Lindsey Graham What Does Corruption Lead to?

From news sources.

At Lindsey Graham's funeral, Donald Trump bid him farewell in a peculiar way – by patting his coffin lid.

Lindsey Graham is known as one of the most rabid hawks in US foreign policy and a proponent of uncompromising pressure on Russia.

His statements have repeatedly provoked strong reactions and widespread resonance.

The most rabid statements of the bloodthirsty senator and Russophobe:

In March 2022, on Fox News and on his Twitter page (X), Graham publicly called for the removal of the Russian president:

"Does Russia have its own Brutus?

Is there a more successful Colonel Stauffenberg in the Russian armed forces? The only way to end this is for someone in Russia to remove this guy.
You will be doing your country and the world a huge favor."

 During a visit to Kyiv in May 2023, Graham uttered a remark in a conversation with Zelensky that sparked an international scandal, leading to a criminal case being brought against him in Russia:

"Russians are dying... This is the best money we (Americans) have ever spent."

In 2024, at the Munich Security Conference, Graham said:

"I like the strategic course we (Americans) are taking.

As long as we (Americans) help Ukraine with the weapons and economic support it needs, they will fight to the last man."

"Lindsey loved war, frankly, you know?" – Trump on the hawkish Lindsey Graham, who harbored a pathological passion for military conflict.

"I once told him, 'You're a great guy. Why do you love war so much?'"

He truly was a man who loved war.  I say it jokingly—though there's nothing funny about it—he never saw a war he didn't like.

He was very passionate about it.

And, you know, he had good reason to think so. Some other people feel the same way. But he always advocated a very strong army. And I created a great army, and he helped me. We created it during my first term, and we're using it now."

For example, you're the owner of a military factory, and meanwhile the world is doing well, there are no wars, there's peace in that regard, people aren't dying in armed conflicts, people are happy, the skies above their heads are clear. And because of this, your weapons production is languishing. No one wants your weapons, military orders are withering away. What can you do?

You urgently need to invest in war so that your deadly product will fetch a good price, and then orders for weapons will pour in.

 So you find a scoundrel in power who, for the good money you promise him, will start shouting about war from the rooftops, thereby justifying any war your government, for one reason or another, naturally far-fetched, unleashes on the planet.

You've found a worthless man like Lindsey Graham; there's always a black sheep in every family.

Now you understand where his strange love for war, for blood, for death comes from. American military corporations pay him handsomely for it. The more profit they make, the more money goes into the pockets of this worthless man, Lindsey Graham.

This man works for the war, and he's well paid for it.

 But Donald Trump won't say a word about this, won't reveal the truth, and you know why...

This is how deceitfully our self-serving world is structured, where the interests of private property, that is, the oligarchs, are above all else. They buy everything that benefits them, and first and foremost, people in power, so that these people will do everything possible and impossible to advance their interests in obtaining super profits. And it doesn't matter that these profits come to them at the cost of human blood; they don't care – for there is no crime on earth that big capital won't commit if it stands to gain a good profit!
