My Dearest Sarah,\n\nIndications are strong that we shall move in a few days on Five Guys. \n\nSarah, my love for you is deathless, and yet, my love of chicken comes over me like a strong wind, and bears me irresistibly on with all those chains, to the battlefield\u2026https://twitter.com/LindseyGrahamSC/status/1415387016313950210\u00a0\u2026

Dearest mother, General Graham has called my unit into service forthwith. I expect the travels from Tennessee to South Bend to take some months, so am preparing for a long winter at South Bend. \n\nLest there be any doubt, it is my pleasure to serve in this most gallant fight.https://twitter.com/lindseygrahamsc/status/1415387016313950210\u00a0\u2026

Imagine if @LindseyGrahamSC showed half as much interest in defending democracy as he does in defending chicken sandwiches.https://twitter.com/lindseygrahamsc/status/1415387016313950210\u00a0\u2026

There has never been a political party this wholly focused on low-brow B.S. There's a pandemic, a climate crisis and widespread income inequality, but this mope is all-in on a damn self-righteous fast-food chicken chain. Unreal.https://twitter.com/LindseyGrahamSC/status/1415387016313950210\u00a0\u2026

Lindsey Graham is ready to stand up for a fried chicken corporation but won't stand up for our democracy by investigating a physical attack on our Capitol. \n\nCorporations are who the GOP protect while the Democrats fight to protect America.https://twitter.com/LindseyGrahamSC/status/1415387016313950210\u00a0\u2026
