    Crooks and Liars, Tuesday - 04/23/2024 - 06:38 AM

Here's Graham responding to his fellow Senator JD Vance's criticism of the bill on this weekend's Fox News Sunday: GRAHAM: So this idea, give up on Ukraine, makes the world safer, if you pull the plug on Ukraine because you don't have enough capability, there goes Taiwan.
