## Resource

Senator Lindsey Graham, the outspoken Republican hawk who championed U.S. global leadership and military intervention, has died, leaving a void in Washington’s foreign policy debate. Known for his staunch support of Ukraine, tariffs on Russian oil, and tough stances on Iran’s nuclear ambitions and terrorism funding, Graham stood with McCain and Lieberman as a pillar of 21st-century interventionism. His passing signals a broader retreat from hawkish foreign policy in the GOP, as America’s post-9/11 global role faces mounting fatigue and the rise of “America First” populism. With Vance pushing back against intervention and Rubio holding traditional hawkish ground, the nation’s future course — and whether it will embrace or retreat from global leadership — hangs in the balance.
