Traitor!

"Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) continues to fight his subpoena from a grand jury in Fulton County, Georgia, that wants to hear from him about at least two phone calls he made to Georgia secretary of state Brad Raffensperger to talk about the 2020 election. As of tonight, a judge has stayed the subpoena and on July 20 will hear arguments on whether to reject it.

The editorial board of the Charleston, South Carolina Post and Courier today ran an editorial titled: 'Just testify, Sen[ator] Graham.' It says Graham’s claim that the calls were about election procedures 'never made sense.' Now his lawyers say that he was talking about elections to do his job as the chair of the U.S. Judiciary Committee—a top-ranking committee, by the way—which makes even less sense. The board says it doesn’t think Graham did anything illegal, but asserted that it is the duty of every U.S. citizen to 'comply with a subpoena to testify.' 

'We expect and deserve better from our senator,' it concluded.

And that’s just it, isn’t it? We are hearing now, 18 months after the fact, that our president tried to overturn our democracy, forcing his own will onto unwilling voters. And, at the time, no one in the White House said anything to the public or to our law enforcement officials to stop this deadly attack.

Worse, it appears that a number of our lawmakers were complicit in the attempt to overturn our democracy. The committee has named at least ten representatives who conspired with the president, and another, Representative Barry Loudermilk (R-GA), who gave a tour through the Capitol complex on January 5, but there have been hints that others knew something was up as well, and that some might have been helping with the scheme." - Heather Cox Richardson, July 13, 2022 

I exercised my constitutional right to vote in 2020, as I do nearly every year, but out-of-state forces in South Carolina, in Texas (Sen. Ted Cruz objected to certification of Georgia's election results on January 6), and even in the Federal government have conspired to dismiss my and other Georgia voter's ballots. I take that personally.  You don't get to nullify my vote, Lindsey.  You don't get to dismiss my vote, Ted.  And you most definitely don't get to ignore the consent of governed, Donald!

I will continue to exercise my right to vote and my right to free speech until all of these motherfuckers are out of office and are correctly understood to be the treasonous traitors that they are.
