Graham Pushed Sanctions Package on Russia Before Death

In the hours leading up to his sudden death late Saturday evening at his Washington, D.C., residence, Sen. Lindsey Graham did not display any outward signs of illness, according to Sunday reports.

In fact, less than a day earlier, he was in Kiev, Ukraine, making a pitch for a new package of sanctions against Russia over its invasion of its neighbor more than four years ago.

“When I get back to Washington, I’m gonna go with Sen. [Richard] Blumenthal to the Republican and Democratic leader, to see if we can find time to move this Russian sanctions package that will give tools to President Trump to help end this war,” Graham, 71, said (see video below).
