I wonder if the Taliban who now rule Afghanistan with al-Qaeda elements present, contrary to President Biden’s beliefs, are allowing this speech to be carried?

Later Graham managed to falsely equate insurrectionists trying to overthrow the government with Black Lives Matter protesters:
I hold the same views of those who attacked the federal courthouse in Portland, Oregon and committed other acts of violence throughout our nation.

Lindsey Graham Supports Trump’s Coup While Condemning 1/6 Violence
By claiming that the facts surrounding the 2020 election and the 1/6 attack are political, Lindsey Graham was voicing his support for Trump’s coup. Nowhere in his tweets does Lindsey Graham state that President Biden won the election.
Sen. Graham supports Trump’s coup but just wants less violence and blood next time.
Republicans don’t want America to know the truth about 1/6, and any time they are confronted with it, they put their hands over their ears and react just like Lindsey Graham.
