Sen. Lindsey Graham said Sunday he is willing to emulate Texas state Democrats and flee the Capitol in order to deny congressional Democrats a quorum to pass a massive new “socialist” spending bill.
In refuting a $3.5 trillion spending measure Democrats are eyeing to pass using a simple majority under a budget reconciliation process, Graham, R-S.C., called it the “tax and spend dream of the socialist left.”
And in order to keep it from passing, Graham told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo he is willing to skip town like Texas Democrats to prevent it from passing.
“If for some reason they pass reconciliation, budget resolution to bring that bill to the floor of the United States Senate, the $3.5 trillion bill, you’ve got have a quorum to pass a bill in the Senate, I would leave before I would let that happen,” Graham vowed.
“So to my Republican colleagues, we may learn something from our Democratic friends in Texas when it comes to avoiding a $3.5 trillion tax and spend package. Leave town,” he said .
Last week some 58 Democrats from Texas hopped aboard a chartered flight to D.C. to deny state majority Republicans a quorum so they could not pass a voter integrity bill Democrats oppose.
The stunt led to a threat from Gov. Greg Abbott (R) and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) to have them arrested once they set foot back in the state and have them brought to the capital in Austin to finish a current special session.

“Hell yeah, I would leave,” Graham told Bartiromo regarding how he’d handle the reconciliation vote in the Senate.
“I would use everything in my toolbox. It’s got nothing to do with infrastructure. It’s a tax and spend dream of the socialist left,” he continued.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
