Comedian Delivers Mocking Cake to Lindsey Graham's Office 4 Days After Senator's Death

3 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jul 17

Summary

  • Elizabeth Booker Houston said she dropped off a cake at Lindsey Graham's Capitol Hill office carrying the message, “Congratudolences” and “your brother is burning in hell,” in a post shared Tuesday.
  • The stunt targeted Graham's family just after his death, with Darline Graham sworn in Tuesday to complete the South Carolina Republican's Senate term.
  • Online reaction split sharply: some users praised Houston, while many others called the act hateful, pointless and disrespectful to office staff.
  • Graham, 71, died Saturday night; an autopsy suggested aortic dissection due to arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease, though his office said the death certificate remains pending further toxicological and microscopic testing.
