  1. Congress has tied Trump’s hands on Russian sanctions (they should have handcuffed him) Trump will sign a Russian sanctions bill, even though he thinks the country’s election-meddling is “fake news.” By Brian Resnick@B_resnickbrian@vox.com Jul 29, 2017, 11:35am EDT President Donald Trump will sign a bill imposing sanctions against Russia, the White House announced Friday night. The legislation enshrines into law sanctions that the Obama White House placed on the country for meddling in the 2016 presidential election, and imposes some new sanctions on Russia, Iran, and North Korea. ** Congress “has handcuffed” Trump on this issue. It passed the Russian sanctions bill with a veto-proof majority (419-3 in the house, and 98-to-2 in the Senate). By signing the bill, Trump avoids a potentially embarrassing moment where members of his own party vote to override his decision** The bill also limits the president’s power to roll back sanctions, establishing a “congressional review process that would allow Congress to block the White House from taking steps to ease sanctions if it wanted to,” as Aleem wrote. (Also remarkable: Congress passed a major piece of bipartisan legislation that limits the president’s powers.) Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump In other words, Russia was against Trump in the 2016 Election - and why not, I want strong military & low oil prices. Witch Hunt! Trump supporters are a THREAT TO US DEMOCRACY..
