How did Lindsey Graham die and why are people speculating about it?
Adam, what's your point? The future looks bright.
A handshake is better than anything I ever signed, right here. You are a one-on-one? My son's right there.
I don't think I've ever said this before.
Okay. I think it's fair to say it was a busy weekend. A lot of stuff happened. And on top of a lot of stuff happening, also, this coach. There's a massive coach feud going on with Bellingham in England, which is a very, very interesting story. World Cup, of course. We'll cover that as well. Lindsey Graham, may he rest in peace, died at 71 years old right after coming back on his 10th trip from Kiev, Ukraine, if I'm not mistaken. And he made the phone call to the president. And then, boom, we heard the story. There's a lot of people that are saying good, bad things, conspiracy theories. We'll get into that. And there's one message, one speech he gave defending Kavanaugh that Vinny showed me yesterday. I couldn't believe it while I'm sitting there.
It's one of the best things I've heard a Senate say in a long time, defending his own camp and doing it in such an eloquent way. But again, he's a complicated individual. Mitch McConnell, same thing. They hadn't heard him speak for a minute and eventually post something with a newspaper holding up. And there's a lot of memes going on. A lot of people are having a lot of fun with Mitch McConnell. One of the meme was him dancing. One of the memes was him with Elvis Presley and Tupac and all these guys. And then a lot of people asked and said, you know, Beatles breakup. Yeah, a lot of people asked and said, why don't you just post a video instead of a newspaper holding? But I mean, how much there is to it, who knows?
I can tell you he's already stated last year that he's retiring January 1st of 2027 and he's not seeking reelection. So his job is going to be going to somebody anyway. So for conspiracy theorists, it's a fun story to go through. We will. We're glad he's doing better and he's with his wife. Rubio, I think last week we showed a story, Vinny, of the fellow Laotian man who allegedly, not allegedly, he did rape his wife's sister who was 10 years old and she didn't file any charges. And Tim Walz is like, well, it's just their culture. Leave the man alone. You know, if she doesn't want to file anything, it's okay. Marco Rubio doesn't play around. He came out and said, listen, you're getting deported, you child rapist, you.
Yes. No hesitation. I don't care if you put the fear of death into the 10-year-old girl at the time that you ended up marrying her sister. And whether they're okay with you or not, we're not okay with that in America. Get the hell out of here. And that's my interpretation of how he said it, Marco. Marco said it more eloquently, but I'm just kind of interpreting a little bit. You're a layout at here. Yeah, exactly. And then aside from that, Iran and U.S., a nasty situation. Obviously, this memorandum of understanding is going very smoothly. Everything's working out. They're attacking left and right. And it's not looking good. It's not looking good what's going on there. And you should hear what the state TV of Iran was saying when Lindsey Graham was dead, celebrating and a bunch of other people celebrating with that.
But he was one of the guys that was helping out Reza Pahlavi a lot. And so, you know, with potentially doing things to liberate Iranians. And so they do not like Lindsey Graham. But there's a lot of nasty things going on. Iran attacked, I believe, Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, a few different places, Oman, a few other places. And so we're in the middle of the 30-day, the 60-day that they said they're going to negotiate. It's not going well in the first 30 days. So we'll see what happened there. Mamdani was allegedly supposed to meet with the ambassador of Iran. Not a big deal. I didn't check my schedule. I don't know. I don't know. And we're supposed to believe you.
What were the reactions and memorial moments to Lindsey Graham’s legacy?
I don't know. My team's doing it. I don't know. Let's just say I've got a big meeting. You don't think I know my big meetings. What do you think? Oh, well, hey, Mr. President.
