(DCNF)—Republican South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham said Sunday that he does not believe the U.S. will have “boots on the ground” in Iran following the bombing of three nuclear facilities.
President Donald Trump announced the U.S. military’s “very successful attack” against its primary target, Fordow, along with Natanz and Esfahan, on Saturday night, causing uncertainty about Iran’s next move. Graham, who supports the president’s action, told “Meet the Press” host Kristen Welker that he does not see American troops fighting on the ground in Iran.
“No, I don’t think I see boots on the ground in our future,” Graham said. “But I do see Israel not stopping. Israel’s not gonna live this way anymore. They’re not gonna be subject to missile attack every day and every night, living in bunkers. They’re gonna go after the heart of this regime, they’re gonna take it down one or two ways. Make it change or replace it.”
The military left from Missouri and dropped B-2 stealth bombers onto the nuclear facilities, U.S. officials said. During an address to the nation Saturday night, Trump warned that Iran could face a tragedy “far greater” than what has been witnessed in the past several days if it does not seek peace.
Vice President J.D. Vance said during a Sunday interview on “Meet the Press” that the U.S. is “not at war” with Iran, but instead is “at war” with the country’s nuclear program.
Graham also disputed some members of Congress, including Democrat California Sen. Adam Schiff and Republican Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie, who stated that Trump acted unconstitutionally by carrying out the action without the approval of Congress.
“[Trump] was within his Article II authority. Congress can declare war or cut off funding. We can’t be the commander-in-chief. You can’t have 535 commander-in-chiefs. If you don’t like what the president does in terms of war, you can cut off the funding. But declaring war is left to the Congress … He had all the authority he needs out of the Constitution. They’re wrong,” Graham said.
Trump further said during the address that Iran had been “killing our people,” chanting “Death to America” and badly injuring Americans for decades, and warned that the country must make peace in order to stop future attacks from being carried out by the U.S.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
