Lindsey Graham, January 6, 2021: "Trump and I... we've had a hell of a journey. I hate it to end this way. Oh my god, I hate it... but today, all I can say is 'Count me out. Enough is enough. I've tried to be helpful.'"
Watch the speech. This is what it means to have no principles, no self-respect. Sad and infuriating at the same time.

We now have Congressmen who proudly side with racists in 1924, who permanently closed the doors of America to nearly all legal immigration for explicitly eugenicist reasons. The USA did not thrive because we blocked Eastern Europeans and sent Jews back to the Nazis. Ridiculous.
Gun violence in our country is so bad that we need to make an extra secure location for the elites but not fix the underlying issue so our kids can enjoy the same freedom and Security
Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, who for the last several months has heavily advocated for the ongoing war against Iran for which he insisted that President Trump did not need the permission of Congress, is now calling for a “congressional review process” for any ceasefire or peace agreement between Iran and the United States.
Congress must oversee and approve of any deal to end the war-that-isn’t, which was commenced and waged without congressional oversight or approval because that would be silly
As I stated before, I prefer diplomacy if it leads to the right outcome regarding the Iranian terrorist regime. I appreciate the hard work of all involved in trying to find a diplomatic solution.
At this early stage, I am extremely cautious regarding what is fact vs. fiction or misrepresentation. That’s why a congressional review process like the one the Senate followed to test the Obama Iranian deal is a sound way forward. Fair and challenging questions with a full opportunity to explain, and a healthy dose of sunlight is generally the right formula to understand any matter.
Simply put, kick the tires.
In an age of creeping relativism, a universal moral law still exists.
Threatening to end an entire civilization of 90 million people in order to bend a nation’s conduct to your will is grossly morally wrong. It is evil. And we should say this loudly.
While covering the latest Israeli settler attack in the West Bank, Israeli soldiers assaulted my photojournalist @cyrilthps and detained my team.
But our 2-hour detention revealed a lot about the motives of these Israeli soldiers: acting in service of the settler movement.

@hecubian_devil The MAGA Bud Lite boycott comes to mind. I’m less sure about the strength of the boycott itself, and am inclined to see it as buoyed by the transphobic backsliding of the Biden era. Budweiser didn’t need much pain to fold.

Interesting, if a diplomatic agreement with Iran should come to Congress for a review and a vote shouldn’t the decision to attack Iran do so as well? Why do you only take your oversight responsibility seriously when there’s the threat of peace instead of war?
