'I Caution Lindsey': JD Vance Goes After Sen. Graham By Name On Live TV

Source: crooksandliars.com

Vice President JD Vance took a shot at one of President Donald Trump's closest allies on live television Monday.

By David Edwards — June 16, 2026

..............

Vance called out Sen. Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican and Trump's regular golfing partner, by name on ABC's Good Morning America — telling him to stop doubting the newly signed U.S.-Iran deal.

"'I am somewhat concerned that Iran's view of the agreement seems different than what the American negotiating team is claiming,'" host George Stephanopoulos said, reading from Graham's post on X. "Is that true?"

"No, George. It's not true," Vance shot back. "And I'd caution Lindsey Graham and anybody else not to believe the hardliner propaganda in Iran, but to believe what's actually in the agreement."

...................
Graham had been skeptical of the Iran negotiations for months. As recently as April, he warned the ceasefire negotiating document had "troubling aspects" and specifically called on Vance to answer for it before Congress.

2. "Believe what is actually in the agreement". So what is in the agreement? That is Super Delta Top Secret.

I was thinking of this. Where’s the Spanish Inquisition when they’re really needed?

And can they do couches? if you know what I mean, nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more.

I should know, me and him were in the same deployment command at the same base in Iraq (Al-Asad). Me and 95% of everyone else were too busy keeping these aircraft operational. If we did find time to read, it was pretty much Maxim, Stuff, King, Hombre or muscle mags. Mainly because we couldn't bring porn mags.

You'll thank me about the warning and avoid being subject to an article in the Naval Safety Center magazine.

His sexual history hidden with the Epstein gang.
Not much he can do, he does not wanna go back to “Racking balls till the sun comes up”, for a living.
Hell he can live off the gubment high on the hog with his entitlements.

9. We'd love to believe what's actually in the agreement. Too bad nobody can see it.

And frankly, I won't even trust it when we do see it. It would have to include some sort of binding statement by all parties that no additional conditions exist and that nothing has been excluded from the document on "national security" or other grounds.

10. Didn't JD 'caution' the Pope?

Is this a new thing, a ‘caution’ from JD? On a scale 1-10, which is worse? A ‘caution’ from JD or a ‘concern’ from Susan Collins?
