Trump Tells GOP To Add Iran To Graham's Russia Sanctions Bill

On Truth Social Sunday, Trump tagged the message IMPORTANT and credited the plan to Graham, whose Senate seat now sits vacant.

  • Trump posted the demand on Truth Social at 7:54am ET Sunday, marked IMPORTANT with three exclamation points.
  • He credited the idea to Lindsey Graham, the bill's original sponsor and chief architect.
  • Graham's Senate seat is vacant; Trump has already endorsed a replacement to serve his term.

Why it matters: A Truth Social post now sets the Senate's sanctions agenda, invoking a dead colleague's unfinished wish.
