Lindsey Graham’s Legacy on Brian Kilmeade Show | 2026-07-13 | 2026 | 2026-07 | Republican | Senate | FL | Rick Scott | S001217 | www.rickscott.senate.gov | rickscott | https://www.rickscott.senate.gov/press-releases/ | page_html | WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Rick Scott joined “the Brian Kilmeade Show” on Fox News Radio to remember Senator Lindsey Graham’s life and work following his unexpected death. Watch the full interview HERE. ON SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM’S LEGACY: “Everybody loved being around Lindsey. He was a patriot, he cared about this country, he cared about every American and our safety. He cared about our allies. He knew there was good in the world. He knew that Putin, Xi, the Ayatollah, and Kim Jong Un are evil and we’re the good guys. He’s a big loss and whoever takes his place, it’s going to be really hard to fill his shoes. … “In 2018, when I was not supposed to win my Senate race, he came down and campaigned for me. It was right after the Kavanaugh hearing. He was a superstar and everybody loved him… when I ran against [Mitch] McConnell to be the Leader in 2022, he stood with me and supported me… He was not part of the establishment crowd saying, ‘Oh I’m just going to do whatever leadership tells me to do.’ He had his views and he was passionate about them.” ON THE SENATE COMING BACK TO WORK TO PASS SAVE AMERICA ACT: “I hope as Republican and Democrat Senators come back from this two-week recess and they did what I did—go around my state, heard from everybody saying, ‘you’ve got to secure our elections.’ … “You have to pass the SAVE America Act… I know I’m going to work on it. I know Mike Lee is going to work on it. Ron Johson’s going to work on it. Whatever we have to do— if we have to do the talking filibuster for two-three months, whether we have to get rid of the filibuster, we’ve got to secure the elections… It’s the most important thing for our country, so let’s take as many days as it takes.” ### | 1 | 2026-07-14T07:08:55Z | 2026-07-14T07:10:52Z |
