Graham further accused Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin of showing "weakness" and "failing our troops in the field" by not retaliating more forcefully despite the launch of airstrikes against three targets in Iraq on Monday. "I asked him a couple of months ago: Is there a red line? Would you tell our enemies publicly that if you kill an American, we are coming after you?" the senator noted. "If you really want to protect American soldiers, make it real to the ayatollah, you attack a soldier through a proxy, we’re coming after you." During CNN’s "State of the Union" earlier in December, Graham said Austin is so naïve and he has lost all confidence in the Pentagon secretary because he alleged that the latter is telling Israel things that are impossible to achieve. Back in the 2007 presidential campaign, former Arizona Senator John McCain infamously sang "Bomb Iran." Graham and McCain have had a long history of promoting the use of force abroad. The former, who is also a retired colonel in the U.S. Air Force, carried the torch after McCain died in 2018.If the President wants to protect American soldiers, make it clear to the Ayatollah, if you attack a soldier through a proxy, we’re coming after you. pic.twitter.com/RKIzREJxi9

The only firm that runs afoul of this law appears to be Chick-fil-A, which is closed on Sundays as an extension of its founder's conservative Christian values. Graham made a specific demand for the Democrats seated in the Empire State legislature to do as conservatives do and just leave the food chain well enough alone. He also posted on X, declaring "war" while warning: "Hands off our Chick-fil-A!" "The founders of Chick-fil-A made a decision early on to close on Sunday, consistent with their faith," he said in the social media post. "For any government to try to reverse this decision flies in the face of who we are as Americans." Critics were quick to point out how wrong it is for Graham to generalize that Republicans and conservatives are "tolerant." It would be gross misinformation to put it out there that the right "tolerates" left-cult ideologies.
