The farce is strong with this one.

Lindsey Graham is off the hook because a few minutes after he told Capitol Police to shoot the Trump supporters, Ashli Babbitt was dead.

Lindsey Graham is probably off the hook along with the other legislators mentioned because legislators actually have a Constitutional role in counting electoral college votes. He would certainly argue that he was acting within his Constitutional duties if he were charged. And he might get off--it would be far from a slam dunk for the DA.

The sitting POTUS, on the other hand, has NO Constitutional role in conducting the election of his/her replacement. And that's not an accident. The founders wrote the Constitution that way for the good and proper reason that if a sitting POTUS were given a role in running the election to determine his/her own replacement, the sitting POTUS would NEVER be replaced except by death. The US would become a de facto autocracy where every POTUS would be El Presidente for Life. Like Russia, like North Korea, like China, etc. According to Steve Bannon, that's exactly what Trump had in mind and why Trump has his a$$ in a crack and Lindsey doesn't.

I'm going to throw out a curve ball. Maybe they will be indited later or....They are COOPERATING. Especially Lindsay. Something just doesn't sit right with me since he is the one who initially got the Governor of GA on the phone for the famous "Find 11,000 votes" call. Graham is cooperating with Fanni to save his own butt from something else coming down the pipeline.
