In a fiery showdown on NBC’s Meet the Press, Senator Lindsey Graham confronted mainstream media spin head-on, defending President Trump’s claim that former President Barack Obama may have knowingly misled the nation over Russian interference in the 2016 election.
This controversy is reigniting deep questions about what Obama knew — and when he knew it — regarding the now-debunked Trump-Russia collusion narrative that consumed the nation for years.
🔥 Graham Slams Media and Dems: “We’ve Been Lied To”
Graham didn’t hold back when NBC’s Kristen Welker challenged him about Trump’s accusations.
“What we’re uncovering now is deeply troubling,” Graham stated. “In 2016, the intel community told President Obama there was no evidence that Russia was trying to change the election outcome. Then suddenly the narrative flipped. Why? What happened behind closed doors?”
Graham didn’t directly accuse Obama of treason, but he made one thing clear: the American people deserve answers.
⚠️ Declassified Docs Suggest Obama Team Knew Truth — And Hid It
The senator pointed to newly declassified files indicating Obama-era officials may have manipulated intelligence — not to protect democracy, but to damage Trump’s presidency before it began.
“These reports show disturbing bias, corruption, and political weaponization of our national security apparatus,” Graham said.
And he’s not alone. Millions of Americans who supported President Trump are now demanding a full investigation into what they call the “Obama cover-up.”

Welker aired a 2017 clip of Graham saying Russia interfered in the election.
But Graham stood firm: “Back then, I didn’t know what I know now. The Steele Dossier was fake. The Mueller investigation was rigged. And the media ran wild with lies. Pulitzer Prizes were given for pure fiction.”
🧾 Mueller, Durham, and the Clinton Connection
Graham slammed the Mueller probe as a “political hit job” and said Special Counsel John Durham’s report exposed confirmation bias and misleading tactics used to justify the Russia investigation.
“Lives were ruined. President Trump was smeared endlessly. Meanwhile, it was Hillary Clinton’s campaign that funded the lies,” Graham added.
🧨 NBC Host Suggests Epstein Distraction — Graham Explodes
When Welker accused Graham of using the Obama controversy to distract from the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, the senator shot back:
“No! I’m trying to expose the truth the media keeps hiding.”
📰 Media Slammed for Burying the Truth
When Welker claimed the evidence wasn’t new, Graham responded: “It’s new to me. And it’s new to the American people who’ve been lied to for years.”
The interview ended with Graham visibly frustrated, warning that attempts to sweep this scandal under the rug won’t work this time.
