sanctions against russia here

it's just phase 1.
this is the "rub the dog's nose in it" so everyone can see how CLEARLY the "Russians stole the election" ( Democratic meme).
++
now that we're in our righteous ( read HYSTERICAL) mode- we can really show Putin how tough we are!!
( while he retaliates cold war style).

John McCain's blood thirst is slacked for a day, and the Dems are all warm and fuzzy they showed Putin. It's all good.

oh ok. if theres a phase 2 then i will judge when that comes. So far its pathethically weak.

The U.S. government provided new details today that revealed how a state adversary broke into American computer systems and influenced the U.S. democratic process.
In a report issued this afternoon, the FBI and Department of Homeland Security outlined “technical details” that led them to conclude Russian military and intelligence services were behind a massive cyber assault on U.S. institutions, including the breach of the Democratic National Committee that became public earlier this year.
U.S. officials have dubbed the alleged Russian campaign “Grizzly Steppe,” and today’s report was issued shortly after the Obama administration announced new sanctions against Russian agencies and individuals for the cyber attacks.

do you not pay attention to the news?
1.The Slobbering Republicans ( Putin is a "Thug /Murderer/ KGB - all around 'bad guy') are always up for more cold war adventurism.

2.Obama is butt hurt from being kicked around by Putin. so there! take this!

3.The Dem's are still in disbelief their corrupt -no message-plutocratic candidate lost to Trump! *egads -Trump -how did we lose to him?*

so we're in for a few rounds of self righteous indignation until everybody's feelings are mollified -
and Trump can be painted as the Manchurian Candidate ( Siberian candidate?) wrecking his attempts at detente.

ain't America grand? MORE COLD WAR!!
 
the American people are pissed the guy who got 3 million less living breathing Americans votes gets to rule the country



you hate the American people


we hate you back
 
but what are the sanctions.... 35 expelled diplomats where the head is not even expelled is next to nothign.
You don't read fine print do you?

Those are just some of the retaliations. Losing 35 diplomats is essentially losing 35 spies. Yea...that hurts and it's probably a good bet more sanctions are coming and other's on the way.

But hey. I get it. Anything Obama does is wrong and couldn't possibly work cause we all know how much he hates America. Particularly white America. Particularly white Americans who don't have that fist clue about the world 2 miles down the road from them.
 
Yes...even though we haven't heard the particulars of all the new sanctions, and cyber retaliations, this is just meant to set Trump up. I love it. He has to weigh his business interests against national security.

I believe stock in popcorn is through the roof.

...and tic tacs. Invest now!

again if theres a phase 2 ill judge it on that too. but so far it does almost nothing.
 
Hackers based in Russia were behind two recent attempts to breach state voter registration databases, fueling concerns the Russian government may be trying to interfere in the U.S. presidential election, U.S. intelligence officials tell NBC News.
The breaches included the theft of data from as many as 200,000 voter records in Illinois, officials say.
The incidents led the FBI to send a "flash alert" earlier this month to election officials nationwide, asking them to be on the lookout for any similar cyber intrusions.

35 guys have 72 hrs to depart this country. It's mainly intended to embarrass.
The real embarrassment will be having no evidence for the actions.
They hope to avoid it by saying it's really really secret stuff. Internationally that's not flying.
Just when you think BO can't look look more childish....

Do you naively think that's the entirety of it?
 
again if theres a phase 2 ill judge it on that too. but so far it does almost nothing.
Just as Obama's sanctions 'did nothing'. Russia is broke. US now has many allies who are ready to impose more sanctions on Russia.

how many people went to vote and then could not because some KGB Russian dictator had their voters registration disappeared

Russia's economic downturn really had nothing to do with any sanctions. It was the drop in oil prices. If they go back up, the Russian economy will be decent again.
