regarding the sudden death of Lindsey Graham that I want to discuss on this video. Before I started the Midas Touch Network, I was a civil litigator and I supervised hundreds of second autopsies performed by world renowned forensic pathologists and so I have an understanding of some of the questions that need be asked. The purpose of this video is not to veer into the realm of conspiracy. It is to stick with the facts and to arm you with the knowledge and to arm others with the knowledge and to provide the Questions that need to be answered. So let's just break this down. Here's how it's being described on state regime media. FOX an initial examination from the D.C. medical Examiner's Office has determined that Senator Lindsey Graham died as a result of an aortic dissection due to the arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease that he had. In layman's terms, this means a tear in the aorta caused by hardening and narrowing of arteries as a result of underlying cardiovascular disease. The D.C. medical Examiner's Office put out the following statement. The death certificate will be pending until all the toxicological and microscopic testing are finalized. And at that point, the death certificate will be updated to reflect the cause of death and appropriately classify the manner of death. Now, before Lindsey Graham passed away, he had told individuals that he was feeling sick. He actually made a comment, I can't die now. I still need to do the Russia sanctions. You'll recall that on Friday, Lindsey Graham was in Ukraine. He held a press conference there before heading back to the United States. Uh, the last person he seemed to have spoken with was Donald Trump. Donald Trump said he spoke with Lindsey Graham. Hussein tired. And here, here's more of what we're learning as it's being reported from another state regime source Axios. But then I want to get into, you know, what I see as some of these red flags as well. So Senator Lindsey Graham held one final phone call with Donald Trump before his death discussing Ukraine, a Russia sanctions bill and possible new US Strikes on Iran. After the call, Graham someone he wasn't feeling well, but planned to seek medical attention after his scheduled Sunday TV appearance. He reportedly joked, I can't die now. I still need to do the Russia sanctions, get Iran sorted out, and do Israeli, Saudi normalization. He died several hours later. And then, as you know, Lindsey Graham's office put out the statement as follows. On the Evening of Saturday, July 11, US Senator Lindsey Graham passed away from a brief and sudden illness. Senator Graham's family appreciates prayers at this time and asks for privacy during this incredible difficult period. Donald Trump put out the statement that said, senator Lindsey Graham, one of the greatest people and senators I have ever known is dead. He was always working and was a true American patriot. Lindsey will be greatly missed. Details and arrangements to follow. So sad. Donald J. Trump. He then also posted a message that I'm ordering all American flags through the United States to be lower to half mast, although that's the terminology for Navy. Until Saturday evening at 6pm God bless you, Lindsey. Donald J. Trump Now FBI Director Cash Patel put out a statement saying that the FBI is assisting local authorities and has made every necessary resource available. Chad Pergrim explains from colleague Jake Gibson. FBI agents are assisting MPD officers with the normal process at Senator Graham's house. There is no indication of foul play at this point. According to two federal law enforcement sources, MPD is the lead law enforcement agency at this point. Now, I want to highlight the fact that had heart attacks in general have very frequently been given as the cause for Russian assassination attempts. The CIA developed its own weapon that could induce a heart attack in foreign intelligence agencies across the world have access to this type of technology. And again, I'm not saying that this is what happened here. I want to arm you with some data points though, because what you would need to do is an extensive toxicology exam and you'd probably even need to bring in an expert botanist and someone who understands some of the extracts of different types of plants to be able to try to trace potential things that could or could not be in the bloodstream that may ultimately induce the heart attack. That may induce. This is an article from July 7th of 2026, which is notable, right, because we're talking about, you know, just last week so, the CIA's heart attack gun, a cold war weapon for targeted assassinations. And it talks about how there was a committee in the 1970s led by Senator Frank Church. It was the Church committee. And one of the things that they described was a weapon. This is real. CIA had developed and other intelligence agencies developed a weapon that resembled a Colt M1 9111911 pistol with a scope. But it didn't fire the.45 caliber bullets. Instead, it fired a frozen pellet of saxitoxin, a poisonous substance derived from shellfish that consumed tox, toxic algae blooms. The pellets could be silently fired up to 100 meters away. It would enter the body through a pinprickentury wound. The poison would then melt. Within 10 minutes, the victim would be dead. Again, a poison dart the width of a human hair and a quarter of an inch long that was fired from this and it would induce a heart attack. It was referred to in the CIA as the heart attack gun. Also the kgb, the Soviet Union, they developed their own version. Bodan Shashtinsky, one of the KGB's hired guns, was known to have murder two Ukrainian anti Soviet activists Lev Rabbit and Stepan Bandera in the 1950s with a gun that sprayed cyanide in their face, causing death within minutes. Their causes of death both looked like heart attacks. The CIA learned their true cause of death when Stashinski event defected to the west in 1961. But there are more recent examples. In 2018 there were between 12 and 18 Russian oligarchs and Russian officials who died under very mysterious circumstances. And you take the story of a guy by the name of and a lot of them died in the uk. You take the story of Alexander Popenschny and his body was found in November of 2012. An exile Russian banker in the UK in fetal position, pale, cold, displaying very faint signs of life. He was cooperating against the Soviet Union, against Russia with the UK in 2010. Initial toxicology tests on paralpins body revealed nothing suspicious and police said they had no evidence of foul play. And that's what we're hearing with Lindsey Graham, no evidence of foul play. But later tests perform form by an expert botanist at Kew Gardens suggested the presence of a rare and deadly plant toxin within the stomach. Gelsmium, a flowering plant native to China and Southeast Asia known as Heartbreak Grass because its leaves, if swallowed, cause cardiac arrest. Further tests of the compound found in Peripatentine could not definitively identify whether it was geselmium. And an inquest into the death was suspended last year pending more tests. So there was just a lot of red flags though. Is that what happened? Or was this very similar to what we currently believe happened with Lindsey Graham? Let's also not forget this article from 2022 from the Atlantic, Sudden Russian Death Syndrome. It's not a great time to be an oligarch who's unenthusiastic about Putin's war in Ukraine. Here's a list of people you should not currently want to be. A Russian sausage tycoon, a Russian gas industry executive, the editor in chief of a Russian tabloid, a Russian shipyard director, the head of a Russian ski resort, a Russian aviation official, a Russian rail magnate. Anyone answering to such description probably ought not stand near open windows in almost any country. And it talks about how there have been these dozens of suspicious and mysterious deaths across the world. And they also include suspected poisonings and suspicious heart attacks with the kind of death grass, the heartbreak grass, that I noted before.

thousands of members of the Midas Mighty. Remember within the Epstein files, in one of those files, June 24, 2018, Jeffrey Epstein is sending a message to Thorban Jorglon Thorban and I'll read to you what he says. He says, Churkin was great. He understood Trump. After our conversations, Again, this is June 24, 2018. It's not complex. He must be seen to get something. It's that simple. And then Epstein is writing to Thorban Jaglin and saying, I think you might suggest to Putin that Lavrov, Sergei Lavrov can get insight talking to me. Vitaly Churkin used to do that, but he died. Question mark, exclamation point. Now, Cherkin died February 2017 at age 64. He was the Russian ambassador to the United nations. And he died in New York under very mysterious circumstances of a heart attack with kind of circumstances very similar to what, what we're hearing about with Lindsey Graham. Now, RT Russian TV posted this video of Lindsey Graham earlier in the day. Lindsey Graham's ecstatic about plan to put US Tariffs on Russian oil before sudden death. May be too ecstatic. Russia TV says here, play this clip. Senator, how you doing? Is there a foreign war you don't support? I support wars that make America safer. Thank you, sir. Now, when Lindsey Graham was in Ukraine, you know, he, he actually looked pretty decent. I mean, you know, that's not to suggest that that condition couldn't rapidly deteriorate. But reminder, remember, here's what he looked like on Friday when he was in Ukraine. So you can see for yourself. Now, as Megan Mobs explains regarding Senator Graham's tragic passing of cardiac arrest, that's not an adequate answer. Cardiac arrest tells us how his life ended. It does not tell US why his heart stopped. Given the threat environment, the identities of America's adversaries, and Senator Graham's role. You know, there could be lots of issues raised here. Igor Suska says amid speculation that it could have been Russia or somebody else assassinated Lindsey Graham by using a sophisticated biochemical agent designed to mimic a natural heart attack that uses the body's natural metabolic process to destroy the evidence, modern forensic methods will likely identify it. The key is whether the circumstances warrant forensic pathology without any inside information. I believe so. Even if a toxic substance is engineered to break down almost instantly in the bloodstream, it doesn't just cease to exist. The body's liver and cellular enzymes break the chemical down into metabolite secondary compounds. The primary toxin may have a half life of only minutes or hours, but its specific metabolic fingerprints often remain stable in biological symptoms for much longer. Now, we know that the Trump regime is incompetent and mishandles everything, but you would actually want to do not just a full tox screening, but. But you would want the FBI or the intelligence community to engage in thorough tests to bring in renowned botanists and people who understand the very types of chemicals that the CIA had worked on, that the KGB had worked on in order to try to further assess what's going on or what could be going on now. Now let's talk about the radio traffic the evening that Lindsey Graham died. 8:27pm Engine 7 and Medic 7 were dispatched to Graham's home on South Capitol street southeast. At 8:32, Engine 7 requested a call back to get someone inside to open the locked door. 8:33 Dispatcher reported the caller said she was not in the home and the door is unlocked. 8:34. Dispatcher reported that the caller asked if they knocked on the door, believing the patient would answer. Notice the term patient? Yes. Dispatcher said the caller is coming from Baltimore. The dispatcher asked Engine 7 if they would like a ladder truck company to force entry and asked about the need for D.C. police. Engine 7 said they will need police, but they can handle forced entry into the home. And you may have seen the TMZ photos that have surfaced recently of Lindsey Graham's body leaving. But I want to know more about this call from Baltimore. This female who called. What was the relationship with Lindsey Graham? Was she being told by him that she. That he didn't feel good? Was his last call actually with Donald Trump? And you know, it's notable. I mean, Lindsey Graham posted about six days ago. least they used a good photo of me. Judge me by My enemies referring to the Iranian mortars at Ayatollah Khamenei's funeral, who are having images and visuals of Lindsey Graham being a target of Iran. Could he be a target of Russia? Could he be a target of other intelligence agencies, whether it's the Mossad or otherwise? You know, could he be, you know, or is this 71 year old guy has this aortic condition and it was building up slowly but surely. We know, we believe he drank heavily and, you know, didn't seem to necessarily have the most healthy, you know, habits out there. Donald Trump said that he spoke to Lindsey Graham minutes before Graham's death. This is what Donald Trump had to say. Play this clip right here.
H
And just to make that point, I mean, authorities were called to his home responding to initial reports of a cardiac arrest. Again, his office saying a brief and sudden illness. Do you have any more details?
I
I would think it would be that because when I spoke to him, it could have been, you know, minutes before based on, you know, the, based on the fact that I heard about the call, whatever time that was so shortly before. But it had to be something like that because he was, other than being tired, he was fine. And so it had to be something like that. That would just be a quick end. And maybe that's not the worst way to go. You know, he had some fine moments.
B
You know, one of the things that I think, you know, also raise questions on a number of levels as well, is that after Lindsey Graham's death, Mitch McConnell, 84 years old. Lindsey Graham, 71 years old. Mitch McConnell posted a proof of life photo holding a newspaper from yesterday, I guess to try to prove that, you know, that this was a fresh photo, but was also raising red flags that why would you not do a video, right? I mean, okay, you did a photo, but do a video so we can hear how you sound. And, you know, are you able to put words together or, you know, so to me, one of the big red flags there, but also, as you read this statement that, you know, appears to be riddled with lies. And, you know, we appreciate it, we'd love to get back to the Senate, but the doctors tell me I need to stay here. It's just fascinating that there's no mention at all about Lindsey Graham, you know, which is also suspicious. If you were to be doing this the day after Lindsey Graham died and you're friends with Lindsey Graham and you want to show your own proof of life, wouldn't you mention Lindsey Graham in the statement somewhere there? And then I'll just say this as well. Lindsey Graham's death has now been used by Donald Trump and MAGA to further pursue their fascist ends. All right, we got to do ground invasions in Iran and we've got to blow up Iran to honor Lindsey Graham. We gotta pass the Voter Suppression act to honor Lindsey Graham. We've got a rally around Trump's fascist agenda. That's what Lindsey would want. Lindsey would want us to do these things. So with all of this. Well, it should be noted, too, that Bill Pulte is running the odni, the Office for the Director of National Intelligence that the Trump regime has gutted. Most of our top intelligence people have been pushed out or silenced at this point as well. And, you know, you put all of this together and those are the questions that I think again, need to be asked. It is not wild fantasy crazy talk to say, could a foreign intelligence agency or domestic. Foreign or domestic, or anybody, you know, intelligence agency utilize weapons that produce an outcome that we know to be the outcome. What are the aims? What are the objectives? Is it, you know, and to raise those questions, and I think just slapping it down as that's crazy talk, that's absurd. Again, I want to be very, very careful in the reporting and not to say this is what definitely happened, I don't know. And I don't want to be reckless and irresponsible just for throwing things out. But I think it is important to ask those questions. And that's what we'll keep on looking at here. And then if ultimately all the boxes are checked and we'll at least have a. We'll at least have a thorough answer, you know, but let me know what you think in the comments. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 7 million. Thanks for watching, everybody. New Midas Merch.

Episode: "New Questions Surround Lindsey Graham's Death"
Date: July 13, 2026
Hosts: Ben, Brett & Jordy Meiselas
This episode dives deep into the sudden and suspicious death of Senator Lindsey Graham, focusing on the circumstances, official responses, historical context of politically motivated deaths by apparent heart failure, and the risks of jumping to conspiracy versus the need for critical inquiry. Drawing on Ben Meiselas's background as a civil litigator familiar with forensic evidence, the brothers explore red flags, notable media statements, historical cases, and the broader political implications.
Ben: “I want to arm you with… the questions that need to be answered.” (03:16)
Ben: “Given the threat environment… and Senator Graham’s role, there could be lots of issues raised here.” (15:16)
Trump (clip): “It could have been, you know, minutes before… he was, other than being tired, fine. And so it had to be something like that. That would just be a quick end.” (20:16)
Ben Meiselas:
“I want to arm you with… the questions that need to be answered.” (03:16)
“Had heart attacks… very frequently been given as the cause for Russian assassination attempts… The CIA developed its own weapon that could induce a heart attack.” (08:50)
“It is not wild fantasy crazy talk to say, could a foreign intelligence agency or domestic… utilize weapons that produce an outcome that we know to be the outcome.” (22:25)
“Cardiac arrest tells us how his life ended. It does not tell us why his heart stopped.” (15:46)
Donald Trump:
“It could have been, you know, minutes before… he was, other than being tired, fine. And so it had to be something like that. That would just be a quick end. And maybe that's not the worst way to go.” (20:16)
The episode maintains a balance between sharp, fact-driven legal analysis (courtesy of Ben’s experience) and the familiar banter and skepticism that defines the brothers’ style. Humor is scarce in this grave episode, replaced with a persistent, almost investigative urgency and open calls for accountability.
This episode presents a sobering, evidence-driven exploration of Senator Lindsey Graham’s sudden death—raising warranted questions without promoting conspiracies. The Meiselas brothers analyze the sequence of events, draw historical analogies to other high-profile deaths by apparent heart failure, and call for diligence and transparency in the investigation. They highlight the risks of both reckless speculation and institutional complacency, and reflect on the possible political consequences emerging in the wake of Graham’s passing.
