Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) held a press briefing on Thursday afternoon to address his concerns about security at the U.S. Capitol being breached by what he called “domestic terrorists” during the Jan. 6 joint session of Congress to count Electoral College votes.

“The first thing that stands out to me is how embarrassed and disgusted I am that the United States Capitol going to be taken over by domestic terrorists while we’re in session, transferring power from one president to the other, that a band of people who are terrorists, not patriots, literally occupied the floor the House, drove the Senate, out of its chamber,” Graham said.
