Lindsey Graham/Twitter
Lev Parnas, Ukrainian businessman and Rudy Giuliani associate, recently spoke with CNN’s Anderson Cooper where he dropped another bombshell: Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) was “in the loop” regarding the efforts to unearth some dirt on former VP Joe Biden.
Parnas admits that he didn’t work directly with the Senator, and that he wasn’t sure how “deeply involved” Graham was in the scheme. However, Parnas made the bold claim that Graham had “a lot of information about his dealings.”

According to Parnas’s lawyer Joseph Bondy, Parnas was shown a letter by Rudy Giuliani that urged sanctions be levied against various Ukrainian officials including one who ran the company where Hunter Biden was a board member.
This letter was allegedly given to Graham.
Parnas has been in Washington to put “extra pressure” on Republican Senators in hopes they will try to get to the truth.
“It was surreal then to watch Lindsey Graham up there… he’s out there talking about all this stuff, that this is a sham, this should go away, when at the end of the day, he was in the loop just like everyone else.”

Twitter was quick to point out that Graham’s involvement in the scheme is likely why he has been so adverse to witnesses and additional evidence:
Wow Linds @LindseyGrahamSC you’re in this corruption up to your neck aren’t you. Now we know why you fight so hard not to have any witnesses. You do not want them to spill the dirt on you and your cohorts do ya? Was all the money worth your reputation ? Apparently yes. 😡 pic.twitter.com/y2iTFqsiIr

Some even called him out as a traitor:
So the impartial juror @LindseyGrahamSC was already aware and willing participant by concealing the truth in this crime. #GOPCorruptionOverCountry #GOPComplicitTraitors

Others mused that if all the Republicans involved recused themselves, there would only be Democratic jurors left:
I have a feeling if you recused every Republican Senator that had prior knowledge about the effort to dig up dirt on Biden, the Democrats would have a majority in the Senate trial.
