Lindsey Graham photographed with leader of white nationalist group Proud Boys
The South Carolina senator recently called Proud Boys a racist organization, however, photo shows him smiling with a known leader of the white nationalist group.
Just days after President Donald Trump appeared to support the white supremacist group, Proud Boys, during Tuesday nights presidential debate a photograph has recently surfaced showing Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) with a member and organizer of the organization. The photo shows Graham smiling for a photo-op with Joe Biggs, a known member and organizer of Proud Boys, which has been classified as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
In the photo, Graham and Biggs appear to be sitting in a restaurant, as there are waiters standing behind them. Biggs is a visible organizer and leader of Proud Boys based in Florida. Hes repeatedly been photographed front and center at demonstrations.
theGrio news website reached out to Sen. Grahams press office about the photo, however, a request for comment on if or how Graham knows Biggs personally was not responded to.
