- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump welcomed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to the White House ahead of the funeral for U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, a staunch advocate for Kyiv in its conflict with Russia.
- South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham died July 11 at age 71; his sister, Darline Graham, has been appointed to fill his seat and will seek a full six-year term with Trump's endorsement.
