Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Unfortunately the website I have only works on dead mormons and they ain't dead dunked him yet
You got me, thought that was super plausible.
The is no HIPAA regulations on Grindr releasing it's database on how many hookups Lindsay did per month.
grindr would lose so much business if they started snitching on conservative politicians
Maybe just the dead ones then.
Even then. If I want a secret kept, I don't want my death to release the secret to the public
Don't be a public servant.
This made me laugh for two reasons: first, because fuck him and I hope he burns in hell; second, because just a day before I said to a friend, "Mitch McConnell is as alive as Lindsay Graham is straight."
Sometimes the universe just delivers
That's a great headline, BTW.
An evil heart and a lust for power meant even as society changed he never lived a single day of freedom. It'd be sad if he wasn't, y'know, evil.
It’s still sad. Don’t get me wrong, fuck that guy. But it’s a tragic story that repeats too often. I hope for a day where no one lives it again.
Another skeleton in the closet
and nothing of value was lost
How dare you.
Now the ladybugs will never be seen again.
Fucking hell.
Can't wait for Candace to tell us it was really an exploding microphone that killed him.
In his ass
And a warmonger
Good. Fucking. Riddance. Rot in hell you lady bug child fucking shit bag.
You should probably not accuse a man you’re insinuating was gay of also fucking children with zero evidence. The only man who has ever even publicly claimed he had sex with him said he did so as an adult (he was already a porn actor). Since accusing gay men of being pedophiles is an incredibly old homophobic stereotype, maybe don’t do that. Especially since there’s a slew of shit he actually did to criticize him for.
He's a MAGA so he's automatically a Pedophile. If he didn't rape children himself, then he protected those who do, and you know what they call a person who protects pedophiles?
A Pedophile.
Lindsey Graham was a Pedophile. He'll have plenty of company where he's going.
I won't accuse the late senator of either sexually abusing children or being erotically attracted to them.
But he was a consistent Republican vote for shitty Republican ideas. So, yeah, he definitely fucked America's kids.
He only needed 1 golf game with trump to change his views by 180 degrees. I wonder why.
I also why Sasha Riley mentioned him specifically when talking about his experience with Epstein?
Those who voted for him are generally are those associating pedophilia with being gay, but there is also link with it of rich and powerful that we learned what was released about Epstein.
died Saturday evening after what his office described as a “brief and sudden illness.”
Graham had met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv on Friday
That's quite an escalation. What would be that sudden? Drug overdose? Suicide after the cognitive dissonance finally became overwhelming?
I found a news report that it was a tear of the aorta.
Or at least, this is what I want it to be and what I will tell anyone who asks did it.
I do really hope he shit himself to death.
They’re probably not announcing the cause of Lady G’s death because RFK might show up to try to eat the body if he thinks his decisions at the CDC contributed.
“It’s legitimate kill! Let me stick him in my trunk!”

A heart attack is a brief and sudden event...
If that's what happened, they're going to be hesitant to say it because that's what happened to McTurtle, and they're trying to stall till the normal election so it won't be a special election
If Mitch wasn't being kept alive by machines in a brain dead state, they'd have said Lindsey had a heart attack
There was a report of something happening a week or so earlier there too it’s very common for heart issues to happen in clusters like that
If he was NOT gay then my gaydar was broken.
if hes wasnt, then there are several boyotys in sc that are very confused.
that are
"Who are", for sentient beings. I bet they've been objectified enough in their work, so let's not treat them as objects here.
'That' can be an acceptable relative pronoun to refer to people, depending on the sentence structure and context.

One goes down and is not around... 99 Senators are left on the floor.
99 Senators sit in the hall...
99 Senators sit..
- Pretty sure we were down one already.
I have bad news for you, which is that he posted a statement and a photo with Elaine in his hospital room. It sounds like he had a mini stroke or something - he fell, they've done a "battery" of tests "trying to find out what caused the fall", and then caught a "mild" case of pneumonia due to hospitalization.
Even at 84, you don't take up a hospital bed for three and a half weeks just from a fall and pneumonia.
I know his shoes were off, and there was no oxygen, and they weren't in a hurry, but my government wouldn't lie to me, would it?
