Former US presidential candidate Senator John McCain and Speaker of the House of Representatives John Boehner are among the nine Americans banned from Russia under sanctions imposed by Moscow.

Russia announced sanctions against US officials in retaliation against US visa bans and asset freezes.

White House Correspondent for CQ Roll Call Steven Dennis tweeted the full list of Americans who have been banned by Russia:

If we could just ban them all from coming back,
it would be a start.

Putin is pretty powerful, I wonder if he could ban them from the United States, too?

I think this is Russia’s way of mocking the uselessness of the US Sanctions.

Those sanctioned on both sides will simply laugh at them, and the mocked Obama will have to ratchet it up again to prove his “Manhood”.

Then it will get interesting.

That is the answer. Let Russia keep them and soon Russia will be like America. One big mess.

McCain belongs in Guantanamo with his terrorist buddies. In Syria, he friended the terrorists. In Ukraine, he and his US Senate buddies went there and tried to enable the coup government to start a shooting war with Russia. His goal seems to be the advent of a war of global annihilation.

I have to agree. They are mocking Obama. They think it’s comical and this move proves it.
