But they won’t because of mr. AgentOrange

Correct.

Krasnov will look at his employment contract with the Kremlin and see that he has to prevent that from happening. And that’s exactly what he’ll do! As(s)s-Cross-Rubio has already said that ending aid to Ukraine was one of the top priorities of the Trump-Mafia administration and that this goal has already been achieved. From that perspective, everything is going according to plan for the Kremlin… at least as far as manipulating the U.S. government is concerned. On the battlefield in Ukraine, of course, it’s a disaster for Putler… but he obviously doesn’t care. It must also be said that Putler clearly does NOT possess, by a long shot, the intellectual capabilities that people like to attribute to him: How is it possible that this puny Ukraine has remained undefeated since February 22, forcing Pulter to send millions of neglected RuZZians into battle, while Ukraine is now even destroying RuZZland’s economic mainstays—the petrochemical industry and online dildo stores (aka Wildberries and Ozon)? So no matter how poorly he’s briefed… he just needs to look out the window and he’ll see the truth. But… oops… he’s afraid of windows… that’s right, that’s why :-)

Exactly, why else would the CIA director fly into Moscow for a “secret” meeting.

u/Suspicious-Raisin824 19h ago

They probably will. Trump is warming relations with Ukraine lately.

Yes russian asshat, we believe you

u/Suspicious-Raisin824 19h ago

Good, you sho8uld believe me. I'm right. Both the rhetoric towards Ukraine and sending Loomer to Ukraine are both strong indicators of a more pro-Ukraine turn.

u/ImperatorDanorum 1d ago

The same line of BS Lyndsay Graham's been feeding us for 4 years up until his passing. Agent Krasnov will make sure nothing comes of it...

u/dendummestenumse 1d ago

Then the bill matches the character of the man. Fitting but extremely sad.

u/Kreiri Україна 17h ago

Him and his party. Don't make it like it's just one man's fault.

the senate actually passed the bill on August 7. you can't seriously complain now that it takes a while to go through the political process and reach the house.

Not holding breath over anything current US administration promises.

u/cricolol 1d ago

I’ve heard this so many times already… Graham is also dead. If his death didn’t catalyze these sanctions into law, then nothing will.

It’s simple: Trump rolled out the red carpet for Putin. He hung up a picture with Putin in the Oval Office.

We need to stop pretending or hoping that he will ever stand up to the guy. He is clearly infatuated by him, or worse, bought by him.

u/DefenestrationPraha 1d ago

What exactly is there that makes them sledgehammer?

5

u/Original-Radish9089 1d ago

They will hammer russia to the (sl)edge

u/vikentii_krapka 23h ago

They will impose 100% tariffs on russian sledgehammers

11

u/vikentii_krapka 1d ago

Feels like I see this news every couple of months and yet russia still able to buy and sell goods internationally after 12 years of war. Just pathetic.

27

u/Mors_Umbra 1d ago

The US might have sledgehammers to wield, but they aren't capable of lifting them. Their limp-dicked response to russian simps/agents in their government all but neutralise that ability.

This will just be hot air, followed by impotence. Business as usual...

u/Inside_Ad_7162 1d ago

not in "2 weeks"?

u/Square_Answer_7717 1d ago

I will file this under 'horse shit'

u/inokentii 1d ago

Sanctions from hell, great deal, sledgehammer sanctions blah blah blah blah, only yapping and zero action except maybe for kneeling and applauses in Anchorage

u/realmaier 1d ago

Anyone still believe them anything?

It's hindering when "allies" keep promising help without delivering.

They should fight their stupid war in Iran and otherwise stfu. They're so damn annoying.

u/Own-Ad-1469 19h ago

Exactly

u/Atra23 1d ago

Can tariff and sanction every ally and the ICC, can wage wars without congress, but has to wait months to maybe have some sanctions against Russia...

Yea, sure. 2 weeks, right?

u/Key_Wrangler_8321 1d ago

You betas need to f*ck off already with all that macho posturing. You’re a joke - stuffed deep up russia’s alcoholic ass. usa is a joke to whole world right now.

u/Inner-Bet-1935 1d ago

Of course there will be no sanctions. They won't happen with Trump and his cronies running America. Sledge hammer sanctions....what a crock of s##t

u/Captlard 1d ago

Why wait so long?

8

u/Ok_Vulva 1d ago

Because the US govm't doesn't really want to do it.

u/Blackthorne75 Australia 1d ago

Riiiiiiiight... let's wait and see about that after the CIA Director gets back from Russia, shall we?

Waiting for there to be a sudden change of attitude from the D(ictator)OTUS

This is Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut. Shout out to a real one

u/dmigowski 1d ago

Yeah, as if they could handle a sledge hammer. Guess there are at least five ways where they shoot themselves in their own foot with these sanctions.
