President Donald Trump on Friday signed an executive order that puts on hold a sweeping new sanctions package targeting the Russian economy, telling Congress the pause was in the national interest. Trump personally signed the legislation just last month and his move came just two days before a deadline set in the law itself for its implementation. It drew shift condemnation from congressional Democrats. Named after late South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, the legislation had sought to clamp down more quickly on the flow of financial resources fueling the war against Ukraine.
Staff: Congress (We the People) voted for the sanctions, Trump signs the bill and then a week later he Kisses Putins Ring. This can only show what a two faced person he really is. The bill was meant to help Ukraine in the long run by cutting off money for the Hitler of today but Trump decides to help. He claims in our best interest, what BS that is. Sad Republicans in Congress have not condemned what he has done because it is disgusting.
Trump has caused the recent increase in prices by not finishing off Iran as many Generals advised but as I have said before, he gave them a CEASEFIRE.
I am sure Sen. Graham is disgusted with Trump and what he has done. His handling of Iran will cost the members of the house and senate this coming election and it will get worse having the Liberals back in power.
Thank you Trump for F**king up the country in only eight months and we had such hope. Many of us voted for you and today I don't think you have that support any longer and now we have two years of a "LAME DUCK" for a leader coming.
UPDATE:Citing two unnamed U.S. officials and a Western official, Reuters reported that people "inside the White House" instructed the Pentagon to impose speed restrictions on Starshield terminals used by Ukrainian forces for frontline drone operations.
A senior Ukrainian official told Reuters that Kyiv was also told this was a White House decision after reaching out to the White House, State Department and the Pentagon.
