Trump imposes harsh sanctions on Putin's Inner Circle

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration imposed new sanctions on seven of Russia’s richest men and 17 top government officials on Friday in the latest effort to punish President Vladimir V. Putin’s inner circle for interference in the 2016 election and other Russian aggressions.

The sanctions are designed to penalize some of Russia’s richest industrialists, who are seen in the West as enriching themselves from Mr. Putin’s increasingly authoritarian administration.

Effectively, the action prevents the oligarchs from traveling to the United States or doing business or even opening a bank account with any major company or bank in the West. It also restricts foreign individuals from facilitating transactions on their behalf.

Elizabeth Rosenberg, a former sanctions official in the Obama administration, described the penalties as “fairly muscular” and predicted that more sanctions are probably coming.........

How fucking stupid can they get?

Do they even think before talking?

Do they even bother trying to keep up with all the lies they sell?

Ironic that NYTimes won the Trump award for fake news article last year but apparently they got this one right. Not that I don’t believe the article, I guess it could be true but usually you guys call what they publish fake news. I’m sure this is real, right?

This is what I mean when I wonder whether these fucking jackasses have the capacity to stop and think for themselves.

Would any of this be happening if Trump was having his strings pulled by Vlad?

Hey liberals,

Let’s go over Putin’s evil plan to destroy America.

- Get Trump elected
- Secure the borders
- Rebuild the military
- Create booming economy
- Create US energy independence
- Fix & secure national infrastructure

Yeah...

Makes total sense.

you left out "increase sanctions against Russia" and "bomb Russia's allies" and "enter peace talks with NK" and "silence Iran" and "restore NATO's financial commitments from all nations involved"

all stuff that DOESN'T enable Russia to extend their influence like they have done under Clinton and W and Obama

more proof, they're just fucking idiots

I don’t come on here “Every fucking day” complaining about things like you do because my life is fucking fantastic. I know you hate to hear that because you think you are so much better than me. You might have had 8 years of suck but I’ve had 62 years of WINNING because I control my own life and don’t give a fuck who the President is. But keep doing what you do on here because it gives me things to laugh at as I live my fantastic life. Carry on sheep

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The sanctions were widely reported by several news organizations, hence I assumed they all knew about them and I assumed people who want to participate in political discussions knew about them too

Silly me

funny this is the first you mentioned of the NYT article and suddenly you're acting like you've discussed this all along? Do any of you sheeple actually look at something objectively? it's absolutely fine to bring this up 4 months later and say you didn't know about it until today because, well, i certainly didn't. c'mon Will...if this was some major talking point for you and your right wing cronies it would have a fucking STICKY in the poly forum.

you guys are making me think this world is nothing but sound bite jerkoff machines from the left and right. surely there has to be someone out here that dives below the cut and paste rhetoric?

rolltide · Jul 19, 2018

btw, if I'm being presumptive in my criticism please show me the thread from April where this article was discussed and I will happily recant. my guess is the only reply be an attack that I'm some socialist or, more likely.....crickets

WHAAAAAAT? what are you smoking tonight? Who said it was discussed here? Who said it was important to me back in April? kinda busy back then anyhow, my activity around here is significantly less

My argument is pretty clear, the criminal corrupt colluding democratic media and the fucking idiots who's minds they mold are attacking Trump this week for being weak on Putin and Russia. They're saying it's obvious Putin has something on him, they're axing why is he afraid of Putin? What is Trump hiding?

So I simply point out the truth about those issues, and those sanctions back in April NOW BECOME MORE RELEVANT. They prove their narrative this week is a crock of shit, they prove the media will say anything and purposely ignore mitigating factors, they prove the media and anyone who buys and sells this poppycock are liars (or totally uninformed) and extreme hypocrites

Let me know if you need any other clarifications, I'm here to help

and to think I wouldn't or couldn't respond to any question you or anyone asks me is rather silly, while posting crickets after 5 minutes is actually pretty darn funny

I think Trump and Putin have a wink, wink, nudge, nudge, Bob's your Uncle
thingy going on. Trump is the master of the deal and Putin is a lot smarter
than people give him credit for. I won't speculate on what's going on between
the two men but when it's all said and done I think it will be beneficial
for both parties.

And don't forget about Netanyahu, he's a player also.

Both men are smart, both men a shrewd, both men take risks, both men know how to win at the end, it's just that Putin doesn't have to deal with the fucking idiocy that is our media

In all seriousness, I have more respect for some communist propaganda machine press than I do the lying fucking idiot scumbags that make up our press. The communists don't have much choice, our media freely chooses to be the assholes that they are
