.MaddowBlog: On Mueller report hearing, AG Barr, Sen. Graham failed to do their homework.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham did not do himself any favors with his role in yesterday’s hearing with Attorney General Bill Barr. As a Washington Post analysis made clear, the Republican senator “played pretty fast and loose with the facts.”
The Republican does, however, have an excuse, though it’s not an especially good one: Graham admitted he hasn’t read the Mueller report. It’s easy for a senator to say things that aren’t true about an investigation when he hasn’t bothered to familiarize himself with the details of the investigation’s findings.
But this in turn got me thinking about what Graham and William Barr may have in common: maybe both have struggled because neither one has done enough reading.
