The casket of late senator Lindsey Graham departs US Capitol
The casket of Sen. Lindsey Graham departed the US Capitol on Tuesday (July 28) following a memorial service honoring the late Republican senator. President Donald Trump, who Graham denounced early in his political career before becoming a staunch supporter, is due to speak at the funeral at the Washington National Cathedral in the afternoon. In addition to Tuesday's ceremonies in Washington, there will be funeral services for Graham on Wednesday in South Carolina, where he will be buried. Graham, a South Carolina Republican who died suddenly from a heart ailment on July 11 at age 71, was a defense hawk who regularly called for an interventionist US role on the world stage and strongly backed both Israel and Ukraine. In recent months, he had been a stalwart defender of the unpopular Iran war.
