administration did not do this alone. they have had a lot of help oves a very long time from the reckless neoconservatives that run our foreign policy establishment.t. the main reason americans were so shocked by the fall of kabul last week is that for years people in washington have been lying to them about it. and telling them everything in afghanistan is just fine. it s improving, forever improving. our sacrifice is well worth it. our strategy is successful. just keep sending us money on young soldiers and we will make the world safer america. for decades, that s what they have told us. one of the main mouthpieces for these lies has been senator lindsey graham of south carolina. graham identifies as a republican but his views in real life are indistinguishable from tony blinken s or mark milley s, graham s permanent constituents in washington, not in south carolina. we have pulled together three representative sound bites that tell you the story of lindsey graham s personalre respon
