Republican demands Lindsey Graham be denied access to the Oval Office

Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL) called Wednesday for Sen. Lindsey Graham's Oval Office credentials to be revoked, citing his outsized influence on President Donald Trump's military decisions.

Graham, who previously called Trump a "race-baiting, xenophobic, religious bigot," has become a close presidential advisor during Trump's second term and a key architect of the Iran war strategy.

Graham claims he convinced Trump to pursue the military operation, telling Politico he discussed Iran's threat to Middle East stability before Trump took office and pushed the president toward backing Israeli military action. Graham stated he overcame internal resistance to the bombing campaign, telling Trump "you want to have your fingerprints on this."

Democrats and several Republicans have criticized Graham's aggressive stance, comparing his rhetoric to the Iwo Jima invasion and his advocacy for regime change in Venezuela and Cuba. Whether Graham's access will actually be restricted remains uncertain.
