Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) responded to the Department of Justice Inspector General’s report released on Monday by saying the FBI should have halted their investigation into President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign when it saw that a dossier compiled by a former British spy was phony.
“I believe there will be no debate among reasonable-minded people ... about how the system not only got off the rails but, in my view, became a criminal enterprise to defraud the FISA [Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act] court to deny American citizen Carter Page his constitutional rights and to continue an operation against President Trump as president of the United States that I think was fundamentally flawed and unlawful,” Graham said during a press conference on Monday.
