LINDSEY GRAHAM RIP Cartoon published 07/13/2026 Lindsey Graham RIP Senator Lindsey Graham, who turned 71 just days ago, has passed away suddenly from an aortic rupture. A tireless voice in the Senate for decades, Graham was known for his sharp wit, deep commitment to national security, and unwavering support for a strong American military. He consistently advocated for robust U.S. involvement overseas — including stronger action in Ukraine and against Iran’s IRGC — often echoing the late Senator John McCain’s hawkish stance. Graham also played a pivotal role in one of the most consequential Supreme Court battles in recent memory: he stood firm in defense of Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination, helping guide it through intense controversy to confirmation. At GrrrGraphics, we poked plenty of fun at Lindsey over the years — from his enthusiastic push for more wars to quirky moments like wandering Disneyland alone with a Little Mermaid wand. In hindsight, those jabs feel lighter now. What remains is respect for a man who served his country with passion and conviction. We’ll miss Lindsey’s unmistakable voice in the Senate. Rest in peace, Senator. — Ben Garrison
