Lindsey Graham, Key Ally of Donald Trump, Has Died After Sudden Illness

I get why there are so many conspiracy theories about Graham's death, but a reasonable adults we should also consider the possibility that a 71 year old man simply had a heart attack.

Of course, that possibility exists. It's just interesting when people die right as they're starting to question certain foreign policy objectives.

As for Laura Loomer's assertion that Russia's behind his death, that's likely based on his recent trip to Ukraine and his continued support for US involvement in the war.

I also can't figure out why the FBI is "assisting the investigation" if the obvious cause of death is aortic dissection.

I agree the FBI involvement is suspicious, but just because Patel said something, doesn't make it true.

"Assisting" here would likely mean obfuscating. You need to take control in case the locals start yapping about irregularities.

Despite Graham's age, given the timing and what he's recently said -- and one particular country's propensity for assassinating on a whim -- the possibility of some type of foul play has to be at least considered.

The Hill is reporting that the FBI went to Graham's home today, so it seems that Patel was telling the truth for once.
