President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for Treasury secretary, Scott Bessent, testified Thursday before the Senate Finance Committee. He said that the sanctions against Russia were not enough. “If I’m confirmed, and if President Trump requests, and as part of his strategy to end the Ukraine war, that I will be 100% on board for taking sanctions up, especially on the Russian oil majors, to levels that would bring the Russian Federation to the table,” he added.

Makes sense. Putin looks weak with how things are going in Ukraine and Trump likes the whole dictator ruling and conquering with an iron fist routine. Plus, any compromat they have is basically meaningless at this point. He can’t run again and if evidence of him committing even more crimes comes to light, exactly nothing will happen and no one will be surprised. It will be totally forgotten after a news cycle.

Holy shit that’s hilarious hahahaha
Putin spent its economic, military, and political credibility on these goons and this is their return on investment. Great job Vlad, you just elected a Yeltsin *and* gave him a bunch of money and guns.

People are still trading with russia.
People are allowed to cross the russian border.
Data/etc cables with russia remain unsevered.
Of course they’re not enough. A cancer needs to be carved out, not fed.
