Lindsey Graham Laundering Ukraine War Money

Former CIA officer Larry Johnson said U.S. money moved through Latvia and returned to Graham in “significant amounts.” He also claimed the Justice Department was investigating.
Former CIA officer Larry Johnson says U.S. money sent into the Ukraine war was routed through Latvia and flowed back into Lindsey Graham’s personal bank accounts.
Johnson made the accusation during a June 4, 2025 appearance on Stinchfield Tonight. He said he had seen bank records and claimed “significant amounts of money” had been laundered back to Graham. He also said the Justice Department was investigating.
The Carolina Courier reported that Johnson named Graham specifically and tied the alleged transfers to Latvia. The report also states that Johnson did not present the purported bank records or concrete evidence during the segment.
Johnson is not an anonymous account. PBS Frontline identifies him as a former CIA officer and former deputy director of the State Department’s Office of Counterterrorism.
Graham spent years as one of Washington’s most committed champions of the Ukraine war. In September, the White House announced that the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026 became law, expanding sanctions and tariffs against Russia.
Johnson’s allegation strikes at the heart of that war machine: public money moves east, the senator who demands escalation allegedly benefits, and the American people get another demand to pay.
