These Celebrity Ghouls Danced on Lindsay Graham’s Grave

Far-Left political comics show their ugliest side following Senator's sudden death

Margaret Cho has spent decades pleading for tolerance on behalf of the gay community.

The far-Left comic calls herself bisexual and became a queer icon thanks to that status and her LGBTQ activism. Her politics are progressive to a fault, and she’s no fan of the GOP.

Fine. Good. Nothing wrong or controversial there.

Yet when Sen. Lindsay Graham suddenly passed away at the age of 71 over the weekend, the reaction from Cho’s fellow liberals proved shocking.

Gross. Cruel. Unacceptable.

Sure, we might celebrate the death of a modern-day monster, like Osama bin Laden or Ted Bundy. Dancing on a politician’s grave immediately after his or her death is another matter.

Yet, that’s exactly what we see now with the rise of social media and, as Jimmy Failla puts it, the death of shame.

That meant figures like Cenk Uygur did just that. So, apparently, did Cho. And, along the way, she cheered on the death of another GOP figure, the sickly Sen. Mitch McConnell.

Cho shared a video where she said, “Bye, gurl” to the late senator, adding “good riddance.” She also mocked the notion that he might have been a closeted gay man in the process.

“From the closet to the coffin. Real seamless.”

The former is vile. The latter is precisely what one shouldn’t do to someone who wishes to keep his or her sexuality to themselves. Unless that person is a Republican, then all bets are off.

Apparently.

Not to be outdone, CNN contributor Michael Ian Black did his own dancing on Graham’s grave.

“More than anything, his legacy will be that of parasitic fealty. That his relationship with McCain seems, in retrospect, to be rooted in nothing more than opportunism, his relationship with Trump will be remembered as that of enabler-in-chief.”

Black currently has a cameo in the new David Wain comedy “Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass.”

Naturally, Sunny Hostin of “The View” had to weigh in in the worst way possible.

The most vile celebrity comment tied to Graham’s death, however, goes to character actor Ethan Embry.

I don’t see what the celebration is all about, there’s still 51 of em walking around.

By “em,” he means 51 other Republican senators. Embry shared the ghoulish comment on, where else, Bluesky social.

Now, if a right-leaning actor had shared similar thoughts it could have cost them work. These stars will face no such repercussion.
