The Senate will not consider the impeachment efforts against President Donald Trump to be legitimate if the whistleblower doesn’t testify, said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who chairs the powerful Senate Judiciary Committee.

“I consider any impeachment in the House that doesn’t allow us to know who the whistleblower is to be invalid because without the whistleblower complaint we wouldn’t be talking about any of this,” Graham told Fox News on Sunday, adding that the process would be unfair because the anonymous person at the center of the impeachment inquiry wouldn’t have to face questioning.
