Toady In Motion

Liz Goodwin & Leigh Ann Caldwell of the Washington Post: “Last May, Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) visited Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv, warmly embracing the embattled leader and later urging President Biden to ‘do more’ to help the nation as it fights off Russia’s invasion.

But this week, Graham voted repeatedly against sending $60 billion in aid to that nation as well as against other military funds for Israel and U.S. allies in the Indo-Pacific…. ‘

I talked to President Trump today and he’s dead set against this package,’ Graham said on the Senate floor on Sunday….

‘He thinks that we should make packages like this a loan, not a gift,’ Graham said….

The episode has also eroded Graham’s credibility among colleagues who worked closely with him to shape a bipartisan package of border policy reforms that Republicans demanded be attached to the foreign aid in exchange for their votes — only to backtrack and help kill it in the end.
