Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) called for the assassination of Russia President Vladimir Putin on Thursday evening while talking to Sean Hannity on Fox News.
According to Senator Graham, the assassination of Vladimir Putin is "the only way" that the war between Russia and Ukraine will end.
"Is there a Brutus in Russia? Is there a more successful Colonel Stauffenberg in the Russian military? The only way this ends is for somebody in Russia to take this guy out. You would be doing your country - and the world - a great service," Graham said to Hannity and in a tweet on Thursday.

Adding, "The only people who can fix this are the Russian people. Easy to say, hard to do. Unless you want to live in darkness for the rest of your life, be isolated from the rest of the world in abject poverty, and live in darkness you need to step up to the plate."
Sean Hannity references a decades-old rule forbidding US government employees from engaging in political assassination:

The senator's comments drew harsh criticism across social media from all sides of the political aisle, except for Hannity who asked on Wednesday if it was time to rescind the decades old rule forbidding US government employees from engaging in political assassination.
