We live at a helluva moment when a major GOP leader suddenly dies and the first reaction of many is disappointment that it was not a different major GOP leader.

Rest in pieces Lindsey. The only bad thing about this is that he was an ally of Ukraine. Perhaps Russia offed him.

First thing that came to my mind was a poisoning.

The male prostitutes in DC are in mourning some are saying.

At least now, wherever he is, hopefully he can come out of the closet and be himself.

He always was jealous of McConnell. Had to beat him to the punch.

"In June, the late US Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) had defeated multiple primary challengers to secure his party's nomination as he vied for a potential fifth term. Now, a special primary must be held by 11 Aug, according to South Carolina election laws, to find a replacement nominee.

That Republican nominee will face Dr. Annie Andrews (D) on Tuesday 3 Nov 2026."

~snip~

Not to worry, Dr Annie Andrews does not take blood money from the notorious AIPAC.

Instead, this pediatrician takes blood money from the more subtle -- but still sinister -- JACPAC.org.

Since 7 Oct 2023, the Israeli Death Forces (IDF) have murdered at least 20,179 Palestinian children in Gaza.

I wonder what this pediatrician thinks of that appalling number of murdered and mutilated children?

He gave away his soul to get in the good graces of the worst president in history.
