x/donald-john-trump
— 4d

— Aug 26, 2026
U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal says a sweeping Russia sanctions bill, described as a “sledgehammer,” could pass the House in September with strong bipartisan support and exemptions to shield European allies. The legislation would target Russian officials, oligarchs, financial institutions, and the “shadow fleet,” authorize tariffs on top buyers of Russia’s oil and gas, and he urged Zelensky to lobby House members for passage.
