The Senate voted overwhelmingly Wednesday to allow Congress to block any efforts by the president to scale back sanctions against Russia, and to strengthen those sanctions in retaliation for Moscow’s alleged interference in the 2016 election and its actions in Syria.

The vote of 97 to 2 is a sharp rebuke to President Trump’s posture on Russia and his resistance to the intelligence community’s assessment that the country was behind efforts to influence the election he won.

The two senators who voted against the measure were Republicans Rand Paul (Ky.) and Mike Lee (Utah).

Trump has repeatedly and openly doubted the intelligence community’s finding that Russia meddled in the presidential election. While his administration has not ordered a rollback of any existing sanctions, lawmakers have been concerned about his conciliatory, and at times even forgiving, rhetoric about Russia, as well as recent moves to give Moscow back control over two diplomatic compounds that the Obama administration reclaimed in late December.

The administration said Russia had been using the facilities for intelligence gathering; when they were shuttered, 35 Russian operatives were also expelled from the country.

“This administration has been too eager, far too eager in my mind, to put sanctions relief on the table,” Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Wednesday. “We cannot let Russia’s meddling in our elections go unpunished, lest they ever consider something similar again.”

Trump’s campaign is currently the focus of congressional and FBI scrutiny, as investigators try to determine if there was any collusion between his supporters and Russia. The president has accused Democrats of pursuing a witch hunt against him.

The president’s team pushed back Wednesday against the legislation, with Secretary of State Rex Tillerson warning lawmakers against passing anything that might tie the administration’s hands.
Tillerson is the guy with $200 million in Exxon shares so nice to see he has America Russia best interests at heart

Your Washington Post fake news article: "Trump has repeatedly and openly doubted the intelligence community’s finding that Russia meddled in the presidential election. "

Real life, outside the alt left cartoon reality:

Trump Says 'I Think It Was Russia' That Hacked the Democrats

In that same bill are sanctions rebuffing Obama's grand gift to the terroristic Iranian mullahs as well, imposing sanctions

So contrary to the Washington Post propaganda it's not just an "anti-Trump" bill at all

Mawaahhh wicked, Fucking crybaby sure I do....you have some orange lying fuk at the top of the tree, his hobbies include;

Lying
Lying like an insane lying fuk
Lying about lying
Propagating fake news – which really just means more lying
Filling his coffers with tax payers loot
Not paying any taxes
Playing golf
Cosying up with the Russians
Obstruction of Justice
And on and on

…who just got bull whipped by the senate. Trounced is a good word, slabbered is better. Despite him sending his wee minion and his $200million Exxon shares out to try and stop the hoax, or was it witch hunt, tremendous witch hunt - that one?

it just occurred to me is this Senate seizing power from Comrade Orange?
because that is more than just a smack on the arse - mind you he can actually write an executive order - if he has any paper left...they let him have crayons right?

I reckon he is just mental enough to write one and have the senate locked up in the bin of many loons

No, I said he's too incompetent and stupid to be Hitler.
But if he wasn't, he would be just as bad.

Which is why the White House opposes it, because it's not "anti-Trump."

Nothing to do with the Russia/election thing -- everything to do with whether Trump (or any other president) can act unilaterally to remove sanctions.

If that's fake, go explain it to McConnell.

Um, yeah, they really do have that authority. Checks and balances and all.

Trump can veto it. And Congress can override the veto.

Betcha he wasn't arguing that the Congress has no authority to overturn presidential decisions under the Obama presidency...

Obama ignored laws that were inconvenient to the radical alt left agenda

See "Dreamers" obstruction of justice files for a great example of that

Sorry it took a while to answer.

Rand Paul is a Republican that actually believes the central government should NOT micromanage the individual AND that no one part of the government should have unilateral power to do as they please.
It's the latter that surprises me when compared to his vote.

Maybe he hit the wrong button. Who knows?

Congress ratifies treaties, but does that power extend to this ? I think there is some doubt, but the fact is I am done reading the Constitution looking for things. Let the supreme court read it for a change.

"Don't blame me, I voted for Gary Johnson. "

You threw away a perfectly good Hillary vote ? No more democrat pussy for you.

Anyway, next is to see what the house of reps does on this. They have to be veto proof as well or it does nowhere.

And actually it doesn't matter, Russia is laughing at those sanctions.
