Former Vice President Joe Biden lashed out at Senate Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-SC) for launching an investigation into whether Biden abused his office when he had Ukraine’s top prosecutor fired while he was looking into Burisma Holdings, the Ukrainian gas company paying Hunter Biden to sit on its board.
“Lindsey is about to go down in a way that I think he’s going to regret his whole life,” Biden told CNN host Don Lemon in a Friday interview in South Carolina.
“I say Lindsey, I just — I’m just embarrassed by what you’re doing, for you. I mean, my Lord.”
“They have him under their thumb right now. They know he knows that if he comes out against Trump, he’s got a real tough road for reelection, number one,” Biden continued. “He knows me; he knows my son; he knows there’s nothing to this. Trump is now essentially holding power over him that even the Ukrainians wouldn’t yield to. The Ukrainians would not yield to, quote, ‘investigate Biden’ — there’s nothing to investigate about Biden or his son.”

On Thursday, Graham sent a letter to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo seeking all documents and communications related to Joe Biden’s phone calls with Ukraine’s former president Petro Poroshenho which occurred Feb. 11, 18 and 19 as well as March 22, 2016, citing media reports that the two discussed firing the Prosecutor General, Viktor Shokin.
In addition, Graham is seeking all documents and communications between Biden, his office, and Poroshenko’s office spanning the period from when Burisma founder Mykola Zlocheveky’s home was raided and Shokin was dismissed.
Graham notes in his letter that Hunter Biden followed longtime Joe Biden aide Tony Blinken over Twitter, the day that Interfax reported that Zlochevsky’s property had been seized - suggesting the two may have discussed Shokin’s investigations, per Politico.
In response to Biden’s comments on Graham, Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani suggested the former Vice President was threatening the Senator, and was “getting to be more and more like my old mafia cases,” adding “They sure do sound like crooks.”
Biden: Lindsey Graham will “regret his whole life”!
This reminds me of Biden’s decree to the media to silence me on September 29th.
Now a threat to a US Senator. This is getting to be more and more like my old mafia cases. They sure do sound like crooks.

I think Mr. Biden is serious and should be taken that why. Doubt me; remember Seth Rich. Remember our beloved President John F. Kennedy. These Democrats and their Leftist allies in the Mainstream Media and activist groups have no regard for others who oppose them. These people are Globalist and Europeans pull their strings. America threw off Europe’s statist yolk in 1776. Europe never accepted defeat and they never will. Sad but true… (Club Rome)
Biden needs a visit from the FBI for threatening the life of a Senator……If WE as ordinary citizens said the same thing…WE would hear a knock at the door !People die at the hands of Democrats and NOTHING happens It seems that if you are a Dem…..anything goes…..murder, bribery, corruption, Overthrow the Gov’t with a COUP D’ETAT of OUR PRES. and the hell with the Constitution……Time to do our duty according to th Declaration of Independence……Alter or Abolish a Tyrannical Gov’t If it is detrimental to the COUNTRY or the PEOPLE. WWG1WGA
I guess dumb ass Joe Biden needs a new TV so he watch and see for himself what he actually said. what a jack-ass.
Not only is Biden serious he is corrupt and needs to be indicted along with his son. Funny how the deep state and media protect all this crooks. No wonder government cost so much. Look at California - being flushed down the toilet by these incompetent boobs
To Arnold Trimble: What are you mumbling about?
Biden is finally “sweating” about thos because he gave his very own evidence of his corruption. Just because he is not the VP doesn’t mean this story cannot be followed up by
the DOJ or maybe some other agency because the DOJ seems to have lots of trouble doing the right thing. Especially since the 2016 election.
JOE BIDEN BRAGGING ABOUT HIS UKRANIAN BLACKMAIL.

Exactly, Republicans should be using his own words to show how he threatened Ukraine to withhold a billion dollars if they didn’t do what he said. These Democrats are so evil , they stay on offense so no one has a chance to catch their breath just trying to defend against their lies. The media goes right along with the lies. Or maybe they are this stupid. Yet they think they know everything. Right, everything the corrupt Democrats tell them
It would be OK if the media WAS stupid…well actually their “front” people must be…or are so highly paid that they “hold their noses” and spout the company line…They are not. For over forty years they have been nothing more than “propaganda mills’ for the political establishment and are fully complicit in ALL their crimes against the “people”…
creepy joe always been stupid and a crook. had some folks fooled for a while and a few dummies still fooled. always fed at the government trough. got caught in his crooked dealings and now squealing like a pig. stupid enough to brag about it on camera and still try to lie out of it. lock him and his sorry son up.
We need to place his sonny boys nuts in a vise and squeeze. We’d soon find out just whats up..
To edward angell: There have been at least 3 investigations of “Biden’s criminality” and nothing-zero-has been proven. Go drink some more Frumpy Kool-Aid.
Only, I repeat ONLY because not only have the DIMS been holding all the cards, they have been dealing from their own deck. The dealer has been exposed as crooked!!!! They wouldn’t convict their own as they are dirty, dirty dealers.
Lawrie;
Straight from Biden’s mouth on TV during an interview on Council Foreign Releations
RE The same Prosecutor looking into Hunter’s deals,
“I’m getting on a plane in six hours, if the prosecutor isn’t fired,
you’re not getting the billion dollars. Well son of a bi_ch. He got fired!”
How did he remember Graham’s name when he can’t remember his own?
What a foolish man. Just like today’s Democrats though, even though he’s out there bragging about his Quid Pro Quo, and the evidence is overwhelming, here he is blowing his mouth off, threatening, when all the evidence is overwhelming. Pathetic little man.
Biden is now in panic mode. He never thought anyone in congress would ever speak against him, one of the good old boys. We are now finding uncle joe is a lot more that we thought as is his son.
Now that he is caught he is threatening? Careful Lindsey, joe might send those Clinton eliminators after you. I’m glad all of us are seeing the rampant corruption at the highest levels of our country.
Thank you president Trump.
To Cp123: And you choose to ignore the rampant corruption of the orange blowhard, his idiot children, and his administration.
Talk about idiot children, have you looked in a morror lately?
Truth always prevails over the lie. Now We The People Demand Justice to be taken against these treasonous traitors of America and we want this public so every country and every nation will see how we handle traitors and punish them all to the full extent of the law! Besides liars always get caught. I say to our President let the trials begin. The Constitution was put into place by our founding fathers for a good reason now it is time to fallow it to the full extent of the law that is within the Constitution. Start from the top and work your way down to the last corrupt congressman and congresswoman. That is all I have to say to all Americans stand together now and Demand Justice be served to all these treasonous traitors.
Me thinks he doth protest too much!
Is he upset because Lindsey not playing his buddy, buddy no more. And he’s pissed because the power player can’t play no more.
Sounds like it to me. That was a threat. iImmediately the red flag laws should go into effect. Take Joe’s shotgun.
So Biden did learn something from Obama! He learned Chicago style thuggery and threats as a means to overcome his own lies!
It’s clearly time to remove and charge ALL NESTING COCKROACHES. If you live in a glass house you don’t throw stones.
This would be a great time for a Clean Sweep both Fore and Aft.
To Robert L. Kahicke: I agree. Time to sweep the orange gasbag and all of his cronies out of DC.
If he was innocent it wouldn’t bother him and he would welcome an investigation. Hell, President Trump handed out the transcript and recorded call and he’s innocent lol
Absolutely!!!! I guess Creepy Joe is exercising his “White Privilege”. He can slander whoever he wants. Remember this entire thing started because he threatened the Ukranian’s to stop an investigation regarding his POS son. Now he is threatening Americans regarding investigating his own corruption. When a leopard doesn’t change its spots. Remember when Biden’s son Beau died - a mere few months later the POS Hunter left his wife and kids to shack up with Beau’s widow. Joe Biden totally approved that too.
Biden has lived off the Government for decades. He is a lying, old man that should be in prison.
Joe Biden told the Ukrainian government that if they did not fire a judicial official within 6 hours they would not get a large payment from the US. That prosecutor was investigating a Ukrainian company that had on its Board Joe Biden’s son. The Ukrainian government fired the investigator within hours and Joe Biden bragged about it on US television. The son was reportedly being paid $50,000+ per month.
Now Joe screams that there was nothing wrong with that. A similar use of his position in China got his son’s company hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Joe screams that there was nothing wrong with that. And this is a guy with that kind of judgement and moral compass who wants to be the president of the United States? Joe we are better than that!
Hard to know where to start, Biden the child molester, Biden the corrupter, Biden the lying cheating thief, gee soooo many choices
Biden threatened Ukraine, & is now threatening Lindsey Graham?????…………I thought the Mafia was disbanded years ago……………..Apparently NOT, they’ve just re-organized and call themselves Democrats!!! Rot in hell Biden!
That is definitely a threat . . . . but quid-pro-quo-Joe BiteMe and the clinton-crime-family may have another threat in mind?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VC1_tdnZq1A
Call 1 800 Hillary for getting rid of your problem/s
Come on Joe, maybe your last time to come clean and maybe you and Hunter can at least walk away with some kind of life after POLITICS. Better that than go down like common criminals, YOUR CHOICE, to pay the PIPER or spend some time in LEVINWORTH!
Joe thinks he is a thug. Joe acts and speaks like a thug. Joe thinks firing a shotgun off his porch is a forceful way to get his opinion across. Joe should be a character in the movie, ” Wise Guys”. He is and always has been arrogant and out only for Joe. He would never serve the American people if elected. He does not know how to get his own ego out of the way to serve others. If you think that you can impeach Trump for that phone call then you will have to give Joe a life sentence for his shake down and bragging about, “Huntergate”.
TERM LIMITS!!!
If Joe has nothing to hide, why would he lash out at such an investigation ? If you’re innocent Joe, embrace it, and recognize that this process will set you free. It will confirm what a great human being and public servant you have been……………..or, will it ? This whole thing is getting to smell worse than standing behind Swallwell during a TV interview. This Country needs a whole lot more Democrats placed under investigation if it is truly going to cleanse itself of the corruption that pervades this Nation. Now I understand why the Democrats are emptying our prisons on us, and taking a stand against incarcerating anyone for any crime. The Dems are trying to set a benevolent stage for themselves. One that allows the criminal element of our society to rehabilitate amongst the people. NOOOOOOOOOOOOT !
Ol’ Plagiarist joe biden, Leader of democrats!
Biden is nothing but a corrupt ass that’s used to sucking up to the liberals. He and Obama make a good corrupt pair
Waiting on my Powerball winnings 2,7 million to TRUMP 2020 fuckin Democrats
the biden family must be indicted.prosecuted and tried for corruption charges in govt..i f the bidens are allowed to get away with this criminal activity, kiss america “goodbye”let’s get off your ass mr. barr=start earning your keep=======would you allow anyone to both commit crimes and also threaten a us senator????????mr. trump must have the swamp drained====barr is not doing well=====he just likes to go to italy and eat pizza.the country is really watching this biden situation.who the hell does biden think he is trying to shake down peop-le both in the law and in the govt???????either the us govt or foreign govt??????????get to work mr. barr or get the hell out!!!!!!
He should not be allowed to run for any public office and should be charged for threatening the life of a senator!!!
To Eileen Jones: How did he threaten Graham’s life? I listened to the interview and read the printed reports. His meaning was that Graham would lose re-election. Wake up and smell the coffee—or covfefe of you prefer.
I know this is a right-wing website, but I am constantly amazed by the seeming lack of interest in gathering information and facts. Like the sad excuse for a president that they adore, they keep repeating the same tired BS over and over. Hey, it works for the orange retard. Keep repeating the same lies over and over and his minions will believe all of it. They’re happy to ignore any and all facts that dispute their beliefs. There is no indication of an ability or willingness to open their minds and even remotely consider even a minor change. And that is sad.
@ lawrie macmillan, talk about drinkin kool ade, you’re just about as stupid as it gets. both bidens are as dirty and almost as big a traitor as the muslime obummer and hitlery cliton. get real investigators not hand picked lackeys like comey n the rest on the STINKIN TRAITOR TRASH POS demorats payroll. it’s sad we got TRASH like th bidens in office but whats worse is the idiots like you that vote for them.
groping, dementia joe needs to take a good look at himself and that junkie son of his and don’t forget obummer in the scheme of things. i guess when you lie long enough you believe your own lies. just got caught with there hands in the cookie jar and got them cut off. an innocent man would welcome an investigation just to clear their name but a guilty man goes on the attack. he needs to be arrested for threatening some ones life but i guess he seen it done to trump so many times and nothing happened i guess he thought he would give it a try. he’s the new face of corruption.
Not a Biden supporter, but does anyone remember the
current President has been associated with
numerous questionable activities. Women who have alleged
harassment and sexual assault, a million dollar fine for using an alleged charity to move money, association with a convicted child sexual abuse, and more. Ethically, the list
is endless, mist recently we abandoned our Kurdish allies, givng a geopolitical advantage to Russia. Under cutting our
relationship with NATO allies, with whom I served, giving an
advantage to Russia. Another small point, he never served
instead he purchased bone spurs. He currently ignores
the daily intelligence which indicates Russia is yet
again attempting to interfere with our election, democratic, process.
Lyndsey Graham, check the tapes. An opponent of Trump’s
as long as he had John McCain to shield him. That speaks for itself. Someone stated if Biden is innocent he should welcome
an inquiry. So too if Trump has nothing to hide he
should welcome an inquiry. Here is a thought both
sides have lost sight of their sworn duties to
serve the people and instead of public servants
we have polarized politicians.
Robert
You reading the Steele dossier? You know that even McCabe said it wasn’t verified. Actually Steele said it couldn’t be verified.
And regarding giving the advantage to Russia, go see Obama and Clinton. The Uranium One deal to Russia who at the time FBI KNEW were working with Iran for their nuclear program.
Now Iran has a nuke. But don’t worry, President Trump has been very TOUGH on Russia, even gave Ukraine weapons to protect themselves.
Oh and President Trump will get “due process” in the Senate. Looking for someone hiding something, go see Schiffy Schiff and his basement Star chamber. He definitely has LOTS to hide.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD BLESS THE USA!
Yep, Slow Joe is threatening Rep Graham. That’s all a Democrat knows how to do when they are CAUGHT lying, cheating and stealing.
Oh well Slow Joe, you did it. Obama allowed you, along with what he allowed Clinton to do thru the State Department. Shame, shame.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD BLESS THE USA!
Biden is a wanna be gangster and that old fool talks like he has enough strength to actually beat on other people , the only harm he himself can cause to senator Graham is by having a heart attack during the fight and Graham would be arrested for accosting a senior citizen. But he does have enough gangster friends who will do his dirty work. If he and his son have nothing to hide they should welcome the chance to prove themselves innocent instead of threatening other people just as he threatened to withhold aid to the Ukraine if they didn’t fire the prosecutor looking into his son. You should have stayed in hiding old Joe just like you did for eight years as Obama’s sidekick Obama, Biden and Brennan could have been known as the new 3 stooges.
It is so hard to believe that there are people who call themselves Americans who are condoning what the democrats are doing! Do you have a brain in your head?

“I’m not saying Joe did anything wrong, but I want to see the transcripts, and if there’s nothing there I’ll be the first one to say there’s nothing there,” he added. “I believe that Hunter Biden’s association on that board doesn’t pass the smell test.”
Definitely doesn’t especially when Slow Joe did his quid pro quo to get a prosecutor out so he wouldn’t look into what little Hunter was doing.
I think he did LOTS of things wrong. But hopefully you will let We the People see the transcripts.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD BLESS THE USA!
https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2019/11/25/sen-blumenthal-lindsey-graham-will-regret-investigating-biden/
Gee a Senator now threatening Senator Graham. No Sen. Blumenthal, I think you and your Democratic ilk will regret this. Joe Biden needs to come clean for what he did, along with his Son. Know you let Obama and Clinton skate, but not now. Not after 3 years of constant harassment of our President for crimes Clinton/Obama/Biden did.
‘This Ukrainian theory is one of the central tenets and tropes of Russian propaganda and disinformation.”
Yep Russia, thru a corrupt Ukraine, got a Corrupt Former President, Former Vice President, and two Former Sec of States to sell OUR strategic asset called uranium, so that Iran could build their nuclear program. Yep corrupt bedfellows.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD BLESS THE USA!
