👉New GOP Talking Point:

➕It's a positive thing that the Russians hacked the 2016 Election!

❗️Except 🍊didn't get the memo!

⁉️Which is it? Did you do it or not?!?
😖Seriously, GOP, you're going to use this as a talking point?!?
❗️Trump is trying to bypass Russian #sanctions...again?

💥What's next, bypassing the Magnitsky Act and taking Russian corrupt oligarchs off the list?!?

💥Trump took forever to supposedly implement the Russian sanctions, now he's trying to block them?

⚡️The sanctions blocked below "were explicitly focused on Russian companies that deal in equipment linked to Assad’s chemical weapons program."

💥This administration's corruption is blatant & right in front of our faces...and gets lost with the constant stream of WTF news, starring porn stars, idiot lawyers and fake summits...

🙏Here's hoping that Trump "helps" out all his equally corrupt GOP candidates!

🙏I'm thinking either Putin or Trump—or hopefully both—end up in a Russian court, on display in a cage in front of a kangaroo court. This is what Putin did to the most powerful oligarch in Russia when he criticized him in 2003.

💥Article by @VanityFair about Russian oligarch Mikhail Khodorkovsky and Putin.

⚡️Joe Nocera from the @nytimes explains how the Khodorkovsky trial in Russia changed everything.

💥Bill Browder also explained what shifted in Russia at that time in his July 27, 2017 testimony in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee. Putin to oligarchs: give me 50% of your ill-gotten booty or you will end up in a cage as well!
⚡️And he also explains why Putin is lobbying so hard against the Magnitsky Act. Because PUTIN should be on the list of individuals on the list who have all their assets frozen and are banned from the U.S.
⚡️The other reason Putin hates the Magnitsky Act, according to Browder, is that he promised protection to his oligarchs if they gave him 50% of their proceeds. With the Magnitsky Act, he can no longer promise this and his cut of the action may be in jeopardy.
