Three American departments, State, Treasury, and Commerce have come to an agreement on sanctions.

This will affect over 200 Russian entities across the arms industry and other key economic sectors.

It will also extend to companies within China, the UAE, and Turkey.

The Department of the Treasury issued a statement where it announced the expansion of its sanctions list by an additional 130 positions.

These new restrictions are designed to counter attempts to transition the Russian industry towards war production and efforts to evade present limitations.

The newly implemented Treasury Department sanctions will impact over 40 Russian companies that produce and import industrial tools, such as 3D printers, for example.

This regime is also levied on technology companies involved in arms production, as well as financial institutions and banks that support the arms industry.

Companies from Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, and China have also been included on the sanctions list.

The reason is these companies are allegedly involved in providing the Russian arms industry with electronic components and other technologies that are subject to U.S. export controls, in conjunction with circumventing financial sanctions.

And the game continues.

Continuing hostility towards Russia by America is simply more foolishness.

But the USA wants to keep the pot boiling and promote wars all over the world. Russia is no threat to the USA, and by now there should of been some kind of truce. Russia has its own sphere of influence which is no business of America. But we have a bunch of stupid morons in the Biden administration, who have no clue about geopolitical realities. Ukraine was no concern of the West, but the West has thrown multiple billions at that corrupt regime, plus depleted its own military capability to foolishly fight a proxy war.

Israel, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Palestinians are working on a secret peace agreement. It does not include Hamas, or Hezbollah or Iran. Hence this war. This agreement would solidify the US position in the ME, hence Russia's war.

These countries are fighting because if they don't they are about to be losers in the upcoming new world order.

BRICS is proof that there is a powerful contingent fighting the rule of the US dollar.

This is why we are going to WW3 and why everyone is threatening to go nuclear.

Exactly.

If there was any lens with which to understand geopolitics presently it is through this lens.

Someone should have gone "nuclear" on Biden, locked him up, and thrown away the key.

I will be accountable for what I did, and locking up Biden is not something I was called to do. Preaching the gospel and following the Lord Jesus, forgiving others, these are things I will be judged on.

My comment was for everyone personally, I am much less concerned with what other people should do and how other people should be judged and much more concerned with my own eternal judgement. A thousand years from now I think everyone will agree that your own judgment is far more important to you than Biden's.

Yep, just let the tyrant move in an annex territory from his neighbors. Staying out of that never went wrong.

That being said, I wouldn't waste billions on the corrupt and quasi-authoritarianism of Zelensky. I would, however, restart natural gas and oil mining here in the US and give Europe an alternative to Russia's fossil fuels. That could end things fairly quickly AND get our dollar back to more stable territory.

But, the goal of the Left is to destroy and rebuild, which is why we MUST vote for Trump in 2024.

By rights, he should be impeached and voted out of office by the Senate, but "right" is not what the US is about right now.

The only thing worse than a Biden presidency is a Harris presidency. Think about that before we impeach Biden.

Nope. If he is guilty of selling out the country get rid of him.

It would be exactly the same. The same people pulling Biden's strings will make her dance as well.

I wouldn't worry about it, once we are hit with a surprise attack that utterly cripples the US and destroys us as a superpower forever, at that point even the supporters of Biden/Harris will support Trump returning to office. However, I do expect 60 million to die in this attack, so there is that.

Well, there could be a force of 30 to 50,000 Chinese and Russian forces in country already, with military intel, conveniently supplied by a wandering spy blimp. They have plenty of land around military bases to gather and plan. And there are thousands of terrorists in our country. Who knows? Maybe there are tactical nukes here as well. 60 million may be a conservative estimate.

I'm not sure it makes much difference, they're both so woefully inadequate to the office.
