Graham, a South Carolina Republican and key Trump ally who was elected to the Senate four times, died aged 71 following a "brief and sudden illness," his office said on July 12, 2026. Graham made a name for himself with his work on foreign policy and in recent years urged both the Trump and Biden administrations to back Kyiv's fight against Russia's invasion. He was a staunch supporter of the Iran war. (Photo by Brendan SMIALOWSKI / AFP via Getty Images)
