    Crooks and Liars, Monday - 12/16/2024 - 10:47 AM

    South Carolina Republican Lindsey Graham's words came back to haunt him on Meet the Press on Sunday, courtesy of Kristen Welker.

"Here's what you said on this program the last time Donald Trump was choosing an FBI director," Welker said before rolling the clip. "He has a duty and obligation to pick somebody beyond reproach outside the political lane," Graham said in the 2017 clip.
