(CNN) GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham said Monday that he told the late Sen. John McCain to turn over the dossier of Trump-Russia allegations to the FBI, pushing back against President Donald Trump's assertions that the Arizona Republican helped fan the flames of the Russia investigation. Graham defended McCain's role and said that he told Trump that his close friend's involvement was limited. Graham added: "I told the President it was not John McCain. I know because John McCain showed me the dossier. Turn it over to somebody who's job it is to find these things out and John McCain acted appropriately."
