Senator Lindsey Graham, who represents South Carolina in the U.S. Senate, recently posted a series of statements on his social media account addressing international relations and domestic politics.
On April 28, 2026, Graham shared his reaction to King Charles III’s address to Congress: “I was so honored to be able to attend King Charles III’s address to a Joint Session of Congress. Simply put: The King nailed it. His speech was a much-needed morale boost for Congress, as he glowingly praised our nation and highlighted the role Congress plays in our democratic”.
Later that day, Graham criticized Democratic lawmakers’ foreign policy stance toward certain governments: “Democrats’ resistance to challenging terrorist regimes in Iran and communist dictatorships in Venezuela and Cuba seems to be never ending. They’ve fallen a long way from President Kennedy’s inaugural address and his ‘Ich bin ein Berliner’ speech.” (April 28, 2026).
On April 30, 2026, Graham commented on the upcoming Senate race involving Senator Susan Collins: “Good news for my dear friend Susan Collins. She is now running against the most extreme candidate in the 2026 cycle. Think Elizabeth Warren, AOC and Bernie Sanders on steroids. I have no doubt @SenSusanCollins is headed to victory in November.”
