Sen. Lindsey Graham agreed Tuesday to accept service of a subpoena for his testimony before a Georgia grand jury investigating possible criminal meddling in the 2020 election by then-President Donald Trump.

But Graham, R-S.C., still retained his right to challenge the legality of the subpoena, a court filing showed.

The Atlanta-based grand jury is seeking evidence related to efforts by Trump and others to get Georgia officials to overturn the election won there by President Joe Biden.

Graham’s agreement to accept the subpoena likely will streamline his dispute with Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis over the demand for his testimony.

He still won't appear. This is a delay tactic.

1. Headline from Rawstory is wrong

They do that to entice readers.
All he did was agree to skip the phase where the court would order him to accept the subpoena. He will still contest in court whether it is legal and binding on him.

3. Raw Story is just a liberal Drudge Report; their headlines are deliberately tendentious

in order to attract the clicks, and are almost always inaccurate or even downright wrong.
