Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) this weekend drew ire from Donald Trump’s MAGA base after he dared to criticize the president’s blanket pardoning of the Jan. 6 rioters — including those who had engaged in acts of violence.

The GOP senator called two of President Donald Trump's first presidential moves a "mistake" during Sunday morning television appearances.

The GOP senator said Trump "technically" broke the law by firing several inspectors general, but "has the authority to do it."

Sen. Lindsey Graham said in an interview that he thinks it was a “mistake” for Trump to pardon those who committed violent acts on Jan. 6, 2021.

President Trump issued a sweeping clemency order covering around 1,500 rioters for their role on the Capitol attack that attempted to block congressional certification of Joe Biden's 2020 election victory on Jan.

Two senior Republican senators urged President Donald Trump to rethink his decision to strip personal security from some former Trump administration officials, one of whom was the target of an alleged Iranian plot.

Trump pardoned over 1,500 people charged with attacking the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, 34 of them from South Carolina.

Trump pardoned about 1,500 people who were charged for their actions during the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. That number includes 172 who pleaded guilty to assaulting law enforcement officers. Graham, however, points out that Trump said he would grant the pardons if he was reelected.

S.C., said congressional Republicans who delay funding for border czar Tom Homan could "own another attack on our country."

Pardoning the people who went into the Capitol and beat up a police officer violently I think was a mistake,’ Lindsey Graham says

Senator Graham said while President Trump had the legal authority to issue the pardons, he thought it was a mistake to pardon people who "beat up a police officer violently.... because it seems to suggest that's an okay thing to do".

Sen. Lindsey Graham on Sunday said President Donald Trump sent “the wrong signal” in pardoning Jan. 6 rioters who violently assaulted police officers.
