While speaking Sunday evening during a fundraising event for the Tzedek Association, a Jewish non-profit focused on criminal justice and prison reform, Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham said, “The reason I had to cut the speech off a little bit… I don’t know what, but this might be the night,” suggesting potential strikes tonight against Iran. Graham adds, “It’s just a matter of time now. It’s just a matter of time. Why is it just a matter of time? And you know what I’m talking about, don’t you? This tyrannical regime needs to end. We need to end this for the good people of Iran and for our own selves and the people of Israel.”
