## Resource

Senator Lindsey Graham, the conservative titan of the Senate and a lifelong patriot, has died at 71 after a sudden illness. A fierce defender of national security, fiscal responsibility, and taxpayer accountability, Graham shaped policy from his roles on key committees and his Air Force legacy. Elected in 2002, he rose from a working-class South Carolina family to become a towering figure in Washington — a man who never forgot his roots, never shied from controversy, and always stood for his convictions. His passing leaves a profound void in American politics. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
