Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., is the most anti-poker member of the U.S. Senate. So when President-elect Donald Trump's choice for attorney generals went in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee to get grilled for questions last week, Graham thought he'd take the opportunity to bring up the 2011 DOJ memorandum that established the Wire Act as not applying to online poker. In doing so, he did the internet gaming community a favor.
In saying that he opposed the memorandum when it was issued and plans to revisit it, Jeff Sessions, R-A.L., flipped his cards face up early.
