Lindsey Graham Urged Authorities To Shoot January 6th Protesters

[WeaselZippers] Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) reportedly called for law enforcement to gun down the rioters who broke into Congress during the storming of the U.S. Capitol on January 6th.

The Washington Post has released a new retrospective article on the riot Donald Trump’s supporters carried out in their violent attempt to overturn the former president’s 2020 election defeat. The piece offers a massive reconstruction of January 6th, and amid all the shocking content that turned up during the Post’s investigation, the paper presents a detailed timeline of how the situation on Capitol Hill plunged into chaos.

In the Post’s second chapter — titled Bloodshed — the report goes in-depth on how Vice President Mike Pence and members of Congress were evacuated or sheltered in place after rioters breached the Capitol. One anecdote describes Graham’s reaction to fleeing the Senate chamber, including him urging the Senate’s sergeant-at-arms to use guns against the mob.

The Senate and House leaders also had been evacuated by Capitol Police and taken to an undisclosed location, but many lawmakers remained in their chambers for a few minutes before they were led to safety in the Hart Senate Office Building. Sen. Lindsey O. Graham was irate that senators were forced to flee their own chamber. He yelled at the Senate sergeant-at-arms. "What are you doing? Take back the Senate! You’ve got guns. Use them." The South Carolina senator was adamant. "We give you guns for a reason," he repeated. "Use them."

#5 Graham has always been a deep state schmuck. While he has sided more with the GOP than Demons, he is a eGOP squish and always has been. There are other Republican senators I would love to see primaried out ahead of him, but his is in the upper 1/3rd of those I would like to see removed.

#6 We are very lucky that they did not listen to him. It would have been the first shot of a civil war.

#7 I don't remember him saying anything in defense of Derek Chauvin. Seems to be a bit of a double standard.

Did or did not, turned off after Washington Post.

Of course, those who looked like they had stormed windows before then took off like they were off to an objective would have made a scene.

#9 Crapped himself under pressure like AOC. Unfortunately the threat wasn't an actual threat, the two should be tearing into the capital police and the misinformation campaign that exposed them as cowards and fools.

#11 Dunno. Washington Post and Retrospective is a flag.

AOC was going out of her way, hitting the circuits to 'share her reaction.' This is the first I've heard anything about Graham, and while everyone is trying to get out in front of the Carlson Report.

You don't tell the targets of a surprise party so you get a genuine reaction.

#12 True but nobody would be questioning without past McCain-like behavior. Not to be trusted
