Does anyone remember Graham's slurs, lies, and distortions against Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson? [View all]

Graham falsely accused her of being soft on child pornography offenders, constantly interrupted her her during her confirmation hearing, slammed her for her work as a public defender, etc.

I wonder how many remember how graham slammed Zelensky after trump and vance
ambushed Zelensky in an Oval Office meeting saying Zelensky acted disrespectfully, ignoring of course how trump and vance both were trying to essentially sell Ukraine down the river to appease putin.

He lied that planned parenthood was harvest organs of the unborn, voted against the ACA subsidies, etc. etc. etc.

He was not a nice person, and there wasn't a war he didn't like.

While he probably succumbed from a heart attack based on preliminary observations, why his family or spokes people though it was a good idea to be so coy about the cause of his death makes no sense except to cloud the typical lack of transparency that the entire republican machinery constantly presents.
