Sen. Graham praises ‘ever-resourceful’ Ukraine for Russian attack
The Hill ^ | 06/02/25 8:48 AM ET | by Ian Swanson

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) praised Ukraine’s weekend drone attack on Russia, calling its government and armed forces “ever-resourceful” while warning that Russian President Vladimir Putin is preparing for more war.

“The ever-resourceful Ukraine used creative drone warfare tactics to successfully attack Russian bombers and military assets used to kill Ukrainian citizens and destroy their country,” Graham said on the social platform X on Sunday reacting to the Ukraine attack.

Ukraine hit Russian bases across the vast country in the recent attack, including in the regions of Irkutsk and Amur, which are thousands of miles from the Russian-Ukraine border. The attack came just before new talks between Russia and Ukraine in Turkey and without President Trump’s knowledge.

Graham has backed Ukraine throughout its war with Russia and is supporting a major sanctions bill against Russia the Senate is set to consider this week. He has been a voice in Trump’s orbit for tougher steps with Russia.

“Russia indiscriminately kills men, women and children. It’s time for the world to act decisively against Russia’s aggression by holding China and others accountable for buying cheap Russian oil that props up Putin’s war machine. If you want this war to end, push China to help end it,” he wrote Sunday on X.

Graham recently visited Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky in Ukraine with fellow Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.).

Not only do we not have any video of Mr Graham actually doing something, when he does show up he’s a wholesaler for the death and carnage industry.

Note to Linda: Russia has 5000 nuclear weapons at its disposal. Hope you’re near a fallout shelter.

Now, about all those foreign nationals Biden let in, the young men from the People’s Republic of China.

Well seems like they might say “Hey we can do that too!”

Why does Sean Hannity give Linda a segment on his show?

It only exacerbates Graham’s blood lust.

I get the sense that Graham views war as a video game. Russia is destroying Ukraine and killing an entire generation of young men. The war needs to stop. Yet Linsey is praising the creativity of attacks and egging them on.

That was the CIA and British intelligence that did it. Ukraine does not have the complex ISR capability, the kind of satellite data we have, and the ability to coordinate combined arms. Your spring of pensive‘s in 2023 and 2024 failed spectacularly because they don’t have the capability to even coordinate artillery, tanks, and infantry. And now suddenly they coordinate at least eight attacks across Russia at bases? That was us and everybody knows it.

What exactly prevents Putin from letting one loose on Kiev? He’s not ever going to give in. This escalation is insane as are the senators who are acting like they are the State Department and President.

Using unmarked civilian trucks to commit an attack with solders likewise not in uniform is a war crime for a reason. It places civilians at unnecessary risk of becoming targets. It is not clever or innovative, it is a clear violation of the conventions of war, it is a brazen disregard for the lives of civilians namely Ukrainian civilians. Now every truck in Ukraine can be considered a viable military target as there is no way to distinguish between a load of food and a mobile weapons platform. One that could be carrying ordinance with far greater range than a drone. Standing armies are supposed to protect civilians not hide behind them.

Right. As I have mentioned before, the Ukraine/Russia conflict is WW1 in miniature. Fools and egotists on each side. No one with clean hands.

In WW1 men were fed into the meat grinder while the fools kept saying “Just one more big push, and the war is won.”

Graham is that type of person today.

I blame the robotic South Carolina voters for Lindsey Graham and all his accompanying evil.

Senator Lindsey Graham is one twisted chicken hawk. Truly a protege of John McCain, the chief chicken hawk of them all.

McCain was recorded walking through the halls of Congress, humming “Bomb, bomb, bomb Iran”, and this had the ayatollahs all scrunched up and defecating fishworms.

“...Graham needs a personality transplant....”

He needs waaaayyyyy more than that.
A jail cell would be a good start.

We have 100 senators. Why is he the only one we ever hear about on a daily basis?
