President Trump is scheduled to campaign with Sen. Darline Graham (R-S.C.) in South Carolina on Wednesday, days after he waived sanctions against Russia that are outlined in a legislative package named after her late brother, Sen. Lindsey Graham. NPR, CBS News, The Hill and Newsweek report that the two differ on how best to pressure Russia to end the war in Ukraine. The Hill reports that Trump issued the waivers by executive order late on a Friday. Darline Graham did not criticize the move, though she said she would personally choose to keep the pressure on Russia. The Hill also reports that some Republicans have called the waivers a slight on Lindsey Graham’s legacy.
