It took Kamala Harris losing an entire election and watching three primaries go anti-genocide before she’d even get on the phone with Mamdani or meet with pro-Palestinian activists. Yet it took Lindsey Graham zero effort to get a heartfelt eulogy out of her. That’s who she is.
I don’t think mainstream Dems understand just how incredibly enraged normie liberal voters are by the My Good Republican Colleagues bit and how central it is to their alienation. It’s another substanceless thing the establishment is willing to burn tons of political capital on.
Appointing Lindsey Graham’s sister — who by any metric is woefully unqualified— is genuinely fucking insane. Being a senator is not a lordship. He wasn’t the goddamn Lord of Riverrun. Why can’t Republicans be serious about anything?
lindsey graham was a warmongering psychopath who devoted his life to ensuring the murder of as many brown children as possible. we deserve an opposition party that prioritizes that aspect of his legacy over the fact that they were travel buddies
Last year some regrettable cost cutting decisions were made about foodborne pathogen testing, ending 28 years of screening for cyclosporiasis and quickly catching and quenching several outbreaks. Now we still have no idea what the source of this outbreak is. This is the price!!!
i will say lindsey graham being asked by a reporter how mitch mcconnell is doing, answering “i don’t know, i’m going to check right now” and then dying is hilarious
I don’t know what it’s like to lose a primary in heartbreaking fashion, but I have a ton of for respect people like Kat who jump right back on the horse & actually campaign for candidates they believe in instead of just Twitter-posting or vanishing into thin air after they lose.
My dad traveled every week for work. He would buy a novel before each trip, read it with a black felt tip pen in hand, and censor adult content and cuss words as he read. Then he would give us the books to read upon his return. I constantly had the books taken away from me in elementary school until the adult confiscating my book saw that it was edited.
By the time I finished 5th grade, I'd read hundreds of books that weren't written for children. Dean Koontz, Michael Crichton, Stephen King, Clive Cussler, and more. And that was over and above the classics.
Kids are entirely capable of handling rich worlds and complex ideas. We need to stop treating childhood like an intellectual waiting room.
He likely did this. The pitch of the voice is the tell. He sounds like Homer Simpson when he’s panicking. I’ve observed that reverting to a version of Homer is common w/ men who need to act upset but don’t have authentic experiences to pull from.
I am hearing that on his deathbed Lindsey Graham received the light of Islam and unhesitatingly recited the Shahada. Even now he looks down on the Ummah from the gardens of Jannah. Truly there is no god but Allah, and Mohammad is his prophet!
The number of innocent lives lost around the world because of Lindsey Graham, one of the most bloodthirsty war hawks in Congress over the last few decades, is incalculable.
That should be his defining “legacy.”
