OMG it must be so embarrassing to be Lindsey Graham right now
Lindsey Graham. First, Russia declared him a terrorist. Then he was mercilessly booed at a Trump rally in South Carolina. And now he was just read by Hillary Clinton on Twitter.OK, let’s start with Russia…Earlier this month, Vice reported that the gay-hating senator’s name was on the country’s secret “most wanted” list when the Russian Internal Affairs Ministry’s database was leaked online.
He was among roughly 100,000 people who are wanted by the Kremlin.Stay woke with our daily briefing while staying informed on all things LGBTQ+ entertainment, life, and more!Russia first opened a criminal investigation into him after he met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in 2023, although it didn’t say what crime he was accused of committing.Lindsey Graham has been having quite a week, and it’s only Wednesday.But according to Politico, after he called Putin a murderer and said Russia should be designated as a state sponsor of terrorism following the death of Alexei Navalny last week, Graham’s name was reportedly elevated from the “most wanted” list to the “extremists and terrorists” list.
Eek.“Navalny was one of the bravest people I ever met,” Graham said on Face The Nation on Sunday. “When he went back to Russia he had to know he was going to be killed by Putin, and he was murdered by Putin.”Oddly, Graham’s remarks came just days after he voted against sending more aid to Ukraine in the war against Russia at the behest of Donald Trump.
Evidently, he can’t decide whether he likes or dislikes Russia, even though it’s pretty clear how Russia feels about him.Now, speaking of Trump… Graham was with him at his rally in South Carolina on Saturday night, during which the one-term, twice-impeached, quadruply-indicted ex-president crowed about winning 60% of the state’s primary vote.BTW, normally a 60% victory would be just that–a victory!
