Late Saturday night, Graham's staff announced on X that Lindsey had passed away after "a brief and sudden illness." An exact cause of death was not disclosed.
As you may know, Graham was a HUGE supporter of President Trump, championing many of his policies, especially regarding the conflicts in the Middle East involving Israel.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a statement, saying Lindsey "devoted his life to defending America, strengthening our alliance and standing up for the free world.
Netanyahu added, “Israel has lost one of its greatest friends. America has lost a great patriot. I have lost a beloved friend.”
