'A DEAR FRIEND': Sean Hannity's Message on the Passing of Lindsey Graham

Sean Hannity’s message on the passing of Senator Lindsey Graham:

I woke up this morning to the tragic news that Senator Lindsey Graham of SC has passed away. Lindsey was a dear friend and the hardest-working man in the US Senate. He was also one of President Trump’s most loyal supporters.

Most people do not know his life’s story. He grew up living over a bar run by his family. After the early death of his parents, he personally stepped up to provide for, and raise, his younger sister. He then became a Congressman and later a Senator.

Contrary to a public narrative that he was a war hawk, it was the opposite that is true. He wanted an end to the war with Russia and Ukraine and end all conflicts in the Middle East. There is no elected official that traveled to these regions more than Senator Graham. His dream for the Middle East was that of a lasting peace in the region between every nation and his hope was this could all be accomplished by the early fall. This is something he loved to discuss with President Trump and others day and night.

He loved his job more than any elected official I’ve ever known and serving the people of SC, for him, was a 24/7 focus. He was always on a mission to accomplish big things for the country and world. He will be greatly missed.

I pray his dream of a lasting peace is realized sooner than later. There was simply nobody in elected office that loved his job and worked harder.

Our love and prayers go out to all his family and friends as they mourn a political force of nature. And we pray that our God has welcomed him into his loving embrace in the paradise he has promised his believers.

Godspeed, Senator Graham, as you return to the home of our creator and Savior.
