@bald_brad: Lindsey Graham has died at the age of 71. The longtime South Carolina senator and one of the Republican Party’s most recognizable voices passed away after what his office described as a “brief and sudden illness.” Emergency responders reportedly responded to a cardiac arrest call at his Capitol Hill home, although an official cause of death has not been released. Just one day before his passing, Lindsey Graham was in Ukraine meeting with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to discuss defense assistance and sanctions against Russia. Over more than 20 years in the U.S. Senate, Lindsey Graham became a leading figure on foreign policy, national security, judicial nominations, and military affairs. His death now leaves a major vacancy in the Senate and will have significant political implications as South Carolina prepares to appoint an interim replacement. #LindseyGraham #BreakingNews #Politics #Senate #News
