The Lindsey Graham Act would have imposed significant new sanctions on Russia from 18 October, but allowed the President to issue waivers. He just did. To avoid screaming, I went through every provision explaining them and indicating which he waived. Spoiler: All the ones that did anything.

When Trump vowed to end the Ukraine war in a day when running for president, who knew what he really had in mind was a quick win for Russia ? But beyond demanding Zelensky capitulate and give away large parts of Ukraine, Trump is bereft of ideas to appease Putin. He's emerged as a treacherous idiot.

What is Darline saying about this important shift away from her brother’s worthy cause? Can she still trust Trump.

Of course she will fall in line. I’d be shocked if she didn’t. Trump gave her all her political capital. If Lindsay were alive today, he’d cave too. That man had some real fear about the Epstein files. But at this point, with all that’s happening, we should investigate his “massive heart attack”

So the name ON the fucking bill has sanctioning Russia in it but Trump just exempted them. He just made a mockery of his “good friend’s” memory. His dopey little sister should drop out of the Senate race in disgust. And Republicans should be furious.

We know that Trump is weak and insane. Even so, it remains highly peculiar how he consistently bows to Putin’s wishes. What is Putin using to blackmail his puppet, Trump?

Not without Republican supprot and a lot of it. Even the most high on hopium optimistic case for the Democrats sees them winning AT MOST 55 Senate seats, and that's not going to happen. Overcoming a Presidential veto requires 2/3rds of the Senators voting, so 67 if all are present.

With the Epstein files act they were able to shame enough senators into voting for it such that he couldn’t veto it. I’m not so hopeful that this is the case here but the mood may change post November even if the numbers aren’t enough on paper

It’s time the rest of the world issue sanctions on America and its fraudster in charge plus his family and their companies Trump shouldn’t be allowed to get away with this systemic murder of Ukrainians and That’s exactly what he is allowing America what the absolute fuck are you doing

Sanctions only create leverage when the target can’t assume the pressure will be switched off. A waiver for every consequential measure turns a supposedly automatic threat into a presidential preference.

The point here is, Trump himself is too lazy, stupid and unaware to have actually done this himself, meaning that he is being aided and abetted by a wider team of enablers. This is being done by his minions on your tax dollars and is organised.

Anyone truly surprised Trump’s abject idiocy and cowardice would result in this blatantly treasonous action taken to support the invader against a democratic and sovereign republic? Trump his collaborators and enablers need to each be held accountable, French Resistance style.

Our crack media are shocked, shocked that the President who's been supported by/supporting his bff, Putin for a full decade of public life, has just publicly ended sanctions against the murderous Russian invader. Let's hear it for corporate media.🙄

That was Trump’s kick in the ass to Lindsey Graham’s sister. The whole country is disgusted with this liar and fraud.

Why is no one talking about the fact that Zacharia manipulated Trump into being press secretary in only a few weeks of air time? Imagine how easily another country could do it with a much more coordinated media and social media presence…
