In a captivating episode of United Patriots Uprising, host Gary Binford sat down with Lindsey Graham—better known as the Patriot Barbie—a woman whose courage in the face of adversity has made her one of the most compelling voices in conservative America today.
A Nickname That Became a Badge of Honor
What began as a leftist mockery has become her calling card. When opponents created a meme calling her "Patriot Barbie" after she defied COVID lockdowns, Lindsey did something unexpected: she looked up both definitions, found nothing offensive, and embraced the moniker completely. "I imagined this person in their mom's basement being so frustrated that I took it and ran with it," she laughs, "as opposed to being offended and crawling under a rock."

The Great Awakening of 2020
Before 2020, Lindsey describes herself as "brainwashed, indoctrinated, minding my own business." She was running a successful 25-chair salon, managing multiple businesses, and raising her children—but spiritually asleep. When she reopened her Oregon salon against government mandates, everything changed. She faced death threats, violence, cancel culture's full fury, and ultimately lost all six businesses and her home.
But from those ashes came something extraordinary.
A Testimony of Transformation
Lindsey's story resonates because of its authenticity. She openly shares her past struggles—including a deeply personal abortion story that she now uses to help other women understand the lasting impact of that choice. "There's more than one victim in abortion," she explains. "There's the woman and the baby."
Her message isn't delivered from a place of judgment but from lived experience. She voted for Obama in 2008, embraced feminist ideologies, and followed mainstream narratives—until the consequences became personal.
Revival Through Relationship with Christ
At the heart of Lindsey's message is an unwavering conviction: America's problems are spiritual, not merely political. "We are not in a political war," she declares. "We are in a spiritual war."
She believes that true change comes from changing hearts for Jesus, which then transforms politics, policies, and culture. Whether discussing abortion, traditional values, or protecting children, everything flows from a biblical foundation that she describes as "unchanging" and "solid."
A Modern Messenger
With over 523,000 Instagram followers, Lindsey has built her platform on one principle: speaking truth. Her tattooed arms and hot pink lipstick might not fit the traditional conservative mold, and she knows it. But that's exactly why she's effective. "Liberals come up to me and start conversations," she notes. "They look at me and assume I'm not a Bible-thumping, Jesus-loving Trump supporter. And then that allows me to reach them on a level they didn't expect."
Taking Action Where You Are
Lindsey's call to action is practical and immediate: vote with your dollars. She urges Americans to stop funding companies that actively work against their values. "If you were in a physical war and your enemy ran out of bullets, would you give him bullets to shoot you?" she challenges. "When you fund companies that support the liberal agenda, that's exactly what you're doing."
Author, Speaker, Mother
Today, Lindsey is the author of multiple books, including her memoir "Targeted: One Mom's Fight for Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness" and the bestselling children's book "Alphabet Prayers for Toddlers." She travels the country speaking at Lincoln Dinners, pro-life events, and ministry platforms—always bringing her unique story of redemption and revival.

But perhaps most importantly, she's a homeschooling mother of three who has reorganized her entire life around biblical priorities. "If nothing else happens in my story," she reflects, "I believe that is enough for me—that God reorganized my priorities."
A Voice for This Moment
The Patriot Barbie represents something desperately needed in modern discourse: someone who has walked through fire, emerged transformed, and now fearlessly shares both her failures and her victories. She proves that your past doesn't disqualify you—it can become your most powerful testimony.
As America faces unprecedented challenges, voices like Lindsey Graham remind us that revival begins not in Washington D.C., but in surrendered hearts willing to stand firm on unchanging truth, regardless of the cost.
