Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., who was elected to the Senate in 2003 and was a close political ally of President Donald Trump, has died, his office confirmed early Sunday. He was 71.
Graham died Saturday night “from a brief and sudden illness,” his office said in a statement.
Enjoy hell
Maybe if both Trump and McConnell die today we can create a new national holiday. Both are in hospital.
I hope he suffered.
Right above this in my Lemmy feed I saw this gem
It’s so rare these days to see positive stories in the news.
We’ll get another once they let a non partisan doctor in to check McConnell’s vitals.
“I have never wished for aans death, but I have read obituaries with great satisfaction.”. - Mark Twain
Ah, who am I kidding? I wish for peoples deaths all the time, and this MAGA scumbag is one of them.
I was shocked when I saw this headline, and figured it was the Onion. I had to read it several times, then Google it to confirm.
He’s really dead! DING! DONG! THE WITCH IS DEAD!
I would have preferred he lingered in a state of horrible suffering, tbh.
Yeah the whole ‘moral high ground’ shit of not wishing death on anyone only serves to protect evil people from vigilante justice.
The best response to a tumor is excision.
I suspect Mark Twain only felt that way because the internet didn’t exist so he wasn’t exposed to literally all of the evil things these people tend to do.
People as bad existed in the past, but due to limited communication technology their ability to screw over the entire planetary population was severely limited.
That’s probably a big part of it. I was the same opinion as his from that quote 2 years ago.
Now I can’t wait for these demons to die slowly and painfully
When I read it I was just filled with joy. I feel awful about feeling good about somebody’s death though, piece of shit though he was
Yay!!! I too thought was being punked. First fucking headline can’t believe it. Damn wish had friends to celebrate with. My kid just said “who” when I told him.
Just had a 20 minute call with him
What did he have to say about Hell?
That it was not as hot as “up top” will be in about 40 years time and that he was happy that his legacy would be around to hurt millions of people for decades to come.
The weather is actually cooler there because global warming doesn’t affect different planes of existence
I hope that’s right. I’ve already leased a condo at the Special Place in Hell Riviera overlooking the Lake of Fire!
Rest in piss you piece of shit.
You’re absolutely wrong about him. He was a PILE of shit, not a piece!
Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people.
The crabs are confused about who they’re raving for. Weren’t they waiting for some other guy? But, oh well! A party’s a party!
Shouldn’t this be in Uplifting News?
No, because it was a “brief and sudden” illness. Doesn’t sound like he suffered
Don’t be such s fucking sociopath.
I will never stop dancing on the graves of fascists/extreme right/neo-nazi scum no matter what, fuck off
There’s a difference between being happy they’re dead and wishing suffering on them.
Stop being such a fucking sociopath.
I wish he experienced the same amount of suffering he spent two decades causing others to experience.
While millions suffered, he got off easy.
I wish I could watch him slowly die in a hospital while insurance companies Nickle and dimed him until he died.
You should probably talk to someone about your issues. You’re unwell.
Because as a queer person I am happy someone who spent his whole life making it harder to be openly queer is dead?
Spare me your crocodile tears.
Again, this time politely.
Fuck off
And again, also politely, please seek help for your clearly untreated issues.
I’m firmly in the camp of '“don’t let perfect be the enemy of good”. I’d be happier if he suffered, but I’m not necessarily wishing it were the case.
As other’s have pointed out, this is not the time for virtue signaling.
Graham was an unspeakable evil and blight on the world and has directly and indirectly led to the deaths and suffering of millions of innocent men, women, and children through his action and inaction in supporting Israel, Trump, and the wave of Fascism at large. If he had a conscience he would have killed himself long ago.
He unrepentantly endorsed the worst of humanity and did it with a grin on his face.
If these aren’t the people that deserve to suffer karmically, then there will never be justice in the universe.
So peddle your “Oh no, my pearls” somewhere else.
This motherfucker can burn in a molten pit of lead for eternity for his crimes. I only hope that his last moments were the fear and realization that this is really it, and his life as a piece of shit fascist will go down in history along side the pages of other great Nazi leaders.
Edit: And just as an additional fuck you to the person I’m replying to, I only regret that Lindsay didn’t survive to the US version of Nuremberg trials, where we could lay out his crimes against humanity and watch him squirm and suffer and die inside at the end as his death sentence is read. Then watch his execution on live TV with all the other traitors and conspirators in this corrupt fucking admin.
The same is coming for everyone in this administration. Lindsey got out before the crimes could catch up to him. But there will be others.
Big yawn. Another loudmouth keyboard warrior that probably can’t even look the mailman in the eye.
If you wish suffering on another person, you are sick in the head. You put rabid dogs down, you don’t torture them you utter fucking lunatic.
Lol, remind me again how that worked out for the Nazi sympathizers
Can you please just fuck off back to Reddit where you belong? Or tiktok or wherever manchildren like you congeal these days.
I wish that hypocrital piece of shit got even a glimpse of suffering so he could experience what he did to millions of Americans for two decades.
What’s sociopathic about wanting a monster to suffer for the incalculable harm and death he’s wrought on the planet? You gonna scold people for wishing suffering on Trump? Netanyahu? Putin? Fuck Lindsay Graham, he did deserve to suffer for what he’s done.
I’ll celebrate when all those listed are dead and gone but I don’t wish suffering on them. Them just being out of the way is sufficient.
Stop being such a sociopath.
Nothing sociopathic about wanting people to reap what they sow.
Wanting to inflict suffering on others is the thinking of a sick mind.
Be a better person.
I don’t want to inflict suffering on them. I just want them to experience the suffering they’ve inflicted on others.
It’s a shame.
That it was brief.
Well with possibly McConnell being dead, and now Graham definitely being dead… we all know these things happen in 3s.
Fingers crossed?
A rather rancid British politician was just murdered, so thats an infernal trio.
Let’s hope the rule applies on a per-country basis.
