Senator Lindsey Graham (U-DC) was asked for his thoughts and perspectives about USAID today during a press conference.
Senator Lindsey Graham is senior senator in charge of the upper chamber oversight of foreign government influence operations via the “150 account” that supports the goals and objectives of the State Dept.
Senator Lindsey Graham culminates his entire political career in one brief segment of pretending not to know.
We can officially say this moment achieves ‘peak Graham.’ The part where Graham tells former USAID Director Samantha Power to “quit texting me” is epic. WATCH:
It is said that in 1860 literary master Ralph Waldo Emerson found a stargate, entered and traveled to this day in history. Upon return, he wrote:
“The louder he talked of his honor, the faster we counted our spoons.”
Every face tells a story:

Peak Pretentious Pompous Poseur.
Lady G (not Lady Gaga) is happy to throw Samantha Power under the bus. Maybe she will spill the beans on this RINO loser.
I’d love to see them take each other out.
Enjoy what is probably the look of shock and betrayal on Power’s face when she sees this clip…
Cage match…with the cage being a prison cell they are in.
Powers probably would whip Lindsay….she is a butt ugly ginger.
Don’t know about the whip part – the queen would likely suck the ginger’s head right off…
As I posted on X a short while ago:
Light in the loafers Lindsey is shocked, SHOCKED that gambling has been occurring in the USAID establishment.
Tom Wigand (American Discerner on Substack)
Sue graham for fraud.
A dirty in congress.
Every time I see Lindsey’s name or face I immediately think of his cell phone video showing what crazy idiotic RHINO he is.
Well, o.k. but he’s a crazy RINO, not RHINO.
RINO= Republican In Name Only=Democrat, in other words.
I don’t know WHAT a RHINO is,…
🦏
there is the virus, too
RINO, of course. Good of you to correct K’s spelling. 😉
A rhino is short for rhinoceros. Not an elephant, not a jack-ass. Totally innocent animal, not even Uniparty!
Ogden Nash knows:
The rhino is a homely beast,
For human eyes he’s not a feast.
Farewell, farewell, you old rhinoceros,
I’ll stare at something less prepoceros.
RINO = UniParty
Sorry i haven’t done that in a long time
But ,thank you for being the Grammar/Spell Checker on here. Maybe others can return the favor sometime.
You correcting someone’s spelling is rich. 🤣
Wow, Lindsey has an excellent takeaway in his golf swing. Wonders never cease.
🤣 🤣 🤣 Ladybugs will pat himself on the back tonight. “The avarice, the unmitigated gall!”
-sizzle d
Me thinks he doth protest too much.
His looks over his shoulders after tough talk is a tell. He seems really nervous and insecure.
Dems are bad, but you know what to expect. Snakes like Graham and McConnell to name a few are the worst in my opinion.
It seemed to me like his voice was quavering just a little.
Even slurring at the end. He’s in trouble
Think he’s nervous now? Wait until he has his next golf date with President Trump!
Yup. 👍
I can’t tell if Senator Graham is trying to outrun the USAID freight train or hop onboard before it’s too late.
As a career politician practiced in the art of talking out of both sides of the mouth simultaneously, my guess is that he’s trying to do both.
He’s already gotten $millions from USAID. A list was posted on X and all the usual cretins are on it.
Outrun. His group gets over a million from USAID. For doing exactly what I don’t know, other than traveling around the world starting wars and hanging w/terrorists.
I see it as a disclaimer that he didn’t know what’s going on. Whole purpose of the press conference.
It’s safe to assume that Graham and many others, are realizing that the gig is up. Preservation mode is now in play.
Oh yeah! The game is not the same when Elon outs members of Congress for huge wealth gains for no “known” reasons.
Whats ladybug lindseys net worth, haveing sat on the “150 club” for so long,….hmmm?
Mayhap as much as 46 million. He is a piker by the players in Congress’ standards.
Maybe retirements are forthcoming to avoid the stink ahead. We can only hope.
I just did a short ChatGPT on “the 150 account”. It has up to a $63 Billion/yr budget and has evolved over the years (It did not give me the origin date) into climate change, working with USAID, etc. Looks a lot like a continuing pile of flowing grift. Hope DOGE does its AI thing to get to the truth.
Another grift?
When do DC properties start dropping in value?
Maybe I should just sign off before I post this, but I don’t think I will, as I feel AI has nothing whatsoever to do with what DOGE is doing.
I believe the HUMANS involved in DOGE have their game on, and were ready from Day 1 and had their programming ready to FERRET ALL THIS FW&A .
I despite AI. It doesn’t take AI to figure out that blank checks were written to some nobody. Just want to stand up for HUMANS who have brains !
Samantha made 30 million while working GrubMint jobs, 15 million last 4 years at UaidME
Maybe she just made some smart investments in real estate and green energy./////
She took investment advice from Paul “hammers” Pelosi.

How come none of those Congress critters ever ask questions about where the money goes when they authorize it? Grifters, every last one!
They know where it’s going, they don’t need to ask. Right into their pockets, their friends’ pockets, and their campaign war chests.
Plausible deniability … lol! “I didn’t take money from the execs, just the little people…”
The faux outrage is rich w/this one. Like he didn’t know, I wonder how much Lee has in his pockets? I find it insulting and offensive.

Rather telling, isn’t it?
IMO his body language says he knows he’s in the hot seat…nervous as all h..hit his stride pointing at Samantha Powers…didn’t work Lindsey. Not for me anyway.
His light in the lofers are slipping.😂
If he were McConnell he’d be carrying a load.
The part where Graham tells former USAID Director Samantha Power to “quit texting me”………..
“Stop texting me Sammie! Don’t you realize that leaves an electronic paper trail! Good grief girl, if you need to get hold of me use the more secure method and borrow Nellie Ohr’s ham radio!”
Him in heap big trouble.
He can share a greybar teepee with Fauxcahontas Warren.
Also known in the Deep South as, “he done tore his draws.”
I heard two times, “She’s texting me morning, noon, and night.”
Oh, that’s really good!
Clean up on isle 2, Lyndsay has shat himself.
In their wildest dreams they never figured there would be a true auditing of tax payers money.
They have been looting for so long they became confident they would not get caught.
They didn’t think that AI would be used to easily map and trace all the money and to where it was going.
The reason they’re so afraid of DOGE having personal information is they’re afraid it will be used to find their financial accounts then examine how they got their tens of millions.
Imagine how many war hawks politicians were receiving kickbacks from the Pentagon to keep bombs falling and missiles launching.
Pigs at the troff, the whole lot of them.
.
That’s an insult to all swine!
A simple query could of found this fraud, AI was not needed.
I wouldn’t fight in a war that any one of those people would want me to.
USAID is only one of many similar agencies. I’m elated to see for the first time ever, an administration that is publically exposing USAID.
At the same time keeping my powder dry, unless Trump goes after all these agencies the problem will continue.
Just wait until the Pentagon is investigated!
way back in 1978, I was part of a team testing the 84mm carl Gustaf rocket launcher.
it was hands down better than anything we had at that time. lots of special purpose rounds made it a great weapon system. on “show day” where we did a show for a couple of generals was telling.
2 Marine generals got down in the dirt and fired the weapon themselves. they pulled out note books and asked questions and WHAT we thought about it. they took notes, even doubled check things.
the 3 army generals didn’t give a shit. they acted bored to say the least. and they left right after the “show’.
a couple of years later, the army got the Dragon anti tank weapon system. never used it myself but others who had said it was junk or worthless. by the 1990’s it was just about gone.
so, image how I felt watching the news about the war in the sandbox and the SF guys saying how wonderful and useful the 84mm Carl G was in 2004-5 ?
BTW, the launcher is just about grunt proof. iron sights to back up the scope. you can re cock the weapon to fire a bad primer. and we where told it cost a lot less than the Dragon did round per round.
and that is when I knew just how crooked the clowns in the five sided funny farm where.
so much for getting the best tools in the troops hands ?
I wonder just how much more crap like this they are going to find ? my guess is there is billions worth of worthless gear bought for the troops. as we used to say, somebody got paid off is why we have gear that doesn’t work worth a damn.
Department of Marine Resources. Go back from today to 2000. Non of this 7 year limit garbage. Sweet Baby Jesus what you will find there. Going to be just as mind boggling as all the other vaults they crack.
Patience Grasshopper, Trump hasn’t been President a month yet. And he’s already accomplished more than his first four years and Biden’s four years combined.
Not a question of patience. How the 99% remainder of these hydra agencies are dealt with will confirm that Trump is, or, isn’t being corralled by the staff around him. As happened the 1st time around.
POUUS is fighting the swamps many legal challenges and injunctions to his EOs and directives. Soon as he clears the hurdle for his executive branch authority… am sure the slow process of justice will ensue. Yes, powder dry, focus in the ball…
Politics ain’t neva gonna be the same . Graft and grift gotta go Graham.
And may you have an awakening little Lindsey you punk.
So, Ukraine says they didn’t get $100 billion that was supposedly sent to them. Start examining the bank accounts of every U.S. politician who has been there in the last ten years. McCain and Graham were regulars there even before the war. How many congressional junkets with dozens of them seemingly every couple of months to check on the money. Yea, you betcha you were checking on it. Off shore accounts ring a bell?
Yep. You just refreshed my memory, Graham on camera with McCain, saying this is going to be GREAT for the US (him) to invade the Ukraine.
“How many congressional junkets with dozens of them seemingly every couple of months to check on the money.”
“Off shore accounts ring a bell?”
Mr Squeaky Clean himself, Mitt “Magic Underpants” Romney has been awfully quiet lately. Anyone seen or heard from him?
Bueller?…Bueller……??
And Amy-who-eats-salad-with-a-comb Klobachar was on that junket also. Wonder where she stashed her diamonds.
Remember back in January of 2022?
On the 17th and again on the 24th all those senators and whomever else going to the Ukraine?
Anyone remember who all it was that went over there?
o.0
Graham is an epic pos in my opinion.
But we knew that even before DOGE.
Self preservation in action, Miss Power…enjoy your $30M, maybe….
Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered !! The farmer is rounding them up now that they’ve been pumped full of USAID cash
Just a reminder of the likely significant overlap on the Venn diagram between the USAID top players Circle and this Circle

Although my guess is Graham likes to go more Scottish Rite.
If it ain’t the $$, it’s the boys.
Lotta dead children in Syria. Hard to keep track of the missing children.
That’s rich. I guess Wimsey doesn’t know we know his International Republican Institute received money from USAID?
So “Sam the man” Powers just got thrown under the bus……too late Lindsey! You just bared your buttocks to the world.
Fox 2 Graham! Counter measures ain’t gonna help bud, you going down.
We only need to turn one…..
then like dominos the rest will fall…..!!!!!
Just one…..winning…!!!!!
After what we have seen this past week or so it now becomes easy to see why Congress has “chosen” not to produce a budget since 2009 and gone with the tried and true Continuing Resolution.
So the game has been since at least 2009 to rubber stamp all prior year funding, to all the agencies such as USAID, State Dept, DOD, NIH etc and the money laundering game just keeps on keeping on.
EVERYONE gets funded EVERY YEAR. My bet is most knew the game, the rules and just played dumb to the American people.
I believe the USAID and all the politicians affiliated with it are in damage control mode. They got some judges to put a pause on the DOGE investigations. No doubt they are now in Hillary Clinton mode, trying their best to erase evidence, hammer cell phones and hard drives etc. Very similar to the January 6th committee erasing the videos. They will now rely on the courts in order to hamper the investigations.
Miss Lyndsay you are the FILTHIEST LIBERAL.
We getting there friends and neighbors!
Bye, bye, bye miss Lindsey!
The wheels on the bus go around and around.
If I were a reporter, I would ask one simple question : But, Senator Graham, having been involved with USAID and the 150 program, shouldn’t you have known? Did you ever ask where the money was going? (really 2 questions intrinsically linked)
Ladybug Graham is seeing his wet dreams of nuclear war vanish before him with each new day in Trump T-2.
A woman scorned….no, no, not Miss Lindsay, Samantha Power….although, now that I think about it…..
Hey- he’s said he’s ALWAYS been a fan of “soft power”.
Soft- as in “yielding readily to touch or pressure; easily penetrated, divided, or changed in shape; not hard or stiff” (dictionary.com)
They really are goi g bonkers,..Raskin just called for Musk to be impeached.
Musk wasn’t elected, and can’t be impeached, you crazy imbecile!
Did Lindsey’s testicle finally drop?
Well, are getting to the bottom of it this time?
“If you stare into the Abyss long enough the Abyss stares back at you.” — Friedrich Nietzsche
Is LG giving a little defense here to the State Department (C-A)?
I get a kick out of the U-DC moniker. Every single government on the planet that has or has had a single party structure mindset and the vision of some type of parliamentarian system of the People. Has been rightful labeled as Marxist and Politburo styled by the US govt for well over a hundred years.
Here we simply call them the Uniparty and Congressmen and Senators.
Hucksters and Flimflam agents. Wolves in sheep clothing. Every single last one of them. The very definition of Privilege that executive coaching can buy.
And, don’t even get me started on State controlled media that threads the needle for these fellow travelers of Morning Stars’ of the Dawn.
But, that is neither here nor there of what I want to say.
Which is the little secret behind Eon’s tech geniuses that walk into any given agency. The first thing these tier-one uni party bureaucratic functionaries are presented with is an AI avatar that does not answer questions but ask questions. Like, given this performance review of department head leadership under your watch. How do you validate these specific outcomes. Please by all means using industry established peer review feedback mechanisms established by leading Universities of Doctorials in Human Resources. Validate your proformance and the continued need for your leadership.
Number One Response heard by Eon’s techies.
I should have taken the buyout.
Via DOGE and investigations, PDJT will soon have every Congresscritter’s number.
“Play MAGA for me.”
He has said many times that we caught all of them!
Maybe someone should ask Senator Graham about the US embassy in Lebanon that is currently being built on 40-plus prime Beirut acres and will employ at least 5,000. Is Sen. Graham’s 150-Club or maybe USAID, the State Dept et’al part of this? It’s a monstrosity . What exactly does the US intend to do within this facility? Be sure to view the embedded video:

Wimsey is up to his eyeballs in this.
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/h2CYnOE1OU4
His mouth is dry. He’licking his lips. He’s bug eyed. He’s nervous as a whore in church
i hope pdjt dug into the reps and senators finances with musk and doge while going after usaid to throw em off then treasury etc.and just keep it up.come sotu come out and name names and their grift all in front of the american people.
Senator Lankford’s eyes (far left) tells everything. He had the same identical look on January 6, 2021 as he was the one speaking in the Senate when they were ushered out for safe haven.
.
His eyes darted then like now.
We all know who that guttersnipe weasel really is! (And it AIN’T MAGA)!
“Well USAID, under scrutiny did poorly.” How stupid do you think we are? What a BOZO. “For some reason, Samantha Power has been texting me, but I have no idea why.” YOU ARE A BOZO.
