So basically they are going to do nothing.
“The White House said President Biden would soon issue an executive order that would ban new investment, trade and financing by US people and entities in the Luhansk and Donetsk regions.”
He doesn’t have the authority unless we are at war. And we aren’t and won’t be unless congress declares war walking right into the middle of a civil war not related to us. It is un-Constitutional.

The U.S. Constitution, through the Commerce Clause, gives Congress exclusive power over trade activities between the states and with foreign countries.

Good for him.
If they were worried about Russian they’d officer to drop the sanctions
If Putin stops oil export to this country we will see 8 to 10 dollar a gallon gas.
Simply by the panic that would create.
LGB’s sanctions against Russia are meaningless! This is a face saving gesture because he got his a$$ handed to him and lost big time because Russian military advantages and his own corrupt dealings! Won’t hurt Russia at all.
Does anyone think that the U.S. government wouldn’t come down like a ton of bricks on Texas if it were to declare independence?
So Vlad Tepes Putin has basically annexed parts of Ukraine and now the puppet Biden is pretending to invoke punishment on Russia.
So this is the huge punishment that Biden was threatening Russia with? Yawn!
With an American-hating administration firmly planted in the White House, and with no one in the wings wanting to stop it, the beginning of woes and tribulations for this nation is now starting. What puzzles me is how the ones who could stop the Federal government from it illegal destruction of the nation refuse to step in because we are a “nation of laws” and it would be illegal to step in and save the nation.
Joe can do this all day. 👏👏👏👏
Meaningless sanctions. They are not against Putin or Russia, but the two break-away territories.
Weak feckless sanctions whole Biden and the German Chancellor sell out Ukraine behind closed doors to Putin. A face saving measure will happen allowing Biden to take credit, but Putin will be the winner. Also, Putin still has his invasion option. The sign that Putin is invading Ukraine is Zalenski being out of power (assassination, coup, abdication to exile). Putin gets a NATO alliance in disarray, promises that Ukraine will never join NATO, 30,000 Russian troops in Ukraine, ability for Russian troops to transit Ukraine at will, and Party of Regions and the Communist of Ukraine allowed to run publicly. It probably also allows some control by FSB over the Ukrainian SBU.
BFW This also doesn’t bode well for Taiwan, which will face something similar by China this Spring.
So what are these sanctions?
Revoke Nord-Stream2? Nah
Stop buying that 26mil barrels of Russian oil per month? Nope
Realign US military assets? Not a chance! Can barely hold onto Turkey.
Prevent investment in that borsht factory on the eastern Ukraine border? Ya!! That’ll show ‘em
Exactly 2 years ago today.

Vladimir Putin doesn’t want me to be President. He doesn’t want me to be our nominee. If you’re wondering why — it’s because I’m the only person in this field who’s ever gone toe-to-toe with him.— Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) February 21, 2020
This is toothless and dumb. Only hurts the people.
Watch you flank Taiwan, you’re next thanks to Biden’s weakness.
Brandon is an idiot.
Ooooooh...a Red Line.
Biden learned that skill from his former boss, hussein.
Exactly HOW is America to survive for another 1,063 days of this UN-ELECTED, INCOMPETENT BOOB?!?!
