Poisoned by Putin, killed by Iran: Theories continue in Lindsey Graham's death
According to NBC News, the Senator suffered from a "cardiac arrest" leading to his death. However, netizens had other thoughts.
Since the announcement of Lindsey Graham's death, more than one conspiracy theory has emerged online. First, the Zelenskyy curse, as some believe officials and leaders who meet Ukraine's president will be hit badly, either fired from their jobs or they end up quitting. In Graham's case, he passed away.
It is worth noting that Lindsey Graham and Zelenskyy met on July 10 in Kyiv.
On the other hand, a new theory believes that Russian spies were able to reach Lindsey Graham and poisoned him during his visit to the Ukrainian capital.
One activist wrote, "Currently, there's a circulating theory that says Vladimir Putin poisoned Lindsey Graham. Graham was constantly cursing Putin, supports Zelenskyy, and demands pumping American money into Ukraine to kill Russians."
The person continued, "Unconfirmed rumors (so far) say that one of Putin's spies managed to put a poison that causes a heart attack in Graham's food."
On the other side, Iranian accounts that were celebrating Graham's death, reshared that a protest in Tehran featured the U.S. Senator along with other American and Israeli leaders as if they were targets of Tehran.
