Sen. Darline Graham opposes Trump's waiver of Russia sanctions law

Senator Darline Graham (R-S.C.) publicly disagreed with President Trump's executive order waiving sanctions imposed by a law signed by her late brother, former Senator Lindsey Graham. She stated she would prefer to maintain pressure on Russia, marking a rare split between the senator and the Trump administration.

Left-leaning outlets criticized Graham's response as insufficient, characterizing her objection as 'mild,' 'weak,' and 'beyond pathetic' given that Trump effectively gutted her brother's signature legislative legacy on Russia policy.

Center1

Center outlets reported Graham's statement straightforwardly, noting she expressed disagreement with the sanctions waiver while acknowledging shared goals with Trump on overall Russia policy.
