Washington — Almost a dozen Senate Republicans (click here) broke with the White House Tuesday on Russia, voting to move forward on a resolution that would maintain sanctions on companies linked to oligarch Oleg Deripaska....

The legislators that stood up for the US Constitution need to sue the White House for violating the Constitution and allowing the US Treasury Secretary dissolve sanction legislated into law.

Latvia. Little Latvia is standing strong on Russian sanctions and Trump can't even do the same.

Latvia (click here) will continue to maintain the sanctions against Russia until Russia begins to observe principles of international law, according to the would-be government's declaration, informed LETA.

The declaration says that Latvia will continue to protect the interests of Latvia and its citizens during the Brexit process. Latvia wants the relations between the European Union and Great Britain to remain close and constructive in both economics and security and defense areas, says the document.

It also says that, during the talks on the EU budget for 2021-2027, Latvia will support allocating funds for new priorities and pursue its individual interests regarding the budget. These include opposing reductions in the Cohesion Fund's allocations and the Common Agriculture Policy's financing, as well as ensuring funding for science and research, and regional energy independence.

The government declaration states that Latvia will continue to be an active member of international organizations, in particular the EU, NATO, and OECD, and maintain its Western values and ties. The government will also work to contribute to improving the EU's foreign and security policy in order to make the EU stronger....

Russia is a menace and right now Russia believes it is able to do anything it wants. That is not the place where democracy and freedom lives. The people of Europe understand the cruelty that exists in Russia and they are strong. Americans have to be as strong and resolute to end the corruption brought by Trump.
