John Doyle explains why we’ll end up missing Lindsey Graham



Lindsey Graham’s death marks the end of one of the most consequential — and controversial — careers in modern Republican politics.

And while many conservatives loved to hate him while he was alive, BlazeTV host John Doyle believes that few knew how much the longtime South Carolina senator actually accomplished for their movement.

“You may remember September 27, 2018. If you were online that day, you already remember exactly where you were. Brett Kavanaugh is being potentially confirmed to be a Supreme Court justice, and it’s not looking good,” Doyle begins.

“He’s dying on live television. There are accusations from that woman ... doing the crocodile tears, and we all had to just pretend that OK, yes, believe all women. So true. Republicans on the committee are looking like hostages,” he recalls.


“And then the man the Tea Party spent, like, a decade trying to primary just leans into his microphone and has a little bit of a patriot go-off moment. He says, ‘This is the most unethical sham since I’ve been in politics,’” he continues, referencing Lindsey Graham.

“Conservative media started cutting, you know, Lindsey Graham 2.0 highlight reels. Literally, in my first-ever video in October 2018, I covered this story, and I called this man based,” he adds.

Kavanaugh then got confirmed, despite the slogan “Believe all women” being repeated by feminists all over the country.

“In a room on camera with a Supreme Court seat on the line, the senator willing to torch 20 years of his kind of, like, bipartisan reputation — that was Lindsey Graham,” Doyle says.

“Everyone on that committee had the same microphone, and one guy chose to use it, and that was Lindsey Graham,” he adds.

Not only that, but for the last two years, Graham chaired the Senate Budget Committee.

“Graham was the gatekeeper. He shepherded the big, beautiful bill through unanimous Democrat opposition and some genuinely ugly, you know, GOP infighting. Then came this year’s reconciliation package, funding immigration enforcement, literally the largest increase in funding ever for the rest of Trump’s term. And sitting on his desk the day he died,” Doyle explains.

“All of that was moving. All of that was in progress, and it was because of this guy’s effort,” he says. “Who’s going to chair that committee now? Who’s going to fill that vacuum? Is it going to be somebody who’s actually more effective? Is it going to be somebody who’s more loyal to Trump and his agenda and his party?”

While Doyle admits there are many things he did not agree with Graham on, he does believe the senator was effective and ultimately stood for America.

And those laughing about his passing don’t realize why they’re actually laughing.

“You know, it’s easy to piss on a guy’s grave. It’s harder to be so effective that you can inspire people to want to piss on your grave,” Doyle says. “That’s my point.”

Former adviser to Andrew Cuomo says New York governor sexually harassed her 'for years'



A former adviser to Andrew Cuomo claims the Democratic governor of New York sexually harassed her "for years" when they worked together.

Lindsey Boylan served as deputy secretary for economic development and special advisor in the Cuomo administration from March 2015 until October 2018, according to Newsweek. On Saturday, Boylan accused Gov. Cuomo of sexual harassment from when she was an adviser to him.

In a series of tweets, Boylan outlined her experiences with sexual harassment, which included allegations against Cuomo.

"My first experience of workplace sexual harassment was when my mom got her first real office job after graduating from college when I was in high school," Boylan wrote. "She was so excited to be taken 'seriously.' Her bossed isolated her and kissed her. She never had that type of job again."

"It was then how I learned how hard it is for women. How hard this world can be for us when we are trying to be taken seriously and help our community. How easily jerks can destroy the lives of women," she continued. "And I promised myself I would never let those kind of guys win. I would work hard my whole life to put myself in positions of power to change things. To end the violence & corruption. Give voice to the voiceless. I am not stopping. I refuse. I will never give up."

"Yes, @NYGovCuomo sexually harassed me for years," the Cuomo accuser attested. "Many saw it, and watched. I could never anticipate what to expect: would I be grilled on my work (which was very good) or harassed about my looks. Or would it be both in the same conversation? This was the way for years."

"Not knowing what to expect what's the most upsetting part aside from knowing that no one would do a damn thing even when they saw it. No one. And I *know* I am not the only woman," she proclaimed.

"I'm angry to be put in this situation at all. That because I am a woman, I can work hard my whole life to better myself and help others and yet still fall victim as countless women over generations have. Mostly silently," Boylan concluded. " I hate that some men, like @NYGovCuomo abuse their power."

Earlier this month, Boylan declared that "working for Andrew Cuomo" was the "most toxic team environment" she had ever encountered. The former Cuomo adviser noted that waitressing at Friendly's restaurant as a teenager was an "infinitely more respectful environment," even with customers who poorly tipped.

Boylan added that "if people weren't deathly afraid" of Cuomo, that "they'd be saying the same thing and you'd already know the stories."

"Seriously, the messages and texts I receive when I speak the truth about this...it's a whole book of people who have been harmed," Boylan said of other alleged Cuomo victims.

Boylan claimed that if you're not doing Cuomo's "dirty work," then "your life working for him is endlessly dispiriting."

The former aide said that she "tried to quit three times before it stuck."

Boylan is currently running as a Democratic candidate for Manhattan Borough president in the upcoming 2021 election.

Previously, Boylan ran against Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) in the 2020 Democratic primary. In the 10th congressional district election, Nadler received 68% of the vote compared to only 22% for Boylan.
