On Wednesday, Sen. Lindsey Graham again broke with former President Donald Trump, releasing a new statement doubling down on his position that the Capitol rioters should not receive pardons of any kind.
"I reject politically motivated violence in all forms. Those who take the law into their own hands for political reasons — whether they are Antifa, Black Lives Matter protestors, the Proud Boys, or others — must be held accountable," Graham said, calling for the January 6 rioters to be "held accountable."
"I was in the Capitol on January 6 and know it was one of the darkest days in American history," he added.

Rats.
Sinking ship.
Deserting.
If the GOP as a whole would actually do that they would begin a much needed and way overdue course correction.
Here comes the Trump bus, look out Lindsey.
Well ... surprise ... there is a tiny backbone to be found after all.
I give it a week, maybe two before he is back to kissing Trump's ass and agreeing that the "tourists" should be pardoned.
Could be. It is not as though he has any sense of consistency (or principles).
Miss Lindsey must be running for president again.
