Lindsey Graham responds after photos show him at Disney World
Graham said he was breaking clays after TMZ published images of him at Disney World during the shutdown, drawing mockery online.
- On Monday, Senator Lindsey Graham posted a photo of himself holding a shotgun in Edgefield County, South Carolina, shortly after viral images showed him with a bubble wand at Walt Disney World during a government shutdown.
- Images of Graham at the theme park emerged over the weekend amid a 44-day partial shutdown, with the Department of Homeland Security unfunded and 260,000 federal employees left without pay.
- Graham defended the trip, stating he attended a Friday meeting in South Florida with Trump official Steve Witkoff regarding Saudi Arabia-Israel normalization before traveling to Orlando to meet friends.
- Meghan McCain publicly denounced the trip, writing that South Carolina "can do so much better" than a senator pictured with a toy while federal workers face financial hardship.
- Critics dismissed the shotgun post as "damage control," arguing the rapid shift from bubble wand to firearm failed to mitigate public frustration over lawmakers vacationing during the legislative deadlock.
