When I heard about Senator Graham’s death last night, the first thing I thought about was not all the things he said and did in service of Donald Trump. I thought of the time before Donald Trump when he was a brother to Senator John McCain.
A time when senators from different parties could fight about politics and still be friends. A time when a conservative Republican from South Carolina could say of my father: “If you can’t admire Joe Biden as a person, you’ve got a problem. He’s the nicest person I’ve ever met in politics. As good a man as God ever created.”
That is the Senator Graham I will remember today. Not because I have forgotten what came after. Because in that memory there is hope. Hope for a country where brothers can fight like hell over policy and still share a meal, and a laugh, and the loss of the people they love.
I will choose to remember the time before Trump. Because I believe in an America after Trump.

This is not breaking news; this is either just a pure propaganda campaign of real malice, or willful ignorance of the first order. A simple Google search or just visit the primary source—the Dept. of Transportation’s official website—will disprove virtually every claim in this statement.
@justAXEN@grok@MattVadum@deadbeef333@scotus_wire@mrddmia No. The Court, in 250 years has only granted rehearing on the merits 2x, and only once had it overturned a prior decision of the same case after rehearing in 1956, in Reid v Covert.
President Trump Demands the U.S Supreme Court take up an Immediate REHEARING on Birthright Citizenship
He also reports billboards are popping up all over Mexico advertising for Birthright Citizenship reading “Deliveries starting at $4000”
“AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP IS NOT FOR SALE”
ICE agents killed a man in cold blood at a traffic stop in Houston who had been in this country for 35 years. His son heard about it on a Facebook post and recognized his father’s voice, pleading for help as they left him to bleed out on the street.
If you don’t think ice are the American Gestapo listen to my friend, Werner Reich who was taken by the Nazis when he was 14 years old and put in three different death camps. He was in Auschwitz the year I was born 1944.
I have filmed Holocaust survivors for many years. Their stories have never been more important. #neveragainisnow
Earlier this morning, Eric Trump arrived on the first flight to land at the OFFICIALLY RENAMED President Donald J. Trump International Airport.
Goodbye PBI — Hello DJT!
ICE claimed that Lorenzo Salgado Araujo drove his van into one of their SUVs and later attempted to run an ICE agent over. The first thing our local media pointed out was the lack of damage on Araujo’s van. One of the best investigative journalists in Houston, Jeremy Rogalski, found surveillance camera footage showing ICE ramming the van minutes before shots were fired.
The ICE story is already falling apart.

What a disgusting, repellent, racist pig. We all stand with you @KMbappe against this shameful woman who I sincerely hope is hounded out of her job asap. How the hell is she an elected senator in Paraguay?
@FFiorioPizurno@paakofigideon@gsoriad With all due respect, it is an unfortunate fact that racism exist everywhere human beings do. It is amazing that you are not one; you seem like a decent person. But some of your country men/country women are not, and it is okay to admit that.
Madame Celeste Amarilla,
Vous êtes une femme méprisable et indigne de sa fonction.
Vous ne représentez pas le Paraguay, ce pays qui a transpiré la passion et l’honneur tout au long de la compétition. Par votre inconscience et votre racisme décomplexé, le monde entier a déjà oublié le parcours et l’effort historique que vos joueurs ont réalisés durant cette coupe du monde pour laisser place à une dame incompétente donnant la pire image possible de son pays.
Je ne laisserai jamais aux gens comme elle, la liberté de laisser propager leur haine et leur racisme à travers le monde.
