The NYT obituary of Lindsey Graham makes no mention of his effort to overturn the 2020 election by calling Georgia’s secretary of state to intimidate him into manufacturing votes for Trump. The Times, like all news media, is GOP propaganda erasing Republicans’ history as election deniers

Senator Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina and Staunch Trump Ally, Dies at 71 Mr. Graham died of a “brief and sudden” illness on Saturday evening, his office said. Over more than two decades in the Senate, he consistently pushed for the use of U.S. military power overseas.Over his Senate career, Mr. Graham led two influential committees, Judiciary and Budget. As head of the Judiciary Committee, he oversaw the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court after the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. He also played a critical role during the 2016 fight over President Barack Obama’s nomination of Merrick Garland to the court, aiding in Republicans’ success in blocking the pick.More broadly, Mr. Graham was instrumental in advancing Mr. Trump’s effort to reshape the federal judiciary. During his tenure at the helm of the committee, the Senate confirmed more than 200 federal judges, including Ms. Barrett, cementing one of the defining conservative judicial legacies of the Trump era.As chairman of the Budget Committee, Mr. Graham played a central role in translating Mr. Trump’s domestic agenda into legislation. He oversaw the budget resolution that allowed Republicans to advance much of the president’s sweeping tax, immigration and spending package without support from Senate Democrats. The effort required months of negotiations among warring factions within his party before the tax package became law last year. Mr. Graham, along with Republican leaders and the Trump administration, embraced budget reconciliation as the party’s primary vehicle for enacting Mr. Trump’s agenda at a time when Republicans lacked the 60 votes needed to overcome a filibuster. Those efforts became a defining accomplishment of Mr. Trump’s return to Washington with a Republican-controlled legislature, and highlighted not only the growing influence of Mr. Graham within his party but also his transformation from Trump critic into a steadfast and outspoken ally.

1/6 I have to laugh a bit when I hear people call Sanders a "Socialist." Mainly because they have no idea what Socialism is and think of Russia. That's Marxism-Leninism Socialism; it all belongs to the government. Then there is another reality that the American people don't seem to understand:

Good morning and happy Tuesday to everyone. Fat Satan was never shot. He's a pedophile and rapist. He's in the Epstein Files. His wife fucked Epstein. He has two brain cells and they're fighting for third place. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Good morning and happy Sunday to everyone. It's still the Department of Defense. Just like it's still the Gulf of Mexico. Just like the other place is still the Twitter. Just like he’s still in the Epstein files.

Good morning and a reflective Memorial Day to everyone except Fat Satan, who just the other day bragged about dead American troops from his senseless war. "Only 13."

Spanish actor Javier Bardem is 💯 right about Trump’s, Putin’s and Netanyahu’s male toxic behavior: “The big balls men saying my cock is bigger than yours and I’m going to bomb the shit out of you is a fucking male toxic behavior that is creating thousands of dead people.” Well said Sir 👏👏

He stole hundreds of millions of dollars from medicare. Then, he had to plead the fifth amendment 75 times. No accountability and still Florida sent him to the Senate!

i'm not sure folks are aware of how tight the house margins are. republicans can only afford to lose 2 votes. it's not too difficult to pick off R reps right now due to their unpopularity + jeffries, for his flaws, is a good caucus manager. every single D we lose really hurts with these margins.

4 Democratic members of the House have died in office since this Congress started in January 2025. (That's roughly 2 percent of the Democratic caucus elected in November 2024.)

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

The horrible cruelty, the inhumanity, the lawlessness is what’s making this administration a criminal organization. When Democrats take over the Senate and the House, indict them for their crimes. All of them!!!!
