Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said during an interview over the weekend that President Joe Biden could be open to criminal prosecution over the effects of his historic border crisis if the U.S. Supreme Court rules that presidents do not have immunity from prosecution.
Graham made the remarks during a Sunday Fox News interview with Shannon Bream while discussing the forthcoming ruling.
“Most Americans believe that they’re not safer under President Biden than they were Trump,” Graham said. “[Senator] Chris Coons, a dear friend, said that there’s a good case to be made, that you’re safer today than you were when President Trump was president. If you believe that you shouldn’t be allowed to drive. That’s silly. That’s dangerously wrong. The border is beyond broken. You have wars in Ukraine. You have the Middle East on fire. When it comes to enforcing the law, Joe Biden has been beyond reckless. He’s taken a parole statute that’s limited in nature, and is given a million people parole.”
“Laken Riley’s murderer was paroled because they had lack of capacity in El Paso,” he continued. “They let him out under the parole statute, because they were full, there’s nothing in the statute says you can go cuz you’re full. And he killed this lady. On and on and on, all of these women who’ve been raped and murdered have one thing in common: The people that killed them, raped them, and murdered them were in our custody and let go, I think illegally. So Joe Biden better hope and pray there’s presidential immunity, because when he allowed the killer of Laken Riley to be released on parole because lack of capacity, I think he’s subject not only lawsuit, but criminal prosecution, if there’s not presidential immunity.”
