Lindsey Graham Calls for the Assassination of Vladimir Putin on Live TV


3,313 views

On Fox News’ Hannity, U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham called for the assassination of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

As Russia invades Ukraine and threatens the West with nuclear war, Graham said the solution was to have Putin assassinated.

The clip quickly began going viral on social media.

It’s no surprise that Senator Graham called for assassination on Sean Hannity’s show, because Hannity himself has suggested that.

The Daily Caller confirms:

Fox News host Sean Hannity suggested Wednesday that the U.S. assassinate Russian President Vladimir Putin for his full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Hannity began the segment calling Putin a “murdering thug” that must be stopped by whatever means necessary. He then claimed the Russian leader has forfeited his “right to live” for the thousands of civilian casualties, among those being “children and women.”

“It’s a simple rule in life. If you invade an innocent country and you kill women and children and men, you forfeit your right to lead a country and you forfeit your right to live. And I hope the people around Vladimir Putin take action sooner than later.”

“Now currently the U.S. operates under a decades-old executive order signed by [former President] Gerald Ford that prohibits the U.S. government employees from engaging in political assassinations. But my final question tonight is when it comes to Putin, is it now time to visit the rule? My rule I like better. New rule. You invade a sovereign country, you kill innocent men, women and children, you forfeit your right to run a country and you forfeit your life to live. It’s that simple.”

“Cut off the head of the snake, the snake dies,” Hannity concluded.

However, it appears that many users on social media did not agree with what Senator Graham said.

In fact, the vast majority of users seemed to have a negative reaction.
