Lindsey Graham calls for fair treatment of Gaetz during attorney general confirmation hearings
Senator Lindsey Graham urged his Republican colleagues to avoid a "lynch mob" mentality regarding Matt Gaetz's nomination for U.S. attorney general. He called for a fair confirmation process, emphasizing that unverified allegations should not dictate the outcome. Graham's comments come as Gaetz faces scrutiny over past misconduct allegations, which he denies. Despite these challenges, Gaetz is actively engaging with GOP senators to address their concerns ahead of his confirmation hearings. Graham reminded his colleagues that Gaetz has not been charged with any crimes after a lengthy investigation. He stressed the importance of allowing Gaetz to present his case during the confirmation process.
