The Republican-led Senate voted decisively to punish Moscow for interfering in the 2016 election by approving a wide-ranging sanctions package that targets key sectors of Russia's economy and individuals who carried out cyber attacks.
Senators on Wednesday passed the bipartisan sanctions legislation 97-2, underscoring broad support among Republicans and Democrats for rebuking Russia after U.S. intelligence agencies determined Moscow had deliberately interfered in the presidential campaign. Lawmakers who backed the measure also cited Russia's aggression in Syria and Ukraine.

you can sanction yourselves for running interference for corporations instead of funding GNU/Linux security research and implementing more secure systems throughout Gov. The US has consistently squandered it's lead in IT and totally failed to educated the nation's children in regards to Free Software, programming, security, etc. Politicians have done nothing but shill for MS and apple and now Google. You are ignorant whores.
