Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) threw his support behind at least two of President-elect Donald Trump’s nominees during an interview over the weekend.
Speaking with Kristen Welker during a Sunday interview on NBC News’ “Meet The Press,” Graham backed Trump’s picks for Secretary of Defense and Director of the FBI.
Graham said that he would vote to confirm Pete Hegseth to be the next Secretary of Defense unless something unforeseen were to arise.
“All of these are anonymous allegations,” Graham said in response to some of the salacious allegations Hegseth has faced in the media.

“He’s given me his side of the story. It makes sense to me. I believe him,” he continued. “Unless somebody is willing to come forward, I think he’s going to get through. Remember, Kavanaugh. Five people accused Justice Kavanaugh of misconduct. Three were outright lies. The other two, I think, were not credible. So we’re not going to let that happen to Pete. You’re not going to destroy his nomination based on anonymous sources. People have to come forward and make credible allegations, and we’ll see if they do.”
