About this episode

The episode discusses the passing of Sen. Lindsey Graham and covers related political topics.

On Saturday evening, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC)  passed away  at age 71 after what his office called a “brief and sudden illness.” The nature of the illness was initially unknown, though news outlets  reported  that emergency services were dispatched to a Washington, D.C. home owned by Graham and administered treatment to a man suffering from cardiac arrest. On Sunday, Graham’s office  said  a preliminary examination found he died of “aortic dissection due to arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease.” Also in today’s edition, we cover the Prairieland incident and an under-the-radar story about the January 6 case against members of the Proud Boys.
