Is it time to (electorally) take out Lindsey Graham?
By Rajan Laad
The day before yesterday, South Carolina GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham caused a political firestorm when he tweeted the following.
Lindsey Graham@LindseyGrahamSC Is there a Brutus in Russia? Is there a more successful Colonel Stauffenberg in the Russian military? The only way this ends is for somebody in Russia to take this guy out. You would be doing your country – and the world – a great service.

@LindseyGrahamSC The only people who can fix this are the Russian people. Easy to say, hard to do. Unless you want to live in darkness for the rest of your life, be isolated from the rest of the world in abject poverty, and live in darkness you need to step up to the plate.9:39 PM · Mar 3, 2022
Marcus Junius Brutus was the Roman magistrate who conspired with Roman Senator Gaius Cassius to assassinate Roman dictator Julius Caesar in 44 B.C., while Claus von Stauffenberg led a failed assassination attempt against Adolf Hitler in 1944.
Yesterday, Graham doubled down on his comments on Fox and Friends.
“I’m hoping someone in Russia will understand he is destroying Russia and you need to take this guy out back any means possible,” adding that Russia needed an “Eliot Ness or a Wyatt Earp.”
Ness was a reference to the prohibition-era agent who took down mobster Al Capone. Earp was the lawman from the old west who led the gunfight at the O.K. Corral resulting in the deaths of three outlaws.
Thus in just two days, Graham likened Putin to Hitler, Capone, Caesar, and notorious outlaw Ike Clanton. more
First is was Sean Vannity calling for Putin to be iced, then Graham who is Sean’s ever adoring guest. Now even Vannity’s other frequent flyer, Mark Levin has called for Putin’s termination.
His Ukrainian paycheck must be yuge!
Miss Lindsey’s mouth is writing checks his dainty ass can’t cash!
Yes he wants all this nonsense to end before everyone finds out what was really going on in the Ukraine.
Deflection much?
Who’s the corrupt dicktaster?
Hey linseed, you’re talking about the wrong guy. I think you should be referencing a little closer to home.
Is it time? That was rhetorical, right?
By all means somebody please step up to the plate and save our country from Washington DC.
Russia wouldn’t be in Ukraine if it weren’t for Biden.
So, by extrapolation … ?
Graham is babbling and pointing to cover his own corruption.
A pox on ALL of them!

Miss Lindsey might be correct; just got the wrong direction.
Our own country is leaderless and rudderless. We are adrift in an ocean of fools, 2-year lockdowns, and petty tyrants, from the national level to the local level and in every sphere – political, military, judicial, academia, media.
How can even President Trump lead the country out of this morass, if the rest of Congress & swamp are fools and corruptocrats, trying to keep their fiefdoms?
In a similar vein, we need to replace the Globalist, evil Senators in every state. Case in point, Rob Portman, Ohio. He is not running for re-election but his butt buddy, Jane Timken, is trying to take his place. Please, Ohio, don’t primary Jane Timken!
I apologize in advance to the IOTW regulars but I intend to make this comment frequently as the primaries approach
Yoo hoo, Linthey. Sure you wanna fight a black belt when you’re only defense is a purth?
Has anyone forgotten about the sneak attack on America 12/7/1941? All the enemy has to do is get the upper hand militarily and we’re done. Our guns won’t do a thing–All they have to do is keep hitting our strategic bases with missiles. No where to run to, but those in Washington already have their bug out spot and we’re collateral damage.
Putin isn’t destroying Russia.. The West is! By placing all those sanctions on Russia the Russian people will side with Putin! The West is Creating the formation of a New Russian State and it won’t be a communist nation! The West is the new Communist State’s!
I don’t give two shits what happens to him or how it happens as long as he disappears.

What do we do with kamaltoes?
Nothing but the real thing baby, nothing but the real thing. A true mans man, oh boy!
Lindsey Graham, who was a member of the GANG OF 8 which advocated for widespread amnesty for every illegal intruder in the US, has been a sly undercover globalist pretending to wear American-made skin while speaking against Putin. Fact is that both Putin and Zelensky are globalists who planned this so-called invasion as a vehicle for world dominance by all globalists and headed up by the very-evil Klaus Schwab of the WEF.
