We're going to get to Congressman Vernon Jones in a second. Quick reaction, though, from South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham about this. He also has some breaking news you broke with Maria Bartiromo. We'll get back to the proceedings in just a minute.

This is big news, Lindsey. First, your reaction to the events tonight.

SEN. LINDSEY GRAHAM (R-SC): If we don't make a commercial out of what Herschel Walker said about the president, it's political malpractice. And what this lady said about the right to try should be a commercial.

I want people all over the country to hear what Herschel Walker said about Donald Trump, a 37-year friendship. I can't get out of my mind Donald Trump in the Small World ride in a suit.

So, I just think this is an incredibly powerful one-two punch between Herschel and Natalie and I just hope we'll let the whole world know about it.

HANNITY: Watching you this weekend, you have new information as it relates to the deep state investigation, which would be the Durham investigation.

GRAHAM: Right.

Well, Sally Yates said the goal was to treat both campaigns the same. Well, Ms. Yates, you failed miserably. I found out in March of 2015, the FBI found a plot to funnel money into the Clinton campaign illegally.

The -- one of the FISA warrant, the FBI office in D.C. said no FISA warrant until you tell Clinton about the problem so she can fix it, compare that to the way the FBI treated Trump. They never told him about any of the problems. They used the FISA process to spy on his campaign. This is a very big deal.

HANNITY: Are you confident now that there's enough evidence, incontrovertible evidence that grand juries should now be convened and indictments given? And will that happen?

GRAHAM: Well, I'm looking at two things. The testimony given to the Senate Intel Committee in 2018 by the FBI was completely white-washing what the sub-source told the FBI in 2017 about the reliability of the dossier. I'm now looking at trying to find out, did McCabe and Comey know that the January and March interview of 2017 trashed the dossier as a reliable document?

I think Durham is closing in and I'm closing in. The idea that McComey and McCabe -- Comey and McCabe signed warrants in April or June of 2017 not knowing that the dossier was a bunch of garbage is pretty hard for me to believe. Stay tuned.

HANNITY: Senator Lindsey Graham, thank you.
