Closet Sister Lindsey Graham Blames Ukraine Power Grab with Benghazi
Republican South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham made something of a fool of himself on Tuesday, tweeting that Russia’s recent invasion of Ukraine was the direct consequence of … the 2012 terrorist attack on a U.S. mission in Benghazi. To explain how this could possibly be the case and not be total nonsense, Graham issued the following tweet, which definitely is convincing and is not at all ridiculous: Lindsey Graham
With Graham having definitively and unquestionably established that many if not most of the awful things that have happened in the world since Sept. 11, 2012, can be blamed on Benghazi, the good folks on Twitter — on both the left and the right — were more than happy to help Graham substantiate his argument further with other examples of the Benghazi attack’s expansive repercussions: David Waldman @KagroX
