Badlands Daily: 7/13/26 - Lindsey Graham's Death, Colombia's Election Bombshell & Iran Strikes Again

CannCon and Zak Paine open with the shock news that Senator Lindsey Graham has died, walking through the medical examiner's initial cause of death and the wave of conspiracy chatter already swirling around it, plus a couple of throwback clips reminding everyone why Graham was such a polarizing figure. From there they dig into a stunning State Department statement pressuring Colombia over its disputed election results, drawing a very pointed comparison to how the same institutions have talked about election integrity here at home. The back half turns to Iran, where a third round of US strikes hits after another attack in the Strait of Hormuz, competing claims about the waterway being closed, and fresh reporting on old regime ties that has both hosts raising an eyebrow. Expect plenty of live reactions and a Monday morning dose of skepticism.
