The War Senator: Lindsey Graham’s Ties to Defense Giants Leave South Carolinian’s Questioning His Loyalt

 

By The South Carolina Bulletin Investigations Desk

In diners across Columbia and gas stations off I‑95, the same sentiment keeps surfacing: Lindsey Graham’s not working for us anymore.

The senior senator from South Carolina has become one of Washington’s loudest voices calling for endless funding to fuel the war in Ukraine, even as his own state’s bridges crumble, hospitals close, and small businesses drown in red tape.

Graham calls it “an investment in democracy.”

But to growing numbers of South Carolinian’s, it looks like a profit-sharing scheme between Congress and the military industrial complex.

Decades into his Senate career, Graham’s donor network reads like a directory of the Pentagon’s favorite contractors.
