The behavior of the U.S. senators clamoring to be with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reflects a certain level of disconnect that needs to be witnessed to be realized.
Senators, grown adults awaiting Zelenskyy’s arrival, clinging to every word, clamoring to be first in line for his reception, competing against each other for time standing next to him, the entire event was grotesque and creepy. WATCH:
Shortly after the guided tour of the upper chamber, the Golden Child was carried on a gilded chariot into the viewing chamber while trumpets blared, senators took turns bringing forth their taxpayer funded indulgences, and Senator Jeanne Shaheen knelt down at his feet and peeled Zelenskyy’s grapes. Yeah, that’s the vibe.
The “Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026” was then advanced by the Senate in an 86 to 12 procedural vote teeing up the bill for final passage in the Senate later this week. However, I would challenge people to READ THE BILL, it’s only 61-pages.
Within the bill you will note almost everything within the law is left to the enforcement discretion of the President; which normally would not be of great concern, however, given the punishment for violations – things may get sketchy depending on who is in office.
A foreign person who “undermines the peace, security, political stability, or territorial integrity of Ukraine;” and/or “undermines the democratic processes of Ukraine,” will be in violation of the U.S. law and subject to fines, travel or visa restrictions. [Page 13, page 28] As a consequence, any person who may be critical of Ukraine -undermining the democratic process via criticism- can be punished by the U.S. President.
Page 36 applies a 100% U.S. tariff against the import of any country’s goods into the USA if that country purchase energy products from Russia (with qualifiers). The intent of that section is to stop China and/or India from purchasing Russian oil and gas.
As noted by Politico, ‘the revamped bill expands the number of Russian entities that would be subject to mandatory sanctions — including Russia’s shadow fleet of ships ferrying oil — but it also grants Trump broad waiver authority.’
The House is in summer recess, so things may stall even if the Senate (very pro-Ukraine) passes the bill.
The democrats are siding with Ukraine and declaring war on Russia- NATO be damned- as they undermine Pres. Trump against the sworn enemy Iran.
its not just the democrats.
trump can always veto.
and he could always instruct ratcliffe to stop this.
I should have included the republicans-
IOW – both wings.

They are not standing up there because they are so dedicated to “the cause.”
It is allll about the Benjamins; no doubt.
Did you mean, SoTH Mike Johnson?
Can a veto be overturned by 2/3 majority vote in senate?
2/3rds in both bordellos.
red war p*gs on the right blue p*gs on left….there more those beauties than..2/3…altogether..
What we need to do is write every sensor and tell them if they vote for this bill they lose your vote. Republican or democrat
Along with every GOP, except Rand Paul.
Lets see what PDJT has to say about this. Is he getting boxed in with Iran and now with this little Nazi?
what do you mean “boxed in”?
trump chose not to cut this nazi off on day one. he chose to go to war with iran.
Thankfully, clearly, you’ve got all the inside details on POTUS’ decision making. Feel free to share them stop with the constant trolling bro, it gets old.
wherein “trolling” = sentences you don’t like?
….and VSGPDJT find out they do not let him have a upper hand over ..Z….
This is to come I believe soon these buffoons are creating weaponry against God, Almighty. It’s not going to work out very well for any of them..
1 Behold, a day is coming for the LORD when the spoil taken from you will be divided among you.
2 For I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city will be captured, the houses plundered, the women ravished and half of the city exiled, but the rest of the people will not be cut off from the city.
3 Then the LORD will go forth and fight against those nations, as when He fights on a day of battle.
4 In that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which is in front of Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split in its middle from east to west by a very large valley, so that half of the mountain will move toward the north and the other half toward the south.
5 You will flee by the valley of My mountains, for the valley of the mountains will reach to Azel; yes, you will flee just as you fled before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the LORD, my God, will come, and all the holy ones with Him!
6 In that day there will be no light; the luminaries will dwindle.
7 For it will be a unique day which is known to the LORD, neither day nor night, but it will come about that at evening time there will be light.
8 And in that day living waters will flow out of Jerusalem, half of them toward the eastern sea and the other half toward the western sea; it will be in summer as well as in winter. God Will Be King over All (Zechariah 14:1, NASB)
All of the present day governments of Western Civilization-including the United States of America-are controlled by the demonic forces of Satan.
Today’s political leaders in the West are thoroughly corrupt. They lie, cheat, steal, rape, and murder with impunity.
I pray that more people wake up and realize that we are at war with Satan. May God deliver us from evil.
Ephesians 6: 10-18
“Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.
Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.
In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.”
Furthermore, Colossians 1 says Jesus created those powers, and Psalm 82 says because those powers have ruled unjustly that they will die like men.
You are so right Bruce. I don’t understand why everyone can’t see the evil.
“A foreign person who “undermines the peace, security, political stability, or territorial integrity of Ukraine;” and/or “undermines the democratic processes of Ukraine,” will be in violation of the U.S. law and subject to fines, travel or visa restrictions.”
Democratic processes? What democratic processes? The man is a friggin’ dictator!
“A foreign person who “undermines our greed, grift, and avarice, or the territorial integrity of our puppet State;” and/or “exposes the undemocratic processes of Ukraine,” will be in violation of the U.S. law and subject to fines, travel or visa restrictions.
FIFY
Does that apply to the clandestine op that set up the Ukraine v Russia “war?”
watch for that aspect of this law to get interpreted broadly against a lot of people who are not fans.
It’s coming. It’s all coming. Everything that can be used against dissenters legally, will be. This is how despots subjugate people, by making laws and, therefore, making it legal to do so. They aren’t dumb.
Having said this, making something immoral legal does not make it lawful. Even when done in the name of government. Legal and lawful are two very different concepts.
I believe you already know all this, though.

The inclusion of the USA in their World War III games is so evident it’s a failure if they don’t get us to put boots on the ground.

Won’t entertain securing our own elections, but drool over this…this…corrupt grifter/despot?
Ask these “senators” (lower case “s”) who Gonzalo Lira was…
Wait for the blank stares.
“To be sane in a world of madmen is in itself madness.”
~Jean-Jacques Rousseau
RIP Gonzola Lira.
Never forget.
and we are supposedly supporting that regime that murdered him. Unreal.
His father certainly thought as much, and said so.
RIP Gonzalo….real journalist….
Thanks for reminding the world about Gonzalo Lira.
He was a brave worrier till the end.
He was an old school journalist and war correspondent, Jim.
He was probably considered a dinosaur, the last of what was once considered an honourable profession. Murdered because he was a truth teller. And “they” just could not have that…
He is in a much better place now Betsy.
He is in good company.
Together with all the other truth tellers persecuted for their heroic efforts to enlighten the masses .
All of whom have the satisfaction knowing they were squarely on the right side of history.
He is, dear sir…
And I pray his father has peace in knowing it..
I hope he was also a brave warrior.
Thanks for the spell check Sturmudgeon.
When it comes to politics especially we should expect traitors to be in our midst and should heartily laugh at them when they want to be honored. Scorn and derision should be the stock in trade of every liberty-loving patriot. Oh, and arms. Lol.
The draft NDAA has a section in it which instructs the Executive Branch to directly and tightly integrate America’s defense industrial base with Israel’s defense industrial base, giving Israel complete access to every military and defense technology secret America has in its military arsenal.
And we all know where that ends up. Israel sells everything we in America know about advanced military technology to the highest bidder.
100% against it.
That is not what that section says. I thoroughly enjoy how certain people read things into the proposal that are just not there.
There are no democratic processes in Ukraine to undermine. Ukraine is about as democratic as North Korea.
And by what moral or legal right does the US presume to tell country A (which it is not at war with) that they may not engage in peaceful trade with country B (which the US is also not at war with)? The US government keeps acting as if it is the boss of a global empire, and that “national sovereignty” does not exist for ANY country without our permission.
We have met the Evil Empire, and it is us.
It’s the senators themselves who have undermined the peace, security, political stability, or territorial integrity of Ukraine
💥👍
and yet it is us who will be debanked, prevented from flying, and other outrages, if we speak our mind.
and yet still, we will consent.
I wish the UniParty would show that much excitement and interest, for an HONEST ELECTION, and pass the SAVE ACT.
I am not thinking these B!@#$%^S are M!@#$% F!@#$%^S and I am not even typing it.
Spit.
Why this disgusting display by US Senators…what is tiny VZ handing out? I know it’s couldn’t be lollipops.
This is so nonsensical to me.
I don’t recognize So Called Ukraine! To me it’s just a made a Soviet Republic. Austria has the right to what was Galicia as far as I am concerned. They transformed (a total redesign) Lviv into an Austrian city they called Lemberg.
If only people would look at a map of Europe circa 1939 and superimpose it on a current one.
Also up to WWI. Today it’s like Austrian Galicia never existed yet it did from 1772 to 1918. Anyone that knows Austrian city design and architecture can see that Lviv / Lemberg is an Austrian city. Also the industrial growth that took place in Austrian Galicia.
Oh Barrasso… traitor
Funny how the Senate can get this crap bill passed and they can get Clayton confirmed but can’t pass the SAVE act or confirm Todd Blanche. you truly cannot despise the Senate enough.
The Uni-Party and EU compatriots will have their WW III with or without PDJT, in honor of Lindsey’s passing, of course.
👆
The US top ally Japan buys oil from Russia.
This will not go over well
So, …Katie Britt is the new Lindsey Graham?
At least she conforms to her gender-at-birth.
Otherwise, it must be noted that she is rather young, but she learned the war-grift
pretty damn quick, didn’t she now?
I thought that was her. She has been a giant disappointment
Every Congress member and Senate member that bows to the Ukrainian Nazi is on a leash of the Clowns In Action.
I only wish our senators could put that much enthusiasm behind passing the SAVE act. They are a monumental disappointment to me.
Didn’t McCain “undermine the peace, stability, etc. of Ukraine?” I remember at the end of December 2016, McCain and Graham were all in Ukraine trying to get them to start a war with Russia just in time for President Trump to begin his first term. They claimed that NATO would protect Ukraine, even though they were not a member. Video attached:

Why weren’t they sanctioned?
I was so pumped up after Trump’s first visit in the Oval Office with the Ukranian dwarf dictator. Trump said we held all the cards. I guess I expected way too much. It seemed like he did an abrupt turn.
No more pharmaceuticals from china !!!
That will show them !!!
Are we starting a military draft in 3 weeks?
Can’t we remove every slimy one of them?
These Judas’s just outed themselves. They are in alignment with the GLOBALISTS, UK, EU, NATO, and the green goblin. They are, in effect, backing the UK drone facility, the new PM Andy Burnham and that green dwarf z. Traitors.
Isaiah 33:1
[1]WOE TO you, O destroyer, you who were not yourself destroyed, who deal treacherously though they [your victims] did not deal treacherously with you! When you have ceased to destroy, you will be destroyed; and when you have stopped dealing treacherously, they will deal treacherously with you.
If Putin finished off Zelensky today, my money would be on him having been fast tracked to hell…joining Lindsay.
Not VVP but Iranians they are greatly piss off and they do not have any restrain toward anyone expect CHINA/NK/RUSSIA……so do not be surprise….
Yeesh. Risch and the Dem Senator on the left of Z looked terrified to me.
It had the feel of slaves who needed everything to go perfect for the master so he wouldn’t be displeased and make them his whipping boys. Then the other fan girls were just all fan girly.
You mean like cancelling elections?
President Trump needs to prepare for the war by imposing a draft on all illegal aliens, H1B visa holders, TPS and refugees. Set up the training facilities in Europe and leave them there until there is world peace, oh yeah, let Europe pay for their stay.
You’re advocating giving deadly weapons to them?
What could possibly go r0ng ?
0.o
Did you miss the part about their training facilities to be in europe?
Out of curiosity, given that this Senate version implements financial penalties in a round-about way such as any nation purchases something from Russia can become subject to the terms of this law, isn’t it a thing that only laws that originate in the House that has financial repurcussions can be legally created?
If so, and the House chooses to not originate such a law or incorporate the Senate version into a previously House created law, then this would mean this is simply more kabuki for the press to make the dear Senators who passed this travesty look like they are doing something nice to honor their newly deceased colleague.
Please, please make this just be more kabuki. (sorry any Japanese readers here, but kabuki has become the nicest word to use as a way to say what I really think about these self-absorbed politicians.)
kabuki is a good way to describe it.
When the Strait of Hormuz was blocked most of the Asia nations were affected as that was their primary source of oil. Many if not all compensated by getting oil from Russia.
This bill is so short sighted. Everyone is focused on pleasing Zelensky (and themselves) that they throw away other relationships.
We need Betsy’s pic of the little girl and kitty with the disgusted faces.🤮
Talk about being politically tone deaf! These people actually think that funding billions to Zelensky is popular with the Republican voter! 😎
I don’t think they are “tone deaf,” and I don’t think they care in the least what “the voters”think about funding Z’s money laundering operation.
They are getting PAID.
These Senators are making so much filthy lucre from The Ukraine Caper that they can’t afford to stop.
It’s not a stretch to say that the United States Senate is the most powerful criminal organization in the world.
The law is written & passed by the US Senate.
Citizens of the US are not foreign persons.
Thinking this might be the ‘one’ we’re looking to come. Has an ability to charm to the point of being almost worshiped. Small rising to greatest with a following of leaders that, evidently can/might/will lead to the war of our worlds.
I oppose! Veto Mr President. Just who do they think the are, these senators? Assume late Sen l grahams sister voted for it? Ugh
A foreign person who’ undermines the peace, security, political stability, or territorial integrity of Ukraine;’ and/or ‘undermines the democratic processes of Ukraine,’ will be in violation of the U.S. law and subject to fines, travel or visa restrictions.”
Those clauses apply to Zelensky and his regime, the EU bureaucracy, and the UK political system (which is supposedly no longer in the EU).
It is plainly obvious. To far too many people in “Europe,” it has been far too long since there has been another European holocaust. During the last explosion in which a few European states only a few hundred miles from one another sacrificed hundreds of thousands of their children, that was fabulously profitable! Let’s do it again!
The problem is: they don’t remember. What does the word, “blitzkreig,” actually mean? They would look at you strangely, while staring at their genitals and wondering if they need to switch them . . .
The old fools in congress are enemies of the people of the United States. And truly and I mean truly the elections in our country are rigged. People are not voting for these slugs over and over again, decades of voting for them. This is not in the best interest of the citizens.
I would say that people are voting for ” something new ” to make changes but are being thwarted at every election. These congress rats are on the take, money is flowing into their pockets.
What to do that does not end in violence?
U.S. Senate mental illness on full display there.
That looks like Connecticut’s Senator Dickie Bloomingballs leading the charge.
Its been 5 years already…its time we stop pretending. The Coalition of the Willing includes the leader of Russia too. Nobody except us forgotten American patriots wants America to be great again. Blocking the common sense Save America Act is designed to do just that.
Fake Pandemic, Fake Election, Fake War = The New Normal
Ukraine President Zelenskyy is a wicked, godless leader.
Senators who support him have done nothing to serioiusly work to find terms of peace that would end the war.
I suspect that they are warmongers who are making money through the military industrial complex.
I wonder if the arms manufacturers are also not overcharginging and the government needs a proper audit of spending.
I find it obscene that these senators are allowing Zelenskyy to rip off the American taxpayers.
Please Treepers, inform me how we ended up at the same place with PDJT re: Ukraine, Iran, others as War Pig Nikki Haley would’ve taken us to?
Like, without the reflexive defensiveness that anyone who ever questions his policies, while supporting most of them gets, is someone who is able to put that urge down and engage the subject?
Would we already be in open war with Russia? Would Haley have made war against Iran? While in open war against Russia? WWIII in effect?
Is that the choice we were offered, to be expected when PDJT said he’d have us out of Ukraine on Day One and get us into no more stupid wars?
This one is hard to put down, I feel like I was bait and switched and got the War Pig Haley running foreign policy, not the war-ender Trump I was sold.
Imagine if you will a globalist cabal of installed leaders conspiring to launch a fake global pandemic. Start there.
these people are a joke. Blumenthal, Wicker, the Alabama gal, etc. You really do have to watch this to believe it. Sundance’s description is spot on.
Hopefully, this asinine bill dies in the House. Very dangerous to freedom is this nonsense.
Its a Big UniParty Club and we aint invited…
Trump refused the invitation long time ago.
Look at all those Republicans, whatever that means.
So, according to TIME article, rand Paul is line gop to vote -continuously- against this stupid Russia sanctions bill in all its iterations. The dems who opposed did so for fear of giving trump more tariff authority. .. and they still glorify the late great graham who sponsored this rubicon mess… bad legislation is just BAD!
It’s a TRAP! They are casting lots that they don’t have a right to!
I hope the House attaches the SAVE Act and sends it back to the Senate.
Oh good grief is that our Idaho Senator Jim Risch promoting this ridiculous plan? We are NOT Ukraine’s police force to control Russia. I despise that smarmy little weasel – isn’t this what he was demanding “US protection” that VSGDJT said no to?
Can he just go away!
POTUS VETO!
Zelensky is fomenting violence against Americans who do not agree with supporting him in Ukraine and he is using our own Senators to do so . . .
or, our own Senators are using Zelensky to foment violence against Americans who do not support the war-mongering from which these Senators are deriving a great benefit.
