Margaret Cho video mocking Lindsey Graham sparks right‑wing outrage

Comedian Margaret Cho posted a short video that mocked the death of U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R‑SC), beginning with the line “Adiós Lindsey, adiós Lindsey Graham.” The clip, which also referenced other Republican figures, was reposted by the anti‑LGBTQ+ account Libs of TikTok and highlighted by Fox News. The video provoked a wave of criticism from conservative commentators on X, who accused Cho of hateful behavior and called for a boycott of her work. Co‑host Ana Navarro noted that similar posts celebrating the deaths of political figures, including former President Trump, have circulated online. The controversy underscores ongoing cultural tensions between progressive entertainers and right‑wing media outlets.

The incident has drawn attention to the role of social‑media platforms in amplifying partisan disputes and the backlash faced by public figures who comment on political deaths.
