Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has demanded that Senator Lindsey Graham resign from his post.
“The Senate Intel Committee (which is GOP-controlled!) issued a legally binding subpoena, & Sen. @LindseyGrahamSC advised that individual to ignore it,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted.
“If Lindsey Graham wants to work for Trump so badly, he can resign his seat and move his office down a few blocks to do so.”

Dailycaller.com reports: Graham said Monday that if Trump Jr. complied with the subpoena from the Senate Intelligence Committee, he should plead the Fifth. “You just show up and plead the Fifth and it’s over with,” Graham said, noting that his attorney would “have to be an idiot” to allow Congress another bite at him. “This whole thing is nuts. To me, it’s over.”
Graham’s comments prompted a number of tweets calling for his resignation.
