Joe Biden unloads on Lindsey Graham amid signs GOP senators will target Hunter

[RandySF]

Former vice president Joe Biden lashed out Friday at Sen. Lindsey O. Graham, a longtime friend and once-close Republican ally, as Graham stepped up efforts with other GOP senators to make Biden’s son Hunter a focus of the impeachment proceedings.

The eruption shows how bitter the impeachment battle could become — personally enmeshing a top Democratic presidential candidate — as it shifts from a process controlled by House Democrats to one in which Senate Republicans attempt to reorient the focus toward Biden’s family.

Graham (R-S.C.) requested new documents Thursday from the State Department, attempting to uncover additional information related to Hunter Biden’s activities when he was on the board of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma.

“Lindsey is about to go down in a way that I think he’s going to regret his whole life,” Joe Biden said on CNN. Asked by host Don Lemon what he would say to his longtime Senate colleague, Biden responded, “I say: ‘Lindsey, I just — I’m just embarrassed by what you’re doing, for you. I mean, my Lord.’?”

At the same time, two Republican Senate committee chairmen are seeking documents from the Treasury Department for any evidence of money laundering or fraud related to Hunter Biden’s business payments.

5. Excellent point.

6. Loopy Lindsey

became persona non grata to me during the Clinton White House years. If you look back, he acted as a venomous snake. To just hear his name disgusts me.

[Hekate]

7. Joe said it brilliantly, imo. He was dignified, restrained, and yet passionate...

Biden is righteously angry, without ever once losing control. I would not have called it "lashing out," just telling the truth as he sees it and feels it.

8. They don't care if they find anything

They only want the cloud of an investigation.

9. The Dems needs to put him under oath in the House to testify what evidence he has to do this

And demand his origin for this ,his sources , was it first hand or hearsay, did trump or someone for him demand or actively pressure him to start this, then ask him under oath if he has taken money from russia , funneled to him or his campaign, in any way, or told to promote russian services ,putin, talking points and agenda to promote disinformation , and attacks on the Biden's under oath. Under the Senate trial the Dems needs to call him to testify before them under oath his evidence he has to start this investigation since one after another testified no evidence was ever found the Biden's did anything corrupt, and he's promoting a smear campaign for putin and trump. Nunes and Graham are complicit with putin and trump, and the American people have a right to hear them under oath deny it by lying , or tell the truth. They are a daily threat to our national security, especially trump, and if this is allowed to continue , the election fixing or promoting political motivated investigations into trump's opposition, this will get worse from trump and he will escalate how he continues to undermine the rule of law, and use much more criminal tactics like putin has done in russia to weaken OUR country , and OUR Democracy. Demands for Graham and Nunes to step down from their roles in the impeachment proceedings at once should now be called for because they both are complicit in this all.
