You’re becoming the judge and jury. It is not your job to tell us what we need. It is your job to comply with the things we need to provide oversight over you,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said in a 1998 clip.
Fox News host Chris Wallace on Sunday forced Senator Lindsey Graham to watch a 1998 clip of himself talking about the dangers of ignoring subpoenas from Congress during an era when he was leading the impeachment effort against former President Bill Clinton.
“You’re becoming the judge and jury. It is not your job to tell us what we need. It is your job to comply with the things we need to provide oversight over you,” Graham can be seen saying in the December 18, 1998 clip. At the time, he was a member of the House of Representatives and one of the managers — de facto prosecutors — in Clinton's impeachment trial before the Senate.
"If Clinton had stiffed Ken Starr, that’s different," the Republican senator continued."What [Democratic House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold] Nadler is doing is trying to destroy the president and his family. If I were the president, I would fight back against this political revenge coming out of the House.”
Attorney General William Barr provided Congress with his summary of Mueller’s report on March 24, two days after the special counsel finalized his findings. In the four-page document, Barr said Mueller neither exonerated nor indicted Trump with regard to whether he obstructed justice, but the attorney general indicated he saw no grounds to pursue criminal proceedings against the president.
