On July 28, 2026, President Donald Trump addressed a gathering of world leaders, administration officials, members of Congress, and family members at the Washington National Cathedral to honor the late former South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, who passed away earlier this month. Vice President JD Vance also spoke at a memorial held at Capitol Hill, describing Graham as a 'true American original.' Following the memorial, Graham's body was transported to the National Cathedral for the funeral service.

The funeral was attended by various dignitaries, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
