Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who has no children, was spotted spending his Spring break at Disney World over the weekend, as the government remains in a partial shutdown and Department of Homeland Security employees go without paychecks.
Graham was seemingly visiting the theme park alone, and he was photographed several times, having brunch at Chef Mickey’s and walking around the park.
In one photograph, he was seen strutting around while carrying a toy bubble wand for children.

TMZ reports that Graham was holding the bubble wand for a little girl while she was in the bathroom, according to an eyewitness.
This comes after the Senate passed a garbage funding bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security, but without funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and ditched town for vacation.
Graham claims he was meeting with Trump officials in Florida and went to the resort afterward to meet with friends.
“I voted 7 times to fully fund the government. Call a Democrat,” Graham told TMZ.
President Trump on Sunday called the Senate’s funding measure “a shame” and said the Senate Republicans need to stop “playing it too soft” and terminate the filibuster while speaking to reporters on Air Force One.
Of Senate Leader Thune, Trump said, “I like him so much. He’s a high-quality person,” but added that he needs to step it up and lead in order to pass the SAVE America Act and reopen the government with full funding for DHS.
