It is with quite a bit of shock that I write that beloved Senator Lindsey Graham, from the state of South Carolina, has just passed away last night.
President Trump announced it this morning:
Senator Lindsey Graham, one of the greatest people and Senators I have ever known, is dead! He was always working, and was a true American Patriot. Lindsey will be greatly missed!!! DETAILS AND ARRANGEMENTS TO FOLLOW. So sad! President DONALD J. TRUMP
And Lindsey Graham’s official account announced it overnight:

Senate Leader Thune has already responded to the news this morning:
Meet the Press writes that Graham was scheduled to be on their show this morning. What a huge loss.
May Lindsey rest in the true and eternal peace of the great and only Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
