The U.S. is preparing a new round of sanctions against Russia to be announced Monday, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley said Sunday. In an interview on CBS’ Face the Nation, Haley said the sanctions were part of the “strong message” the Trump administration has sent on the use of chemical weapons in Syria, with Russia caught in the middle for “propping up [Syrian President Bashar] Assad.” “You will see that Russian sanctions will be coming down” from the Treasury Department, she said. “Secretary Mnuchin will be announcing those on Monday, if he hasn't already.” In an earlier interview with Fox News Sunday, Haley said U.S. relations with Russia had become “very strained” in recent days. But Russia’s involvement “with all the wrong actors” in Syria, Iran, and Venezuela “continues to be a problem,” she said. “Right now they don't have very good friends and right now the friends that they do have are causing them harm. I think they’re feeling that.”

2. Correct me if wrong but as I recall Trump did not implement all of the santions approved

by Congress a while ago. He did some, but not all.

3. Mueller and the Southern

New York State fed office must have the pocket of gold.

Putin picked a idiot, cause he's such a smart man himself.

5. Last week an official from our military said what the US should do but the moron

needs to approve it but he won't. He said first we need to find out how much and where Putin has his money and to let the world know. He said our cyber people should be blocking the Russian cyber attacks. Also, to attack them by shutting down the Russian power grids, computers, etc. Of course the moron will never approve any sort of retaliation for interfering in our election, getting into our computer systems and power grids, ..... We are sitting ducks for Putin.
