Ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee Rep. Jim Himes (Conn) took issue with the Trump Administration policy of having the US Navy blow up drug smugglers boats, saying "Sen Graham (SC) and other Republicans say it's okay to kill suspected drug smugglers, just so long as the American public supports it. What will they say when President Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez orders a strike on a MAGA demonstration or suppresses the speech of individuals who disagree with her policies? Do they really want to establish a precedent that the president can do whatever he or she wants?" "What precedent is he...

Everyone including me was apoplectic over President Trump’s full-throated endorsement of Lindsey Graham for his 2026 Senate race. What was POTUS thinking? Graham is a RINO, a war hawk. This man hates MAGA. Lindsey Graham said Trump-supporters embrace “demagoguery,” called MAGA “bats--- crazy,” said Trump’s foreign policy is “gibberish,” that Trump doesn’t have the “temperament or judgment” to be president. Then Graham lined up with the real January 6 insurgents (Democrats) and attacked MAGA as violent. He tried to implicate President Trump in the alleged “insurrection.” He said, “Those responsible for Capitol security, including our political leaders, must also be...

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Wednesday said “very sensitive information” was discussed during a Trump administration group chat on Signal that included a journalist, but the longtime ally of President Trump said he sees the snafu as a “lessons learned” episode. “Recent revelations about the content of the texts — while not discussing war plans per se — do in fact detail very sensitive information about a planned and ongoing military operation,” Graham said in a statement. “Lessons learned.” Jeffrey Goldberg, editor in chief of The Atlantic and former foreign affairs correspondent, reported Monday that he had been inadvertently included...

On this week’s edition of FNC’s “Fox News Sunday,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for how he handled himself at the White House weeks earlier. However, the South Carolina Republican warned if the United States pulled the plug on Ukraine, the result would be “worse than Afghanistan.” Host Maria Bartiromo said, “So there’s a pause right now on Ukrainian aid and intelligence sharing.

Senator Adam Schiff (D-Calif) declared that "millions of Americans are downright ashamed of the way Trump treated President Zelensky. In a complete reversal of former President Biden's successful something for nothing approach to dealing with Ukraine, Trump has suddenly insisted on a quid pro quo minerals deal in exchange for peace. This is no way to treat an ally who is fighting for the kind of democracy we Democrats tried to give to America in the last election." Rep. Mike Quigley (R-IL) agreed with Schiff, saying "what Trump doesn't understand is that Putin doesn't just want to conquer Ukraine. He...
